Agente H: Conspiração Terrorista

The efficient Swedish agent Carl Hamilton (Mikael Persbrandt) is working undercover in a Russian Mafia that deal two hundred Swedish weapons to Afeghanistan terrorists. Out of the blue, they are attacked by American mercenaries that kill all the dealers and buyers of weapons, but Hamilton escapes. Soon he learns that the mercenaries have the Swedish Martin Lagerbäck (Gustaf Hammarsten) in their base and Hamilton goes to the spot to retrieve him. He also learns that the American Benjamin Lee (Ray Fearon) is prisoner of the group and he rescues him. He discovers that Lee knows that the American mercenaries led by Rob Hart (Jason Flemyng) are forging attacks to leaders to blame terrorists groups and the next target will evolve the Swedish Prime Minister. He teams up with his partner Mouna Al Fathar (Saba Mubarak) to stop Hart and hos crew. Will they succeed?

"Hamilton: I nationens intresse" is a great Swedish action movie with a complex and well built plot. The subplot with Dr. Maria Solska, performed by Fanny Risberg, is forgettable and does not adda nything to the storyline. But the storyline is excellent and the film is worthwhile watching. My vote is seven.

Title (Brazil): "Agente H - Conspiração Terrorista" (Agent H - Terrorist Conspiration")

I've read all the other reviews and I think some other reviewers are speaking about a different film.

This movie was very comfortable to watch. Sure, plot has been done before. But so what, that doesn't mean it cant be done again by different characters. I think all of the characters were portrayed quit convincingly. I was very comfortable with all of the acting and script.

This movie looked and felt more real and more believable to me than many many other top rated action movies.

The direction was spot on. All of the action all went off very realistically.

There are some twists to the plot that I certainly didn't expect. I'm quite sure this is an enjoyable movie for all action film lovers if you don't expect all action movies to be done with the same style of direction.

I do hope to see more of these actors and the characters they portrayed in this movie.

In my personal opinion this movie is a much more realistic version of any "American style" "secret agent" movie. It has action, never gets boring, it has fights and explosions. What differs the main character most from let's say a "transporter", is that the movie is not giving him one of the usual stereotypes of "bad stories from the past". In fact the movie does start with quite a shocking moment, something one rarely seen in other action movies, and later on in the movie there is actually a moment of thought in terms of "even agents are under law". So if you once in a while get bored by transporter 3 and would like to see an unknown but credible face on screen, I think you will like this movie.

Very nice movie from Sweden. I had a quick look at the critics written before this one and must say: Sweden was not famous for Action Movies but this will change if they shoot more like Hamilton. Very nice Cinematography and good casting. I don't see the point in complaining about the plot, the plot is similar to a James Bond or Bourne Story and it works just fine for me. And it did also work for the Swedish audience with about 360'000 admissions two weeks after its opening in Sweden. Looks like they have just waited for this one. If I got it right, then this is the first film out in the trilogy based on the novels by Jan Guillou. So there is a lot to look forward for me. I like it a lot to see when more Swedish productions are aiming at an international audience. We have had this with the Millennium trilogy as well.

That's not me saying or asking that, but what the majority of the people who rented it at our videostore kept saying. So there must be something to it then I guess. He has the stoic charisma of the famous British actor, but you shouldn't really compare the movies (Bond on one hand and this on the other).

Hamilton is a pretty neat and slick movie that has a few things going for it. There is a fight scene towards the end, that is really good. There are a few developments that you might not foresee as they happen and it does not take prisoners. Very uncompromising then, but very good for it too. It's an international cast, with a big conspiracy and a view on the world, that some might feel is very close to reality. Whatever you may think about plausibility though, the movie is very well executed ... no pun intended
