Keep in mind, I am in no way a professional film critic. The other reviews mention bad acting but I don't think the acting is bad, the ending has the best acting in my opinion. The script/dialogue is a bit boring, but I guess it's realistic. The ending is confusing and unrealistic and a bit anticlimactic, and left me feeling cheated. I don't think it could have happened in real life in any way, and the aftermath of the scene is not mentioned or shown. The overall storyline and plot is nothing special. Visually and lighting wise it is a beautiful film. Overall I did enjoy it but I will not be rewatching it.

"Please write movie script. It has to have to following present: -grieving protagonist who's trying to solve a case, so there's both inner and outer conflict -a killer who films his acts, Make him a hacker also, to confuse the police. -some tech talk thrown in to add credibility -a sidekick (Roland Moller) who's there just to ask questions on behalf of the audience, so no one gets confused"

Voila... and there you have it. A script without any soul. And actors completely wasted. I have never seen Roland Moller - who's usually good at playing at villain - deliver such an uninspiring performance.

No pun intended - the movie starts off quite strong .. and shows from the start this is not for the faint of heart! So if you are sensitive, if you are not able to stomach, not just violence shown with blood, but with ferocity ... maybe this movie is not for you. There is a lot going on and I reckon it does show the depths a "misguided" human can fall into.

And yes I know I am being nice with my description. And I am not the parent of the individual - how would I react if I were? Well I know I would try everything to help the victims, because however much you may say blood is thicker than water ... we are all humans. We all are someones son or daughter. Why do I say this and make a point of it? Well you will understand if you watch the movie.

Unfortunately the police seem to have missed that point. You would have assumed that if someone knows of the existence of a killer, you would not let them ... well you would at least have them under surveillance ... the very least. So suspend your disbelief ... and don't be shocked ... actually you very likely will be shocked! No prisoners taken ...

This movie is beautifully filmed with good locations, great lighting, well chosen locations, and more. Many of the actors play quite well, but the script leaves a lot to be desired.

The characters have depth, and that great, but the script is extremely depressive and there is zero humor to balance it out. I do not mind dark moods in a movie, but the themes in this movie are like a bottomless pit of sadness.

Overall, I would have rated this 6/10, but the film is extremely violent almost as if the writer is more interested in shocking the audience than to deliver a good story. And near the end, the script falls apart, the story looses realism and everything just stops making sense.

Great cast and acting... I really liked the movie. Some great surprising scenes. I just wished, that the movie was longer. It was rather short time for exploring the plots, character development and story. Som3how shortened a little too much. Again, It was good as a movie, but I think it could have been GREAT as a series(Really Great), as there was so many unexplored opportunities. So if the director and producer reads this, then please make a series out of it. Nevertheless, I really enjoyed the movie. It can be recommended to watch it, if you like serial killer stories/movies/series. Would have given a better score, than 7, if the movie was longer.
