    Good film - worth watching

    IF you've ever visited Iceland, this movie will bring back memories while engaging you in a compelling story. Manages to get a few laughs, too.
    8OneSentenceReview

    Yep, the 9 other positive reviews are right, watch it..

    ..as it will simply grab you with good pace, good actors, good humor and suspense. Dont read too much upfront, as you want the story to unravel.

    Then read all reviews in full afterwards.

    And, you might even be intrigued and want to know more about islandig magic and folklore, that's what I will do.

    Certainly a special film; not perfect, but rarely anything like that around. Meant in a good way :)

    Finally a good film

    This might not be the best film for everyone, but it spoke to me, I felt as though I might have written it If I were in that line of business. It was raw and seemed to clearly show the product of people who understand mental illness and addiction. By far, the most impressive part was that it ends exactly as it should have. There was no disappointment, no wasted time watching. I simply don't have enough good things to say about this.

    Had potential but not that great.

    The good thing about this movie is that it had y attention for almost the entire movie. The unfolding of the story is intriguing, and makes you want to know what's going to happen, but the ending wasn't very satisfying, at least not to me. Too open and unexplained for me. The acting was certainly not bad, and that from the whole cast. Nice landscapes shots also, too bad the story is not really delivering in the end. I guess it's worth a watch, but it's not a keeper.
