Copenhagen in Aarhus

It's quite obvious, that the movie takes place in Aarhus. So why does the entires cast speak like it's set in Copenhagen? Also, I like the plot, but the story just takes so many turns it's hard to keep up.

Worst movie ever

This movie is so weird and confusing and boring. The only thing that saves it a bit, is the amazing cast. Other than that, terrible.

Don't waste your time.

Boy am I glad I got paid to watch this movie. It's not good. It's actually pretty bad. Malene talks and acts like a pre-teen and the script is in general very bad. Don't watch it unless you want a headache.

Please....

Stop making forced wannabe clever thrillers if you don't have a clue what you're doing please...

This sad attempt is just stupid and extremely boring. Absolutely none of the characters are likable to a point that their deaths means nothing at all to the audience. The lame plot twists are just ridiculous and the story is unbelievable.

And if it's supposed to take place in Copenhagen FILM IT IN COPENHAGEN you cheap fools! If you make a Danish movie you might consider supporting danish film workers and not use Eastern European slaves for extra profit.

4 stars for the 4 female lead actors effort.

Location fail

It's not a great movie. The cast is excellent, but it just goes in too many different directions.

It's hard to ignore the fact, that it's very noticeable not filmed in Denmark. At first I thought they were visiting another country but when the characters talk about locations in Copenhagen and you see streets from Budapest - well... that's frustrating. Why not just rewrite the story if filming location were an issue?!...
