Ser du månen, Daniel

Its been a long time since i have been so touched by a movie. The lead actor is excellent and great directing also.

Even though its over 2 hours i was sitting on the edge of the chair for the entire movie and would have kept that position if it had lasted an hour more. I really liked to see how the family was trying to deal with the situation and acting accordingly. By the i saw another review in here naming the actor as the negotiator by the wrong name. His name is Anders W- Berthelsen who also co directed the movie.

Hats off to Daniel Rye and all the other hostages of Isis. I have the greatest respect for all of them.

And RIP to James Foley what a crime he was murdered. I hope all involved in that got their due punishment.

A true story - a story that is as devastating as it gets. Going on a journey with someone who seems not to know what he is about to undergo ... well obviously he isn't otherwise he wouldn't go on this trip of his. Sometimes things just go south ... there is a premise, there is a truth ... and then there is what actually happens or how others perceive you.

Torture is always bad - and there are scenes here that are extremely disturbing ... knowing that they actually happened might make this difficult to impossible for some to watch too. This is not easy - and it's ok if you do not want to watch this. If you do you have to have a strong stomach to be able to watch this through ... there are a lot of things that happen to ... Daniel ... and a lot of things that happen to the viewer watching him and others endure what they have to ... even long after you may think it is over ...

Esben Smed is performing extremely well and strong in the role as Daniel. Fantastic dramatisation of actual events.

Its a movie for grown up adults. Even though its contain some kind of actionscenes, its a drama.

This movie is the exact opposite of a slow-burn, it kicks into high gear very early on and stay there. You won't notice it is a 2.5-hour movie until the credits starts rolling. I was sitting at the edge of my chair the entire time. Strong script plus superb acting make this one a must-see.
