    Its a mesmerising bad trip

    Loved it but not for everyone. The constant electric awkward tension, the brutal lagom, the choreography, dark humour, the set design and artwork, the handclap from literally outerspace, the people doing wtf in the background literally all the time... others will surely let it go right over their heads. If you're down, its has so much to take in it is rich in detail but you need to have the right glasses. The weak points are the supporting American roles but that's ok.

    Positive surprise

    I caught a screening of this movie at the Gothenburg Film Festival, and I was pleasantly surprised.

    I hadn't seen any trailers or anything and didn't know what to expect, except that it was a danish teen-movie. It turned out to be a rather scary little movie, avoiding the worst clichés (although it is nothing new, it twists and turns (except maybe for the ending) and never gets predictable or boring) and it's got beautiful photo and very good music (Carpark North) and sound.

    I think the actors did a great job all over - but I can't guarantee anything since that may have something to do with me don't speaking danish... :o)

    I would certainly recommend to see it in a theatre with 800 other people screamin' out loud as I did...

    Kristian Leth should get an Oscar!

    Is Kristian Leth the greatest actor I have ever seen? Most probably - he puts people like Alan Rickman, Robert De Niro and Kevin Costner to shame!

    The script stinks however, but amazingly Leth holds it all together - such is his brilliance. It certainly won't be too long until someone like Tarantino or Woo snaps this guy up.

    Overall I'd give the film 8.9/10. Without Leth it probably would only receive 3.

    Great danish movie!

    I really enjoyed this one! it was very blair witch project when they ran around in the woods, but it wasn't like a big rip-off or something. Tuva Novotny is a very good actress and the other actors did a great job! a movie I recommend!

    Just when you thought it was safe to go back to Danish cinema...

    Midsummer(or Midsommer, as it is called in Danish). What an astoundingly unremarkable attempt at a horror flick. Danish films are very rarely any good at all, and our horror films are probably the biggest embarrassments. I decided to check this film out, as a friend of mine had it, and I could borrow it for free. I knew pretty much what the film was about, and was aware that it wasn't particularly good. When I sat down to see it, I immediately had the same gut feeling that I usually have when I (attempt to) watch a Danish film. This film never really got my interest, and certainly didn't keep it at any point. The plot is poor, and the way it evolved was so clichéd and predictable. In fact, the whole film was predictable and dull. The acting is bad. Nothing else to say. It is just plain bad. The characters are poorly written, even more poorly developed and paper-thin. They are stereotypical as well. The script is incredibly poor, and the shocks are cheap. The film seems overly loud, and about half of the scenes involve the characters drinking alcohol. Are we supposed to care if these people live or die? All they do is drink. Their actions didn't seem to make sense half of the time, either. I barely payed attention to the film, but I could make out that much. I'm not entirely sure how it ends, and frankly, I don't care the least bit. One to avoid. I recommend this only to big fans of Danish films(which would have to be Danish people who can't speak English, since everyone else prefer to watch films that involve actual talent in their production). 5/10
