Featured reviews
If you've read the book and know the characters - this film you just spend two hours seeing has no comparison. I know that every one says that when they compare the book and the movie.
The plot is thin, the characters are one sided and with no depth, the boy who's playing Marco is filmed from either the left side or right side - and makes you think, : How can this boy be so important, when he's never in a full frame ?
And full frames we see a lot of with Carl Morch, the main character. Way to many of him talking to him self. When you have such a good actor like Ulrik Thomsen you don't need to say what you think, his mimic tells it all.
I don't mind it being so dark, it's Nordic Noir, but it's just a very bad movie with so many details not being correct or things not put into the right perspective.
It's bad - it's so so bad ... sadly !

Previous 4 movies are masterpieces. What happen to this movie. I was really disappointed. Remake this please. Worst movie of Department Q movie series.
One thing is that all the actors has been changed, but they still carry the same names. That will make anyone compare...
Another thing is that the other stories in the series are quite gruesome.
This story falls flat, and there is not anything gruesome to be told!
It feels like water, where the other movies in the series feels like whiskey.
It should have been a movie on its own. This will never be a part of the other movies in the series.

I miss the other actors even though I like Ulrich Tomsen, but the other Morck was better in the role. Zaki Youssef doesn't slightly compare to Fares Fares in the role of Hafez, my favourite charachter of the books and the movies.
If I had not read the book, I would not have understood anything, and again, they managed to lose me somewhere with an obscure and unspoken plot.
This movie is very low quality compared to the previous ones.

They completely ruined the franchise with this recasting. So sad, was the most promising Danish movie franchise we've seen I a long time.
This is what happens when authors start to take control of movie sets!!!
