    Fun, original and deeper than I had thought

    I don't speak the language (like many, I presume), so I hesitated with Wild Men, fearing I'd spend the whole film reading subtitles, which usually means missing out on the acting, facial expressions, and other visual details. Here, however, I really felt that it was all working beautifully, undoubtedly thanks to a well paced script and editing. I had a great time and despite the farcical nature of a few of the scenes (some of which are truly hilarious), the underlying stories of the protagonists are much deeper than you'd expect from the trailer. In hindsight, I think a strength of this film is that it knits a story that uses original aspects of the region (and not only the stunning nature and folklore but also how people interact with each other) while at the same time exploring universal themes that, to me at least, made it not only enjoyable but also deeply contemplative at times. I'll definitely watch it again!

    Great film

    It's a really interesting look into what I think a lot of people may be feeling and experiencing these days. Very touching. Beautiful scenery. A bit of dark humor. Would watch again.

    Go wild in the country

    Absolutely loved this movie, beautifully shot with some stunning scenery and a story that rolls along and keeps you interested throughout. Although Martin, the main protagonist, is a bit of a giant loser it seems, the film takes him very seriously and his adventures with Musa who he meets by accident (literally) feel entirely within the boundaries of possibility.

    It makes you laugh a lot as well as making you wince, the performances are uniformly good and it develops a real Fargo-like feel but without any homage or aping of that production. Even the chocolate box ending made sense in light of everything that goes before it and I came out of the cinema smiling, which is nice in these difficult times.

    Nordish by Nature

    No pun intended - you may go with naughty ... then again, is it nature? Is it circumstances? Also can we "evolve" back? And what would that mean? The first scene itself - well the first where we see our main character walk into a store ... he is beyond money ... beyond material things it seems ... and yet he needs stuff.

    There are many things that show us that he is more than flawed. He tries things and he means well. And yet he goes way over the top - crosses multiple lines to say the least. Even in the beginning - you may find it funny (and it is a movie so it is ok to feel whatever you want to feel), but if it happened in reality .... well it would not be a cool thing to do. But again - movie, so accept it as a fun thing.

    The movie is predictable from a certain point on - but the journey is still fun. The dialog is amazing too - especially the small town ... down to earth things that are being said. You totally feel the police men who don't want to walk in the forest or get wet ... again: in real life you'd hope they would take more pride in their job ... but comedy and movie and all that. I think by now you got it ... and it is funny ... so there is that.

    • Trivia
      The Danish release was delayed after the incident in Norway on 13 October 2021 in which a Danish national shot and killed several people with arrows after an altercation in a grocery store. The film is about a Danish man in Norway, and the poster showed him standing in a grocery store with a bow and arrows on his back.
