Amour entre adultes

"Oh, what a tangled web we weave, when we first practice to deceive." A frustrated middle-aged married man has an affair with a younger colleague from work. One night, he receives a text message in bed. His wife suspects something. The man attempts to resolve the matter. One of them fails and the other does not. This Danish mystery thriller has more twists than a Hitchcockian turnstile. Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. Needless to say, this viewer was kept in the dark until the very end, and then he still wasn't sure. But was it really the end? Only some of the characters will ever possibly know.

WOWWWW!!!! Much better than I expected, perhaps predicted for some, but not for me. I'm not a fan of stories of jealousy and divorce, like soap operas. But none of that, it's very exciting, psychopathic, psychological and terrifying. The two main actors are fantastic! The tension feels raw. The combination of images from start to finish is fantastic, and the story goes from simple to very complicated and scary very quickly. Two selfish psychopaths in a more than vicious circle. This movie blew me away. Don't miss it, and be careful if you don't like horror and creepy stories.

Excellent and terrifying.

Good story and good actors. Nice nordic landscapes. I liked the story and the way it was framed with the detective telling it.

I remember the actor who plays the detective from Borgen and the actor that played Christian from Dicte 😊

I've loved every single Scandinavian film I've ever watched and this one from Denmark is no exception.

It has a suspenseful build up, a shock midway through and lots of twists and turns to keep the audience interested.

The psychology element is not missing so this movie definitely falls into the category of Psychological Thriller, my favorite genre.

Was pleased also to see that Netflix finally decided to depart from its heavy boatload of men's action thrillers and cartoons. There's so much good stuff out there and Netflix always manages to miss out on it all because of its biased insistence on pleasing the males in the audience.

As others have said, good plot with unexpected twists. Middle aged businessman with a baggage of some financial cheating falls for his young associate who demands that he chooses between her and his family. Pretty standard set-up, but what follows is far from what you expect. Murders, blackmail and dark secrets from the past . The script sometimes feels strectched, but hey, its a movie!, keeps it it interesting, makes you wonder hwat happens next!!

I think the surprise ending would be fine as it is IF the characters (or at least one of them) were a bit more likable.

Regardless, a worthwhile film to watch, keeps you guessing to the end!
