Great plot twists. Very intelligent. Everything plausible. Things very hard to find in a movie these days. I'm not a psychologist but I felt like the way the therapy session developed had a very authentic feel but at the same time was exciting and interesting. It's a stark contrast with the average movie today that appears to target a 14 yr old audience.
People say that it's very gruesome and it does have some parts but much less than other movies,and it's only a few short scenes.
I don't usually like thrillers but it's because most are garbage and have huge flaws. Thrillers like this I could watch on a regular basis. The ending in particular was very good but there wasn't really a dull moment.

My instant pick to watch tagged as an underdog turned out to be a monster,A brilliant piece of cinema in every aspect...
Be it a hour glass session, luxurious office space or an finest atmospheric conditions in climax one could crave for a perfect cinema elements....
Take a bow for Anders klarlund for keeping u strangled for nearly 1 1/2 hrs tight session with his twisty screenplay that makes u subliminally guilt and shrink u with a crystal clear screenplay...
Signe Olsen and Anton duo strikes instantly with their weird and methodical performance...can't review for more coz this movie speaks a lot to connect u when u watch it making u to crave for more cinema to experience....
The Last Client: Danish Nordic Noir. Susanne ( Signe Egholm Olsen) is a psychotherapist, her last client of the day Mark ( Anton Hjejle) seems, a little bit odd, paying the receptionist in advance in cash, notes and change. He is soon in control of the therapy session and shows just how murderous he is. She has to endure his game playing , knowing that her family may be at risk. We've already seen Mark at work, arriving at a victim's home dressed as a surgeon. Overpowering the woman he operates on her without anesthesia, removing a fetus which he places in a jar. (Not a spoiler, it's the opening sequence of the film.) This is not the only horrific scene in a film which is replete with disturbing sequences. The sound is very important, being followed on a cobbled street, a torn poster fluttering, someone thinking they heard a scream but dismissing it. There are some important plot twists which cannot be revealed here, perhaps one twist too many. The film is well worth watching though with great performances from Olsen and Hjejle, the tension is maintained throughout the 95 minute running time as the focus shifts from a clinic to woods. Directed & Co-Written by Anders Rønnow Klarlund. 8/10.
Klienten positions itself as a psychological thriller, but ultimately fails to deliver on even its basic promises. The concept is unimaginative, the plot unfolds predictably, and the film seems content to recycle ideas from older, more successful thrillers-without adding any new perspective or depth.
Performances are flat and emotionally disengaged, which only amplifies the film's lack of tension. The script offers little character development, and the dialogue feels mechanical.
Director Anders Rønnow Klarlund shows flashes of competence, but not creativity. He remains stuck in the safe zone of "could have been great," never daring to take narrative or visual risks. The result is a film that lacks identity, avoiding both bold storytelling and stylistic flair.
The ending tries to echo genre classics, but instead lands as flat and uninspired-a pale imitation without substance.

Wow this movie is absolutely brilliant. A masterpiece and a definitive must watch. The acting was sooo good and authentic. The story was very very good. A must watch for every psychological thriller fans! I enjoyed every second of the movie. I think this film will be one of the most underrated of all time. You can compare its greatness to movies like Gone Girl or The Invisible Guest, though it didn't gain that much popularity. I love it and will recommend it to all my friends and loved ones. Such good movies are really rare in this time, what a pity. I can't remember to see anything great like this in the last 5 years.
