Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
This impressive debut feature from writer-director Anders Thom as Jensen is decidedly offbeat.
– Chuck Wilson,

fresh:
The personality conflicts among the four seem a bit formulaic, as do the flashbacks explaining why each turned to crime, but the narrative is inventive enough to sustain interest.
– Fred Camper,

rotten:
A bleak male-bonding comedy that's a queasy blend of brutal humor and escalating sentimentality, it is overlong, heavy-handed, slow and unpersuasive.
– Kevin Thomas,

rotten:
Mostly, it exults in its inspired potential rather than any brilliant results.

fresh:
It's funny and violent and fast and, er, Danish.
