The greatest movie ever made..!
Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.
Too much about the plot just didn't add up, the writing was bad, some of the scenes were cringey and awkward,
View MoreEasily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.
View MoreAre these books in English. I just watched this movie today, and are very sorry that I have missed the series or other movies from this. Would like very much to read the books if I can find them. Are they out there , also is the series out there somewhere, I would like to watch them also. I thought it was a great movie, but I can not speak Much about it, have seen it for the first time today. I thought that it was a little hard to watch But now I understand why it was from reading the other reviews . Had a few holes in it that made you not go to refrig or bathroom, then you where lost. Guess I have been living under a rock or something.
View MoreThis film just doesn't work. No two ways about it. I saw it for the first time back in '98 when it was released and I didn't like it. I just bought it on sale a couple of days ago, 'cause I thought "whatta hell, I'll give it a try". I don't regret for the money I put out for Hamilton, but the fact remained the same.. this movie is pointless, dull and uninteresting.Stormare is usually a delight, but that's when he's making films in the US. Back home he doesn't do the trick. Sure the movie is well made (if you forget the odd stock footage here'n'there), but in the end the only thing that REALLY lifts Hamilton above one star garbage, is Hamill's turn as the bad guy Hawkins. He seriously has fun with the character and is also responsible for the only two good moments in the movie.. "Swedish intelligence, huh? Now there's a contradiction in terms" and when he allows Hamilton to have a word or two with his wife over the phone towards the end of the flick. And that's really pretty much it.** / *****
View MoreI read what another one of my fellow users had written about Hamilton. he apparently thought that it was an, and I quote, "amaricanized piece of garbage". This is completely wrong. It is an excellent action movie and as for the fact that Peter Stormare is playing the leading role, I can tell u that he is the best hamilton ever. Stellan Skarsgård was the last one to play hamilton and he was much worse than Peter Stormare. It's definately a 8/10.
View MoreThis is probably the best Hamilton film ever. Although there`s a few holes in the story,Scwart manages to give us the story of the two Jan Guillou books Ingenmanslan Den Enda Segern. I suppose those holes will be corrected in the TV-series. Peter Stormare is,in my opinion the best Hamilton ever,and getting Lena Olin to play Tessie was also a major scoop. Althogh I don`t think I can ever identify Mark Hamill as anyone else than Luke Skywalker,I think he gives Mike Hawkins the necessary cynicism that the character was given by Jan Guillou.
