This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

*************READ THIS ONLY IF YOU HAVE SEEN THE MOVIE AND WANT TO UNDERSTAND IT. IF YOU ARE SCRATCHING YOUR HEAD ABOUT THE ENDING YOU REALLY NEED TO EXAMINE YOUR OWN LIFE****************Not to be rude or condescending....so sad how people try to make sense of this film in the most nonsensical way!!! People, it doesn't matter what is in the suitcase (were you waiting to the end to see what was in it to make it complete)..... The meaning of the movie is related to leaving things behind and moving forward. (Try it sometime it will make your life better)The suitcase "symbolizes" baggage from the past that needs to be thrown in the deepest, darkest, furthest hole so then one can move on. One has to give himself/herself time to move on. It is a "journey" (Hint: SPOILER .....Road Trip.... )and in the end you have to throw everything away in order to move on. That is all! Don't look for no action or any answer about what was hiding in the suitcase. The entire movie is about that moment when Mads throws the case away. (Again rinse and repeat...try it your life will be better) Thanks for your time and feel free to comments please !

I had no idea of the concept of this movie, having just plucked it from the Mads Mikkelsen back catalogue, and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. I liked the central character, and there was just enough information and pathos (being generated by Mads) to make him both sympathetic and intriguing. The cinematography was excellent, the pace was brisk but always unpredictable and the car chases were great. I particularly liked the Hungarian section, from the moment Mark hit the deer with his car to the moment he drove his mended car from his kind host's house, I was in heaven. My only real criticism was I would have liked a few more of those human interactions, and perhaps a bit more of a flavour of Mark's past somehow. Nice movie, crisply made, entertaining and a great ending that just left me laughing out loud with wtf appreciation - as a big fan of the existential payoff!

This was an interesting film. From what I've gathered, it was completely inspired by fans; which is a concept I like. The story is a little weak and there are holes in the plot, but the acting by Mads Mikkelsen more than makes up that. Mikkelsen is one of the most dynamic actors out there today; and unfortunately he does not get the credit he deserves. He is able to elevate an otherwise dull film into something worth watching. He is mysterious, charismatic, and able to draw you in. He can control the viewers interests by simply making a inconspicuous stare or changing the tone of his voice. He is by no means a cookie cutter actor. He makes you want to know more about him in this film and keeps you invested in what he's doing and how he's doing it. Definitely worth a watch if you want to see one of today's finest in action.

well, here's the thing when you watched this film. the actor is a very famous one, although not quite likable in certain way, but at least a good Scandinavian actor if you could give him a good screenplay to perform. but if you gave him a clueless script or even a bit ridiculous and clueless one, all he could do was follow the traffic flow, the direction of the storyline to move along or, maybe going nowhere. in this film, we got another aluminum suit case, a larger one than the one in 'ronin', to be goofed around in car trunks or to be carried along by the actor across borders to certain people. what's in it? you'd ask. the answer is 'none of your business. just watch and keep guessing; that's the beauty or ugliness of it." a regular passenger mid-sized or even small sized car by vw would have big enough horse power to follow, to catch up or even to intercept an over-a-hundred thousand $$$$ sports car? like all those mini coopers in 'the Italian job'? givemeabreak, will you?
