This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

After an opening that shrinks the heart, "The Hour of the Lynx" shows how two opposed women try to help Drengen, a young boy played by Frederik Christian Johansen. Thanks to the slowly progression of the story, it is possible to notice the evolution in the character's emotions. Furthermore, the great use of flash-backs allows the spectator to dive into Drengen's childhood and to see the beautiful relationship between his grandfather and him as well as the unexpected change that turned his life upside down. Thanks to this movie, we learn that even the gloomiest stories could be illuminated by a ray of hope. Because even if the path is narrow, we all can try to become a lynx and find the twenty-fifth hour of the day when we can be happy, far away from the world that surrounds us.

I must say that I had great expectations from this movie. Grabol is one of my favorite actresses because of The Killing series. Nevertheless, this movie is a major waste of time. I know that there is a nuance for the disadvantaged teenager who had a rough time since he is a child. But this does not necessarily mean that he can just enter a house and kill 2 innocent people for nothing. He was searching for his grandfather and he discovered 2 strangers in the house who bought the house. If he had bad childhood after he was taken from this grandfather, does it justify that he can go and kill so violently 2 old people ? What did they do to him besides buying his grandfather's cottage house ? This movie is so naive and it wants us to have symphaty for the criminally insane.

This is not so much a review, it's more a recommendation. I write this mainly because I've read a few negative comments on the message boards.If you are into popcorn flicks, easy going stories without any deeper meaning, if you are a narrow-minded person..etc. etc (you get the point, right?) If you are any of those, then this movie is obviously not for you.If you are a searching soul and attracted to the darker and mystical realms of the human mind and understanding of the spiritual language, then you will enjoy this little masterpiece."Whoever Fights Monsters Should See To It That In The Process He Does Not Become A Monster...and When You Look Long Into The Abyss The Abyss Also Looks Into You"
