POSITIVES…
An entertaining, compelling, and moving story that’s based on Finn Skårderud's hypothesis? Now that's a fascinating idea for a movie.
Alcohol drinking aficionados will probably appreciate this film.
As the plot progresses, the more it gets you interested in seeing how it's going to handle the conclusion to this story.
Fantastic performances by Mads Mikkelsen, Thomas Bo Larsen, Magnus Millang, Lars Ranthe, and Maria Bonnevie.
There's a certain joy and relatability seeing four friends having inebriated fun together.
I would never have guessed that several of the best moments in this film are all about teaching.
One fun scene had a history related test that you should participate in while watching. I'm proud to say that I knew the answer.
"We only drink during work hours."
Thematically has some solid commentaries about life worth addressing.
Those of you who’ve only seen Mads Mikkelsen as a serious tough guy or menacing villain, really need to see his range in this. Just that last scene alone...
NEGATIVES…
First act moves at a deliberately slow pace, which might make some impatient.
Considering the subject matter, there are sequences you all probably expect to see in this movie, and yeah it's a bit on the conventional side.
It's subtitled. I know some people see that as an automatic negative.
There will be people who will unfortunately learn the wrong lessons here.
