It's common knowledge than when sequels and the likes are made, they never quite live up to the originals reputation, and in the case of the Pusher trilogy, this proves truer than ever. The first one was a massive shock, reached cult status and still bears ground.
Part two and three however gets worse by the second. The director Nicolas Winding Refn must be laughed his socks off at the people who spend money watching this drivel - he even openly told the public from the start that these two movies were only made to earn him the money he lost in his American project "Fear X", but it shows so clearly, cause there two films are not thought through at all..
Worst however is the case with part 3, it is so obvious that the director was looking for something this film would be remembered by, and what it is, is some very explicit scenes of a dead body getting halal butchered and then put into a garbage disposal. Going from a good realistic drama (part 1) to a poorly made splatter film (part 3) is not the right way to go.
So many people claim this film is true to nature, but obviously they never experienced the drugs environment in Nørrebro. This is exaggerated and openly tributes extreme violence - it is no wonder the youth of today is getting so mixed up with people like Refn cheering them up, putting more and more fire on the stake.
Shame on you, Refn...and please stop here, don't make part 4 as you've already threatened to do 1/10 - only cause a "0" wouldn't change anything...
