I'm a huge Danish cinema fan. I've seen many movies from that wonderful country. I've never been a huge fan of Susanne Bier but I thought "open hearts" or "brothers" were much better than this one. One of the main issue with this picture is that it was shot in Italy and of course including Pierce Brosnan is the cast was nothing but a huge mistake. He is far too smooth for a Danish film...This movie contains a considerable amount of clichés, the end is so predictable that it becomes unbearable. Every good danish actor is misused, the plot is so terrible that a new word should be invented to describe it. I'm being harsh because I'm afraid Danish cinema is going to lose its touch with people like Susanne Bier. Keep it inside Denmark without trying to get it closer to "general" cinema. As far as I'm concerned, cinema in Denmark is best represented by Festen or Mifune aka Dogma. Every film Danish directors have made outside Denmark with American or English actors (thinking of Thomas Vinterberg's It's all about love : a complete disaster...) has been a complete washout. Please keep on making good films without feeling the pressure to do something else just because people have started to get interested. Nothing much said about this film because it's so poor, nothing is worth mentioning. It's like a bad TV-show without anything of the brutal and realistic intake on human beings you usually see in Danish movies. It's sadly empty...
