Un thriller original, con humor y un montón de cadáveres. La ligereza lo hace entretenido en cierto modo, pero para un tema como vengar a un hijo asesinado, en las condiciones naturales tan duras del entorno nórdico, hubiera preferido una cara completamente seria. Incluso los villanos aquí no imponen suficiente respeto. Y esa poética india positiva, en torno a los igualmente vulgares traficantes de droga como los principales villanos, es algo totalmente extraño. Una extraña combinación cinematográfica, no del todo acertada al mezclar elementos del thriller americano con la valentía europea para jugar con las expectativas del público.

Si esta película se tomara en serio, no puede terminar de otra manera que en desastre. Sin embargo, si la abordamos como una comedia negra o incluso una parodia, entonces es bastante entretenida. Liam Neeson en el papel de un vengador enojado está algo gastado y, aunque tengo mucho aprecio por él como actor, ya no tiene mucho que ofrecer a ese tipo de personajes. Parecía cansado y fue eclipsado por todas esas figuras oscuras del inframundo. El potencial de Emmy Rossum también fue completamente desaprovechado, se podría decir que interpretó un personaje completamente innecesario. Los aplausos son principalmente para Tom Bateman y los guionistas por todas esas ideas con todos esos apodos locos.

I admit that if I knew that this movie was a remake of the strange Scandinavian movie In Order of Disappearance, I would think long and hard about whether or not I would even watch it. Especially since it was done by the same director. This way I was lured in by Liam Neeson, from whom I was expecting a classic action ride, which he has providedin abundance in recent years. However, it was a little different here. The funny moments weren’t funny. The absurdity was rather ridiculously awkward. All in all, I didn’t find anything that would entertain me during the two hours. What’s more, it is a fairly faithful copy of the Swedish original, which renders it just as useless as, for example, Funny Games. It is a shame that Liam Neeson wasted his time here.

A delightful murder mystery where it’s clear to me that its subtle nuances will not be picked up by the average viewer. There are moments that it looks like something from the Coens at their peak. Unfortunately, it has minor flaws. Tom Bateman and Laura Dern cannot handle their roles, fortunately the latter disappears from the scene soon.

Probably the most pointless film I've seen in the cinema this year, and it would be a shame if this was one of Liam Neeson's last roles. The film is a remake of the Norwegian In Order of Disappearance, which I can understand from the American side, because they won't watch European films, but what I don't understand is why the film has the same director, and this is probably the first time I've seen the original and the remake made by the same guy, and that's the stumbling block, because the film is exactly the same. Watching a film where I know who dies, how they die and how it all ends with just different actors doesn't make much sense to me. The humour also didn't work for me the second time around and most importantly the point of the whole film is lost as the original was a sort of black-humoured parody of Norwegian mobsters with beautiful Norwegian locations, whereas this was filmed in Canada and the comedy falls rather flat. Liam delivers his standard, but the villain is considerably weaker, and there's nothing to stand up for in terms of action either. I considered walking out of the cinema. 40% for Liam and the pretty decent craftsmanship, otherwise a waste of time.
