Humbersi The first must-see film of the year.

Roman Sampson One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

Nicole I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

Reno Rangan The third film in the 'Department Q' series that adapted from the book series of the same name. For this the director has changed, the one from 'In Order of Disappearance' and I think it was a good move, but the result was not as expected, at least not for me. As the sequels proceeding, it's losing its charm. Yeah, for me still the first film was the best one. That following parts were just okay, which rely highly on the great foundation that laid in the first.Actually this story was good, despite like any cop-and-kidnapper- chase-thriller. But it was developed on the sensitive issue like faith which made the film a little shy. Because they don't want to bring in any serious debate, but wanted to balance everything as much as possible to be neutral from all kinds of this film series' fans/viewer's perspective. So you will be entertained as the title promised, but at the end if you consider it just a film, then it's okay. Otherwise, particularly from the atheist's viewpoint, its not any favourable.The story has a clear explanation for whatever happens, especially about the film character who commits the crime. So it is a challenging time for what Carl Morck believes in. So far we saw him as a tough cop, but this particular case he's dealing with is like he had never encountered before. There are some great scenes, like chasing a train which is actually a turning point in the narration. But the rest of the film was mostly has cliché like any cop who tries to solve the crime.❝With that attitude you'll never enjoy a pork roast.❞The plot for the crime was focused on the initial stage of the tale. The following narration was highly influenced by the cops and their attempt to resolve the issue. But before coming to that, an intentional connection between the two cases was not definitely a masterstroke as I expected. Although it looked something new on the screenplay, which might have worked so good in the dark and slow paced crime-thriller.While they are, Carl and Acid are looking to decipher the puzzle they have got which is dated back nearly a decade, now they come to know that two kids were kidnapped in a similar fashion. They begin to dig deeper from the previous clue for the new incident. If they are right, it is much closer than they have thought to solve it. But how it helps to plan for the fight and their full efforts which told in the final act with a fast pace.Little disappointing was they wanted to remain those two cops as the heroes. So all the heroic acts were a build up from them alone in most of the accounts for the cinematic edgy moments. Especially how the finale turns out, is not appreciable from the writing perspective, other than giving satisfactory episode to the hardcore fans of the film franchise.For me the locations were awesome, all the scenes shot at the right time of the day and its light that sets a fine tone regarding all the developments taking place. A decent follow-up and surely worth a watch if you had liked previous two films, but don't expect it to be the best in the series. Anyway, still some people think it is the best one so far. Now I think it's time to wait for 'The Purity of Vengeance' if they are on to it.6/10

mrs_jedoje I got a book named Message in a bottle, translated from the original, by Jussi A.O. from my friend, and did not even opened it for a month. Just did not have time. And yesterday I started and finished it. Thats the way I do. Just could not let it go. What a great story. I was so excited. Every character well described. You read it and you feel it,seeing it in front of your eyes. Commented with my husband that will be great if they make a TV show, to describe all characters and details. Jussi wrote a great novel. Then my friend told me there was already a movie too and started laughing. So, I found it, watched it, and from the first second was like : What the...??? Disappointed. Lots of pieces and people been missing, whole story went wrong. If you expecting to see what you read, do not bother. Do not get me wrong, they had a great actors, and scenes, but the story was just weak. Nikolaj Lie Kaas, Fares Fares, Johanne Louise Schmidt, Søren Pilmark, Pål Sverre Hagen and everyone else did their job. Except screenwriter and director. Shame on you, Disappointed Q.

Leofwine_draca A CONSPIRACY OF FAITH is the last of the DEPARTMENT Q trilogy; these are Danish crime thrillers which are just as dark and gritty as THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO. This one's all about religious themes, such as faith and fanatics, and once again there are grisly murders taking place for our leads to investigate. I found it a noticeable step down in quality from the previous entry in the series, lacking the pace and suspense that made the first two films more than watchable.This time around, the characters seem to be going through the motions without adding anything much in the way that's new. The gloomy atmosphere seems stronger than ever, sapping the film of life and sentiment, and there's a lot of wasted time in between the admittedly good set-pieces; the hospital sequence is a highlight here. At least the main cast members continue to give solid performances, with Fares Fares shining in particular.

klh-ms This was such a disappointment! I had such high hopes after reading the book, which was so beautifully and perfectly written, it was like watching a movie. The suspense during the book lasted its entire duration, with slow, steady, and increasingly disturbing character development. The history and motivation of the killer, and almost all events leading to and following what could have been an breathtaking climax, were changed. In short, someone took this script and made it like every other Hollywood movie about good versus evil, and faith versus the absence of faith. I am hoping the remaining adaptations of the department Q series stay true to the books, as they deserve better than this.
