Mads Mikkelsen and Nikolaj Lie Kaas give terrific performances and the film’s wild mix of dark comedy, absurdity, and emotional moments keeps it endlessly engaging. Its visuals, sound design, and uniquely Scandinavian humor create a memorable cinematic experience.

With magnetic leads and Julia Jackman establishing herself as one of the most exciting new voices in British cinema, the film pulses with inventiveness and heart. It’s a fairy tale like no other, boldly queer and unapologetically feminist, a cinematic feast of humor, emotion, and rebellion.
