Reviews

Michael Rechtshaffen

Los Angeles Times

Another unsavory journey into contemporary Denmark's seamier underbelly.

Ken Jaworowski

New York Times

Mikkel Norgaard, the director, propels the story by smartly sticking to the formula he used in the previous film: hints of menace, gorgeously shadowed shots and long flashbacks.

AV Club

Although each of the first three films tells a full, discrete story, they work best cumulatively, as the ongoing adventures of one cranky, conscientious cop.
