A masterful combination of black humour, drama and action. Nils, a normal guy, turns the tables after the murder of his son and becomes a killer, played by Stellan Skarsgård. The stylized characters lighten the plot, yet the script doesn't lose its power and tension. Philip Øgaard, the cinematographer of the film, does an excellent job, and combined with the Norwegian snowy landscape, it's an awesome spectacle. This star-studded Norwegian blockbuster is a must-see for everyone!

A film that has a great setting and, in the end, quite interesting characters, who clash in a slightly bizarre gang war that culminates in the final scene. There are interesting visual elements used here (such as black windows for farewell), which give the film a touch of originality. Acting-wise, the film does not disappoint.

Tarantino in the Cold!! I haven't really been to a bad movie at the cinema this year, In Order of Disappearance is no exception and I have to say I haven't seen such happy faces after a movie in a long time, obviously the movie made everyone happy:) It's a perfect parody of all mafia movies, and also an amazingly dark revenge flick. I have to say that I haven't seen so much sarcasm in a movie before, if I watched it at home I might even roll on the floor laughing at times, even though it is a completely different humor than I am used to. The pleasant snowy Norwegian landscape is also nice, the pace is decent, there's no shortage of blood, and most importantly, the original graphic depiction of death is to be commended, guaranteed to amuse if you're not a wimp. The Scandinavians score again and again !:) 80%

You won’t believe me how much I was looking forward to this film. I even noticed how contradictory the reviews on this website are and I was thinking that I won’t believe it until I watch it myself. So, as soon as Stellan Skarsgard arrived on the scene, a fairly straightforward gangster movie started. His son is killed so he takes revenge. He goes to the first gangster. He beats the information out of him and moves to another. This is how it goes during the whole film. There are sometimes better moments, of course, but overall I was rather falling asleep and this should not be happening in my opinion. Unfortunately, the second The Hundred-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out of the Window and Disappeared didn’t happen. Seen based on the Challenge Tour 2015.

This is so much better than the remake for the American audience! Skarsgård is determined and natural, the casting and stylisation of the villains are wonderful, the dialogue about European multiculturalism is spot on, with Scandinavian black-humor and the absurdity of escalating the situation into a slaughter over a single incident like something out of a Sam Peckinpah movie. I fully and delightfully enjoyed everything here that didn’t work for me in the remake to the point that I completely missed the creative intent in the effort to give the it a strange distinctiveness.
