One of the more intriguing trailers in recent memory
Noomi in any trailer is intriguing.
The movie? Got the award for originality at Cannes 2021 where it was screened about a week back.
That award makes it a mustwatch for mainstream haters like me.
Looks fantastic.
I think I recognise that guy behind the beard (not Mads, the other one) from those movies about the grumpy detective with the mulsim sidekick. I can't remember the name of them off the top of my head, but there were three or four and they were excellent.
Edit: Department Q!!!
I have absolutely no idea why international streaming rights were given to amazon. Prime is not available in as many countries as Netflix.
If Riders of Justice were on Netflix, I bet it'd be the most watched movie in this year there as it contains enough fun for dumb&dumbers while dropping plenty of breadcrumbs for everyone seeking thoughtprovoking stuff.
Do watch it and after you do, don't miss Jensen's older movies where he directed Mads and Nikolaj.
There was a time where some people were shilling for Mads in Geralt's role. Back then I said no, his forte are unusual characters as he can make them believable on screen. Geralt is not weird nor crazy enough for Mads. Riders of Justice just proves it.
And yes, Nikolaj Lie Kaas basically destroyed the role of Carl Morck so much I can't imagine anyone else doing it.
Sadly, due to filming rights given to different producers, in new Department Q movies the role went to Ulrich Thomsen.
He is also a fantastic actor, but I'm not sure how will that look like.
Definetly will watch it to check, but currently it's Denmark/Iceland/Russia/Ukraine only:
