the new morality

Martin Vinge is an achieved recruiter of high-contour business organization talent, a man who thrives on corporate cutting and thrust. Less successful equally the estranged father of a seriously ill son, and carrying regret from his fourth dimension every bit an investigative announcer and an incident involving a politician, he faces his biggest test nonetheless when embroiled in the dynastic politics of a big shipping company.

Author/director Rumie Hammerich invests this tale with Shakespearean gravitas. with Martin ostensibly in the employ of Lear-like elderberry Sieger, merely menaced past his Iago-esque son Daniel. The chrome and steel surfaces of the offices shine and the Ikea domestic interiors are all hard edges, giving the film a David Fincher look while likewise heightening the cold, amoral shenanigans of the players. Martin'south weak bespeak is his son, and he plays a precarious balancing game in selling out to get his son the private medical care he needs, while simultaneously going subsequently the truth of the story that his deep moral cadre compels him to uncover.

Lars Mikkelsen equally Martin Vinge is brooding and conflicted. His one connection is journalist Nina (Charlotte Munck), unhappily married, compromised and flawed, as if to say Martin could only be attracted to a female version of himself. Except she is a decent parent. Mikkelsen'southward performance is perfect, ever keeping things just below the surface then that nosotros continue with Martin on his journeying without ever truly getting to know why he embraces the contradictions of his undertaking and then fully. There are some satisfying twists along the manner, and moments of droll humour. Martin inbound a room where simply the women remain, and their synchronized pointing to the elevator, is a visual delight. In fact, the visual sheen of the whole film is rapturous, near reminiscent of Fincher's The Game.

This is a high quality thriller that exhibits judicious economy and steady pacing. It is the film Michael Clayton wanted to be. Mature, thoughtful filmmaking with a woody Scandinavian scent.
