The Wave (aka Bølgen)
If you are in the mood for a popcorn disaster movie, The Wave will do the trick. There are a couple unique elements to this movie. The first is that it is a Norwegian disaster movie rather than a Hollywood one, and the second is that the disaster at hand isn’t one that has been the subject of a movie before (I think). For the rest, it is -very- standard disaster movie fare – but well made and an easy watch.
Jagten (aka The Hunt)
Little kids don’t lie. Or do they? Lucas (Mads Mikkelsen) is trying to rebuild purpose to his life; he lives in a small community somewhere in Denmark, has had a bad divorce, his teenage son lives with his mother, has lost his job but has found a new one as teacher in the local kindergarten.
A Second Chance
Andreas appears to be living a dream life. He lives in the kind of Scandinavian home on the waterfront that has probably been showcased in various design magazines; his wife Anna is almost as good looking as he is himself; and they have just a little baby boy Alexander to make their idyllic little life complete.
