Clichéd and incoherent.

As a long-standing veteran of the video retail industry, I’m firm in my position that Netflix can jump eyeball first onto a rusty fence post. The selection sucks, the image quality tends to be garbage and the interface is about as intuitive as an Android App designed by a dyslexic 4 year old. But the bastards keep throwing free month trials at me with the kind of manic desperation that isn’t at all surprising given reports of their financial standing, and when I run out of things I rented from my convenient and friendly local video store, I usually troll their selection with the detached lack of enthusiasm I use to pick breakfast cereals.

But lo and behold for once I actually found something I’ve been meaning to watch, Headhunters, a Norwegian thriller starring that smoldery guy from Game of Thrones and what looks lie Steve Buscemi’s nervous brother. I guess miracles do happen.

Jaime Lannister strikes again.

@anngoli: Funny you should mention that scene, because if you look closely at the carton, you can see that it isn't even blown to pieces, it is just ripped from the bottom. Really bad movie mistake.

I thought this movie was pretty great. I went in with very few expectations, and was very pleasantly surprised.
I'm a bit disappointed to see that it only has a 7.5 star rating on IMDb, and think it deserves higher.

Loved the book and loved the movie! Favourite scene is when they shoot at eachother and the milk carton is blown to pieces.

Didn't like the ending much but I guess it was needed to cover up the glaring plot holes. Very entertaining.

I was really enjoying this as an intense thiller filled with twists up to the crappy ending where the writer just decides to paper over all the cracks and give the viewer a pat ending that isn't really justified. Still at least we had a lot of cool moments with Coster-Waldau while it lasted.

Wow, what a ride. A wonderfully dark, intense, brutal, intelligent thriller with an inspired ending, surprisingly effective comedic moments, and Jaime Lannister kicking ass. One of the nicest surprises I've had in a long time, despite a plot that's about as full of holes as that milk carton.
