BoardChiri Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay

Bergorks If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

Aiden Melton The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

Bene Cumb Although it is not educational, life and deeds of loafers is found catchy to follow by lots of viewers - apparently "decent" themselves. And the case is better if nasty crimes are not visible and their motive is not personal greed. Gamle mænd i nye biler depicts a story where suspicious measures are taken for the sake of help and remedy. The amount required is huge, time is ticking, and there are dozens of hindrances on the way... As the participants' IQ and moral values are not high as well (mildly speaking), then crazy and funny situations are easy to rise, leading to a logical, but somehow expected ending. Meanwhile, it is pleasant to track the run of events, comprehensions of characters, various action situations; by the way, two chases shown are not worse / less tense than in Hollywood movies. Well, some scenes are knowingly amplified, but they do not become ridiculous.The cast is evenly strong, particularly Kim Bodnia as Harald, Nikolaj Lie Kaas as Martin (his presence could have been more often), Torkel Petersson as Ludvig, Iben Hjejle as Mille. Actors like them could be savers of much weaker script.A good entertaining experience, if you like Scandinavian crime thrillers with humorous touch.

anne-dane After reading the previous sour comment I feel provoked to make a comment on "Old Men in New Cars", which is absolutely one of my favourite actions movies.The genre is a satiric high-speed kind of action movie, and dark comedy. The two innocent cooks known from "In China They Eat Dogs" is once again forced into criminal actions by their boss, and this time their job is to free their boss' dying stepfather's biological Swedish son, a serial murder of women, from a high security prison in Sweden, and bring him to Denmark to see the dying man.They succeed to bring the guy (who occasionally murder a few women on the way though Sweden) and of course that means lots of trouble and new opportunity for all of them. I like this movie... I like the car chases in small unimpressive cars, the inexplicit humour and play with referrals to other movies.

lasse-uk I actually thought that "I Kina spiser de hunde" was quite a decent film and it had me laughing out loud a few times but "Gamle mænd i nye biler" is complete and utter garbage.The acting is generally awful. Especially Nikolaj Lie Kaas was dreadful and had none of the edge he brought to his character in the first film which just made his performance flat. I've never thought that Kim Bodnia was a good actor and he pretty much proved that in this film because his acting is boring, lifeless and pretty annoying. Tomas Villum Jensen is alright but even his performance is barely a pass grade. Jens Okking is, as he is in a lot of movies, not used enough and thats a shame because he is quite a good actor. Iben Hjejle provides the only good performance in the film and thus she steals every scene she is in.The story was just plain weird and nothing to get too excited about and the humor was for the most part misplaced and extremely stupid. In fact the humor was so stupid at times that I thought it was an insult to the viewer's intelligence. The action in the film wasn't very exciting. I couldn't quite put my finger on it but it just wasn't entertaining. The car chase was the only interesting action scene.All in all a wasted effort and another pathetic Danish film to add to the list 3 out of 10

maria-55 Maybe it actually is terrible amusing to let a psycho molest and abuse people on film, but in that case I completely missed the point here. The main character, Harald, controls a gang of pathetic small time crocks/chefs. Their main focus is to provide Harald's dying mentor with a new organ, because the poor old creature probably drank it away. This leads them in the arms of the mentors estranged son, a Swedish serial killer with a longing for fatherly love that he compensates for by abusing and strangulate women - well, with the exception of Iben Hjejle, who used to date a football player, that the gang happened to kill.....doh...sounds kind of lame right? Well, it is.Avoid this piece of nonsense, and instead go and rent "Pusher" or "Bleeder" if you want to experience good and intense Danish crime movies.
