In all honesty, I am one of "those people" who do NOT try to figure out what is happening and "who done it" in a who-done-it movie or book. I just sit there and let it wash over me, look at the scenery and get entertained. By SIR Ben Kingsley (Or, oh lordy lord, is it Lord Ben Kingsley? Let's go with Sir.) He was worth one star. There were no likable characters in the film, except for the waitress. She was always most pleasant. And the cat. But It was hard not to have someone to root for - especially this day in age. There was great scenery. But that was about it. I do like Nordic noir, so of course this intrigued me. But usually it's colder and much more brutal than this one was. I do think think it's worth a watch. Why not? Did I mention it has SIR Ben Kingsley in it? :)

Benno Fürmann goes to visit Ben Kingsley on his private island. He wants Kinglsley's advice on his novel, about a man who discovers his wife is pregnant by her unknown lover, and is about to leave him. So he kills her, and seems to get away with it... until he hears her laugh over the radio at a symphony concert. It's the first of three movies, all called Intrigo: Something or other, based on the stories of Håkan Nesser,, each intended to illustrate some concept. I found them to be mildly distressing in the same way that I find most Scandinavian movies: a sterile, bleak world of no moral values. There are intriguing plot twists, and the camerawork by Pawel Edelman is quite lovely, thanks to some beautiful landscapes in what used to be Yugoslavia when I was young and dinosaurs roamed the earth.

Think it's a great film. there is nothing that i don't like about it.

A little slow paced but enough twists to maintain your interest. I actually liked the Benno character. Cool calm and collected. The ending could have been a bit more powerful. But at least it had an ending unlike so many of the schlock stories that are put on film these days. Worth a look.

This was not one of Ben Kingsley's best role but his facial expressions still get me. A man shows up to get his advice on his book. He says he will only read a few lines of different parts of the book but ends up telling the whole story. It is hard to follow or stay with the story without your mind guessing how it goes.

What is Ben Kingsley doing in this piece which can hardly be called cinematography? A remote Greek island, a vast reservoir of water beneath a road curve and the death by punching pencils in eyes are the only leftovers from the boring movie but even they would evaporate by the next day. Loose characters, a sycophantic mercurial perpetually drunk protagonist and his stalker which should necessarily be lame all in their haze add to the general feeling of comprehensive absurdity

Just feeling 2 hours to read a novel and it's not too bad to watch it on screen. It's bit long but it comes with all necessities to take that long. Only problem is it's kinda mediocre storyline and not big big surprise.

A translator visits a solitary writer and start telling a story about his attempt to kill his wife when she told him was leaving with another man. The story seem entangled with the last manuscript of missing writer he was translating. In any case, the story unfolds quite slow; Benno Fürmann is not particularly charismatic and Ben Kingsley's is basically an cynical egomaniac so there is no much to root for. The ending is interesting but to be there you have to wait over 90 minutes of a catatonic tale. Perhaps there are people who love these slow burn thrillers but I did not find any suspense or interest in the characters at all. Considering this is the director of original Girl with the Dragoon Tattoo I hope the next installments will be better.

This film start with an anchor throw into the sea, and a man "Henry"(David) visiting another man "Henderson"(Rein) scene! As turnout, this film is about David take revenge on Rein for Mariam, because Rein fake his death, and causing Mariam commit suicide in the prison! Entire film quite slow, and full of boring conversation! The overuse of David walking scene, also make the film unwatchable! Barely laughable scene is, David and Rein talking about the cough! At the end, David poison Rein to kill him! David make Rein look like commit suicide by ignite the gas in the kitchen to burn the house down! That's it! Another disappointed film!
