What a waste of opportunity
I made the mistake of reading the book again before watching the movie So had high expectations. It was The Snowman that got me hooked on Jo Nesbo and was excited when I saw the trailer. I walked out of it at the end feeling very disappointed.

Characters were stripped down to being almost irrelevant. They should have stuck more closely to the book for Katrine Bratt, such an important part. Ave Stop did not come across as the charismatic media guru. Instead, he appeared to be somewhat impotent. ldar Vetlesen may as well have been cut right out of it. The script very loosely followed the book. The twists in the plot were poorly handled. The opening Scene faded to frame the plot and I won’t say anymore about that. Val Kilmer as Gert Rafto?? At least the harsh, bleak atmosphere was captured and Fassbender did a pretty good job.

This movie Should be shown to film students on how not to do it.

Worth Watching? Nor-way!
Another film that I decided to watch as preparation for “How Did This Get Made” podcast, which is due to feature the 2017 flop this week.

Harry Hole (Michael Fassbender) is a detective with the Norwegian police, who is struggling with an alcohol and insomnia problem that I can’t remember if the film ever actually bothers to explain the reasons for. He’s working on a case of a serial killer who likes kidnap and murder women and who likes to build a snowman, as a calling card. His partner on the case is Katrina Bratt (Rebecca Ferguson) who seems pretty disinterested in the specifics of this case, and a lot more interested in investigating high profile businessman Arve Stop (JK Simmons).

Plotwise, this movie is an absolute shambles. It’s not the only reason for the films failure, but it’s such a major one that no performance or cinematography styling could drag it back from. So many times I’m sat watching this wondering why that specific choice was made, and assuming that it’s going to mean something later on, only for it not to appear in the plot again. I’m guessing that at least some of these holes might have been filled by the 15% of the film that was unshot, according to the usually talented director Tomas Alfredson. It’s unusually though that it’s not so much about what’s missing, as to what was included. The whole plot about the businessman and his bid to win the “Winter World Cup” could have gone without damaging the film. His (I presume) prostitution ring (because it’s never explained???) that might have been a plot point, but doesn’t go anywhere. There’s no reason why Katrina’s character keeps her interest in the previous murders a secret, I mean, it’s a conflict of interest to investigate your own father’s murder, but it didn’t seem like any of the rest of the force here were bothered about protocol. Did we need to actually see her father too, particularly given Kilmer’s heath issues at the time? Why does Chloe Sevigny’s character have a twin sister, whose only job is to say something that her sister could just have easily told the police herself? It’s a parade of baffling decisions that if you told me where made up on the set to make a desired run time, I’d believe you.

I’ve probably drifted too far into spoilers already not to post the review with the spoiler setting on anyway, so I might as well finish it off. The ending is ridiculous. They discover the link between the victims pretty early on, but if they’d just asked the obvious question about which doctor they saw, it would be over straight away. How the killer finds out where Brat is, and gets the drop on her, and knows that she’s keeping all the records on her magic tablet thing are never explained and the final resolution is totally based on luck.

It doesn’t help that away from the plot, the film is also poor. Performances aren’t good. Despite the great cast, every line feels like it’s been redubbed (not just poor Kilmer’s) and each time like the least engaged reading was the one they’ve used. Everyone’s reactions to each other are odd and inconsistent. The editing is terrible too, and I think out of order, at one point I’m sure that Hole says that they’re just working a missing persons cases, even though they’ve already found a body.

Messy to the point of incoherence and yet somehow dull as watching snow melt. Abominable.
