Reviews
Ard Vijn of ScreenAnarchy wrote a review stating, “In good hands, this scenario could play out as a suspenseful drama thriller. In bad hands, you’d get implausible action and melodrama. Thankfully, Henrik Martin Dahlsbakken’s hands turn out to be very good. This is not a gung-ho rah-rah-rah action flick with love interests, but instead a mature and subtle look at a group of people under extreme stress.”, the review continues with “That doesn’t mean the film doesn’t deliver on the action though. What’s there is very good, but the exhilaration is in the survival, not in the heroism.”
