Flame & Citron - Official UK Trailer (OUT NOW ON DVD)

[FireEyedMaidOfWar]

Though the flick has some light in it too: For example when the red-hair bloke does kill himself with one of these nasty suicide pills (known from the Scarlet Pimpernel episode of Black Adder); as when he got his weapons ready I much feared that it would end in the typical American action movie shoot out; and the story is apart from the Danish bragging quite fancy, with all this betrayal, personal conflicts and intrigues, so told in a decent manner it could have been a good movie.

[FireEyedMaidOfWar]

But the Danes always tended to bragging: I recall one King Godfrey of Denmark who did send Charlemagne that he and his army will journey to Aix-la-Chapelle (the supreme seat of Carolingian power) in order to determine who is king of Germany (and of course he never came); and this is here the case when the spectacles bloke fights with a whole German regiment or when the Danish partisans cope escape easily the Gestapo ambush and slay whole dozens of Gestapo agents.

[FireEyedMaidOfWar]

Another dumb partisan cock-and-bull story from World War II with the usual allied lackeys outwitting and defying the German occupation troops and of course the Gestapo; and this time the Danes have invented it, though the Germans would not have occupied Denmark that easily if the Danes have had indeed such warlike blokes; only the Baltic States and Persia have been occupied unopposed in this war, so such partisan fairy tales will not spare the Danes the shame.

[JollyRodders]

@FireEyedMaidOfWar Fuck off you Froggy bastard.

[FireEyedMaidOfWar]

@JollyRodders: No chance, American bed-wetting type. I burst my pimples at you and call your landing in Normandy a silly thing, you tiny-brained wipers of other people's bottoms! Yes, depart a lot at this time, and cut the approaching any more or we fire arrows at the top of your head and make castanets out of your testicles already! And now, remain gone, illegitimate-faced bugger-folk! And, if you think you got a nasty taunting this time, you ain't heard nothing yet, fatso!

[EnGrapefrugt]

@FireEyedMaidOfWar lol, who made a crap on your lunch? 

[FireEyedMaidOfWar]

@EnGrapefrugt: You don't frighten me, American pig-dog! Go and boil your bottom, son of a silly person. I blow my nose at you and your silly president. I don't wanna talk to you no more, you empty headed animal food trough wiper! I fart in your general direction! Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries! Now go away or I shall taunt you a second time!

[EnGrapefrugt]

@FireEyedMaidOfWar looololol, im in love

[FireEyedMaidOfWar]

@EnGrapefrugt: Shut up! Shut up you American. You always talk, you Americans, you talk and you talk and say 'Let me tell you something' and 'I just wanna say this', so shut up

[horroravgn]

go Denmark

[miguelgaleana1]

One of my favorite movies..

[folladordeprostis]

Good movie,but I expected a little more action

[AMpufnstuf]

@folladordeprostis You're retarded. You saw more death, explosions, and romance in two hours than most of Denmark actually saw during the entire occupation.

What did you want, hitler personally executing millions of people with an endless chain gun? The fuck is wrong with you.

[folladordeprostis]

@AMpufnstuf There is not that much death, explosions,maybe because is not a hollywood movie and the director wanted to make it look different from mainstream hollywood movies,anyway still a good WWII movie

[knutsensen]

Worse than Max Manus

[folladordeprostis]

@knutsensen wtf?? both movies are good,maybe you prefer dumb movis such as harry potter

[Stoclet]

Amazing film ! I didn't even know that there had been a danish resistence !

Fantastic ! And that eye... It was great !

 I saw it on cable TV last night and , thank God, there were subtitles ! I hate dubbed films, they sound unreal and awkward !

[Abayarde718]

Amazing movie with some extremely tense moments and top notch acting - the script is superb and the cinematography masterful, everyone should see this film.

[eriathwen1303]

awesome movie!!!

[vickiehill1]

Oh this looks amazing! There are not enough amazing movies in this world that are truly worth a busy person's time.

[folladordeprostis]

Good movie,but I was expecting a little bit of more action

[cfodk]

These guys were assasins. They killed traitors. King and parliament told the people to cooperate with the German Wehrmacht - but they chose not to. It takes great courage to defy king and country and put your life on the line for what you believe is right. They were true heros of Denmark - but the job they did was a dirty one, and it shows in the film.

[2beautyz]

INTERESTIN

[tfr0g]

It is a good crafted movie, but fact is that the danish resistance was nearly zero.

If you want to see a more realistic resistance movie, watch "Max Manus".

[Tbonyandsteak]

@tfr0g More realistic? so you say becourse that resistence was from only a few people this movie is unrealistic.

You talk nonsens

[roflmarz]

@tfr0g lol youre stupid as shit

[tfr0g]

@roflmarz Normaly I would never respond to a post that starts with "lol", but what i meant with my post was that the film is more fictitious than for example "Max Manus". I liked Flammen og Citronen, though. So dont be angry.

[Tbonyandsteak]

@tfr0g To my knodledge they stayed close to the knodledge of the real Flame and Citron.

Sure there were not many assasins, but the story that they had a group hidden behind

as it is described here is to my knodledge true.

You dont see that many in the film either it just a group,

Why do you get that perception that it is fictious?

[2976847]

@tfr0g There was some danish resistence, but of course alot more in Norway xP

[punipunipunisher]

@2976847 Is there some kind of Viking competition between Norway and Denmark, who's more hardcore?

[2976847]

@punipunipunisher DENMARK!!!! lol lol xD

[92af]

Flame & Citron is the best danish movie ever

[FiendsInRedSatin1]

Just saw this one last week and was suitably impressed.  It tells the story of two resistance fighters in Denmark who wage war against collaborators and German occupiers. One thing I liked about this film is that the jobs of the main characters are never made to be glamorous. They are in a bloody and brutal business, and the film pulls no punches in that aspect.

[eliassailor]

Just saw this movie yesterday. Great movie. I find myself only wanting to watch foreign films these days. Can't stomach the Hollywood BS anymore.

[Astrosparx]

how do we pronounce "Thure Lindhardt"?

[MKlevig]

@Astrosparx "Tuer Linheart"

[Satanswehrmacht65]

Exellent ww2movie based on a couple of danish resistance fighters" Bent Faurschou-Hviid" &

"Jorgen Haagen Schmith" who bravelly stood up to nazi occupation and paid the ultimate price! sad tale of treachery & deceit at every level! RIP to all the victims of ww2 & it's heroes!

[adammackenzie]

great movie !! * * * * *

[antifascistmilitant]

I love movies about WWII resistance fighters, especially if it's based on a true story.

[thomstopper]

Amazing movie - nothing less.. It's a beautiful portrait of a life in war and the cruelty of nazisme.

[kondurperusix]

Danish sounds a little similar to german

[Theissax]

@kondurperusix Most European languages have similarity's but there is a big difference between German and Danish

[XkobyX]

THIS MOVIE IS FUCKING BAD ASS... toltal rebals... trench coats.. like a more realistic movie of "Hit Man" set in ww2 with hot Axcents..

[t0kk02670]

it shows we danish people are bad ass motherfuckers:D

[ROBdeLIS]

Without these guys, the Nazis would have won the war.

I'm talking about Americans, not the people in the film.

[XkobyX]

@ROBdeLIS Lol, im american. and yea thats sorta true, becouse not only did the united states send troops in, but alot of people dont realise they funded many countrys armys, and smaller orgisations evan worked out to get weapons past the germans and into resistence.. too cool

[WorldOfSnakes]

@XkobyX Yea USA played it smart while everyone was fighting so that's why they became #1 power after the war.

[anonymoussingerben]

Does this movie have nudity in it?

[chaddavidgill]

What?

[Pdids01]

@anonymoussingerben

does it have nudity? are you serious? that's the first thing that comes to mind when you see this trailer?

[XkobyX]

@Pdids01 Its a sexy trailor... wasnt there a nude scene? only from the back though i think..

[Raustlin]

No it does'nt.

[monsterhunter445]

¡La pelicula es fantastico!

[1994Andersen]

Epic movie! Denmarks greatest heros. i damn the day Hitler was born!

[vvoozer]

Amazing movie, about true legends.

I recommend this for everyone!!

[DunlopDaytona]

This is a fantastic movie.

Far better than the slush put out by Hollywood in the last 10 years.

Great story (true), great characters,  and an emotionally draining ending.

Certainly one of the best films this year, and an ALL-TIME great war movie.

[karolinexox]

I love this movie. I actually cried at the end.

Max Manus is one of my favorite movies of all times, and now - this movie is too! An excellent piece of art!

[Jorgen87]

if you like the max manus move, you should listen to the tape from max manus books from 46 and 48. Its in norwegian but still, you hear more than its shown in the movie.

[Metrodomefilm]

This is not 'another Holocaust movie' - it is about Danish resistence fighters in World War II.

[Konstiin]

@adepsa my god shut the fuck up man I love WWII movies.

yeah, shut the fuck up alright?!? shut the fuck up!!

[rheinmetall30mm]

@adepsa are there any copies of this dubbed in ENglish, NOT english subtitles?

[LAwrx03]

@rheinmetall30mm

Can you not read english? Dubbing a good foreign film is a disgrace.

[rheinmetall30mm]

@LAwrx03 that's not it, the issue is, somtimes, (AND as much as I watch this film) I like to put on a movie, turn my head and rest, as if relaxing with a movie on and just listening to it, YOU CANNOT DO THIS IF you do not know the lanquage! AND I WOULD NEVER fucking watch DAS BOOT in German, ever and I have the 5 hour version, screw that.It might be a disgrace to you, not to me.  I tried watching it, and have, it is better for me to listen to it in the lanquage I am fluent in.

[rheinmetall30mm]

@LAwrx03 and it is a good fucking movie, I even own it. I would like to see it in my spoken lanquage. That is all. A disgrace??? WHY??

[oxjr]

@rheinmetall30mm I think the reason people are getting on your case is they have no idea how you can possibly enjoy a dubbed movie. I am a bit baffled myself, voice-over actors are almost always 2nd rate (if not 3rd rate) and their awfulness ruins a movie. I don't mind reading subtitles and being able to hear the original actors tone, subtle expressions (like a soft sigh for example) that get lost in a dub. Maybe you do not mind the trade-off, but most people find dubs grating.

[TheDepotCat]

@rheinmetall30mm Oh stop moaning...!!!

[louisedue]

did you even see this movie? or are you just advetising for the website? there isn't one funny moment is this film.

[voldemort256]

U should mark such messages straightly SPAM

[badseed136]

If Lars von trier had directed this movie, i bet there would´ve been a scene with some nazis with down syndrome having sex.

[ROEDERBABY]

Haha, I love you Badseed136! Such an amazing comment comes with love! :P

[badseed136]

Indeed.

[911KissMyAss]

"badseed136" you having sex ? no wayyyyy

[badseed136]

Not me, people with down syndrome. I think you misread my comment.

[slaaaaft]

OrginalKork - max manus came after this film so it can't be a copy . idiot .

[ihateamerica1]

Denne må jeg se

i have to see this

[macca261]

i love your username :)

[OrginalKork]

MAX MANUS COPY.

[Jamesss101]

i tink flame and citron was released before

[Flexxo4100]

it might have bin, doing to itis made over 2 real freedom fighters under WW ll

[sambosnake21]

looks better than valkyrie

[wittenbergdoor]

you can say that again!

[adammackenzie]

@sambosnake21 -- ya , very good movie , not all action. but a decent war movie

[Ninty64boy]

@sambosnake21 it is

[Comrade503Alias]

@sambosnake21 Its better then valkryie.. less depressing too, + these actors have been in good english films.. angels and demons for 1 :) ^^ watched 14 times

[aikidoka20]

ok so the trailer has shown us all the action scenes, the rest is just gonna be boring politics and bla bla bla.

[knuddel123]

Danish people are awesome ;-) The only thing I don't like about Denmark is that the Danish government does not accept dual-citizenship - to bad.

[DishyEnglishmanLuvr]

I just finished watching the DVD. Excellent. I am recommending it to everyone.

[Gokkelogge1994]

Indcrebile only thought it had it was in the danish cinemas xD

[Mortenhendriksen]

nope, we send it to a lot of contries because theres a lot of people who thinks we supported the germans with thier war.

[Gokkelogge1994]

Who is "we"?

[Mortenhendriksen]

im from denmark

[icerevolution]

men, det tror jeg ikke. I Island vi lorer at danskerne i WW2 var meget stærk og vil ikke hjælpe tyskerne.

[NarcissaCissa]

Hvorfor skulle vi(danskere) også hjælpe et land der havde besat os ? Hvad logik har der nogen sinde været i at hjælpe tyskerne i WW2 ?

[Bonelocen]

Det er du vist for ung til at forstå kære ven.

[Flexxo4100]

same here,

there is nothing more i hate then Nazist pigs
