I saw this with my old man about a year ago, Got it from the edmonton public library. Both of us really enjoyed it , this film is a total masterpiece. It made me think about things for months after i saw it, very philosophical and contemplative......absolutely fucking brilliant, if you haven't seen it, WATCH IT!!!
This trailer gives you the whole movie from start to finish, every element; and yet tells you virtually nothing about what happens in the film. The film itself has so much to say about life, humanity, purpose, thought and feeling and yet tells you nothing. It is almost devoid of sense, empty. Considering the film, the trailer is superb. Considering the emptiness, the film is excellent.
I've just watched this film on iplayer...what the hell? whats with the bus? and the two guys playingg Badminton? Can SOMEONE explain this movie to me??!
As I consider myself to be "someone", I will try to explain :o) As I see it, this is a surrealistic movie about a man questioning the routines and superficiality he meets in his everyday-life. As he is trying to break out of his "prison" and find something of real value, he is fired from his work and caught by official guards that catch any person that do not follow the "rules" of society.

hello,
this movie was absolutely horrible. I thought it was extremely boring and I would have rather watched a wall for 2 hours. I feel like I wasted my time watching it and I wich I hadn't watched it,
I recommend you to watch terminator or the van damme series ;),in fact this movie is too great and has deep understandings ,kinda telling that modern life is nothing but a cage

HOW THE HELL CAN PEOPLE LIKE THIS MOVIE ? :S... IM FROM NORWAY LIKE THE MOVIE, BUT ILL SERIOUSLY SAY THATS THE MOST BORED MOVIE I HAVE EVER SEEN...HOW THE HELL?! :p
@2010471 besize you seemed not to like this outstanding film, at least you norwegian people have great cinema, unlike colombia, 90% of our cinema is narcotraffic, violence and crime characteristical and stereotyphical situations of our country....
Caught this film by chance a few weeks ago and thought it was amazing. In my opinion, its a film version of radiohead's song "Fitter Happier", listen to it after or before watching an you'll see what I mean. Watch it if you get the chance
Ginge is a norwegian composer age 38 . he made the main theme and other pieces within the movie. in additionl to the 3 or 4 pieces of music from Grieg himself.

What a massively messed up film. I liked it, though the ending... I didn't *totally* get it, and it left me a bit empty. :|
Still a good watch, though! If you don't mind subtitles, at least... :)
