Review

This clever, playful, and rather inventive genre excursion became a successful Danish export in 1994, kick-starting the careers of both its stars as well as filmmaker Ole Bornedal. Dabbling comfortably at the intersection between investigative crime and visceral horror, Nattevagten creates a distinctly 1990s cinematic universe that you would both want to inhabit and avoid at all costs. It's arch-Danish in essence, with its free-spirited drinking and thinking, but also knows its place in the film pantheon. Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Sofie Gråbøl, and Kim Bodnia are all delightful, but Bodnia's performance is a stand-out. He would go on to become Scandinavia's number-one film gangster, starring in Nicolas Winding Refn's Pusher (1996).
