Not convinced if I like this one or not. Mads Mikkelsen's performance is definitely a part I enjoyed, he is excellent throughout. The rest of the onscreen talent, e.g. Kirsti Torhaug and Alexander Skarsgård, are good too - bar one. That one member of the onscreen talent that didn't enthrall me is Samuel Fröler - lousy. No hate on the actor necessarily, but he just didn't fit the role in my opinion... needed someone more menacing. So, Fröler is one negative... but not the only one. The way the plot unfolds irritated me at a few moments, most notably at the point involving Henrik Noél Olesen's Preben; to avoid spoiling, all I can say is: as if! It's not perfectly written, at all... even dumb in parts. I can always ignore it once or twice, but I found myself disliking a few moments every now and then. Rating-wise, it's 6/10 or 7/10 - the former feels harsh, the latter generous. I think Mikkelsen's showing just about tilts it into the higher score. I likely won't revisit, though I guess you could do far worse. <em>'Exit'</em> is an OK watch.
