A cool movie about questionable police-work, 13 June 1999
8/10
Author: andré grisell (qcw832q@tninet.se) from Stockholm, Sweden

A cool criminal movie. Little action, but the suggestive music and the exquisite casting makes this a film worth seeing. Stefan Sauk makes a wonderful portrait of a cop with no emotions, just wanting to cleanse the town from mob. There are a few intense scenes, for instance when Stefan points a stolen revolver at the head of a suspect, and it accidentally goes off. At the end, the film changes from being a display of police violence towards a film about the police fabricating evidence to convict a (all too obvious criminal).
