Roger is a charming scoundrel and Norway's most accomplished headhunter. He lives a life of luxury well beyond his means and subsidizes his expensive lifestyle by stealing highly prized art. When his beautiful wife, an art gallery owner, introduces him to a former mercenary in possession of an extremely valuable painting, he decides to risk it all in order to obtain it, and in doing so, he discovers something that makes him a hunted man himself.

This was surprisingly a good movie. Do not let the subtitles stop you from watching it. It had a little everything a movie should have. The twists the movie takes were somewhat unexpected and made the movie that much more exciting to watch.

Entertaining and a decent twist on what could have been a predictable by the numbers thriller. Sit back, enjoy, and don't examine it too deeply or the plot holes become apparent.

I don't know why I didn't like this film. It felt as if something was missing, but I cannot pinpoint the reason for my dislike. Perhaps the movie was too formulaic, too neat. I suggest you watch Sweden's A Man Called Ove (2015) instead.
