Kattiera Nana I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
ThiefHott Too much of everything
Pacionsbo Absolutely Fantastic
Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
punishmentpark 'Klown' may make you very uncomfortable. It did me, at times. Some parts were actually really good in pointing out 'social issues', but other parts were just downright choking the chicken of human conscience... or something like that. Not that that's a bad thing. But, more importantly, not all of it is very funny or even worked out well, in my opinion.The film looks mostly like an amateur feature film, with not much cinematographic elegance. Maybe it wouldn't be befitting of such a film, but I can't help looking at that side of things as well. The acting is fairly good, and Frank Hvam has just the right face to play this guy.All in all, it was relatively disappointing, but certainly not all bad or unfunny. 5 out of 10.
yeats_infection The trailer for this movie claimed it was hilarious and outrageous. The IMDb rating was 7.1, which is pretty decent for a comedy. Most (presumably Danish?) reviewers here are very positive about the film, so I checked it out.Klown is outrageous, alright - in that every zany episode involves non- consensual sex in some way.*** Spoilerville ***A man ejaculates onto a woman's face while she's sleeping, and she has to get her eye treated at the hospital. Another man engages in the statutory rape of a high school student. One character is coerced into participating (half-heartedly) in a threesome, which is actually a funny scene ... until the next day, when the woman involved in the act is upset and says that she felt taken advantage of. Finally, two grown men take ridiculing pictures of themselves pointing at and touching a pre- pubescent boy's penis. And all of this is played for laughs.I'm all for sex comedies, and while embarrassment and exploration of social taboos are great wells to plumb for humour, I felt downright icky watching this movie. What is it about the Danish zeitgeist that makes sex against someone's will so hilarious?
denglidendekop In short, Klovn the movie is a giant episode from the TV series. The time frame has been utilized fully, allowing the storyline to bring in more celebrities, many cool locations, great side stories and plenty pure uncensored Frank and Casper moments. It takes Klovn to new heights of obscene situations and awkwardness that will either crack you up laughing or leave your toes crooked for eternity.If you liked the TV series, this will obviously be something for you. You shouldn't expect major surprises in the storyline, just more and more of the stuff that makes Klovns humor so merciless and entertaining.
redcoat An absolute fun and cathartic movie for a December night, probably one of the most hilarious movies I have ever seen. A great extension to the TV sitcom, with all the familiar and delicious awkwardness of Frank. His honesty still doesn't serve him a good dish, while his little tricks lock him down in the puddle even more. Casper, ever the philanderer, takes things up even another notch in his shameless tour de F*** this time. Things are surprisingly wild and boundless in this picture, yet the notion of Frank's fatherly responsibility warms hearts and wets eyes. Short yet characteristic cameo appearances by many Danish entertainers, with Iben and Mia still being lovely. Parents, be aware of the nudities and explicit sex scenes; non-parents, enjoy the bluntness of yet another one of Frank and Casper's great adventure.
