From the visually impaired point of view. The movie starts out with about five or six minutes of silence. Not a great beginning. The characters did have distinct voices and were not too difficult to follow. But that's when there was dialogue. I found myself getting a number of running descriptions from my sighted assistant because of long visual scenes. Very challenging. The Scandinavian accents were amusing, but no real problem. Bang, bang, shoot 'em up scenes are almost always filled with chaos and confusion because I never know who shot who. Getting this information second hand seems to always dilute the potency of the scene. I had a good laugh, however, as my assistant gave me detailed descriptions of one gory scene after another.
I can't give this movie more than a 5, but if you like cops and robbers movies, you might enjoy this one.
