I got excited about this one because the trailer was very well done but also told very little about the movie. Now that I've watched all two hours of it I can also say that the movie doesn't tell very much about the movie.
Set at some point in the future in Germany, this movie has another one of those overlying concepts that decades from now the world has pretty much devolved into a lawless playground that is overly sexualized and it doesn't seem to contain very much in the way of law enforcement.
The entire film kind of sets up as being interesting because Leo (played by Alexander Gustaffson i mean Skarsgård) can not speak because of an injury he suffered as a child. He works with and is romantically involved with a woman at the bar he works at and one day just disappears without a trace.
The story (and I don't know if this is intentional or not) doesn't really give us any real ideas as to where she might have gone and Leo has to piece this together despite not being able to speak and the fact that he isn't terribly tough.
This all happens (very slowly) in the first 20 minutes or so and then we are treated to about an hour and 20 minutes of seemingly unrelated content that eventually leads us to a conclusion. By the time you FINALLY get there not only are you not surprised but you end up having a "get on with it already" attitude about the entire plot.
One good aspect of this movie is Paul Rudd's performance in it. He comes across quite convincingly as a no-nonsense tough guy that can handle himself in almost any situation. I think he probably bulked up for the role a bit because he isn't a big dude in real life, but he is quite intimidating at many points in time during the film. I don't feel as though Hollywood has effectively used Alexander Skarsgård since True Blood, but his involvement in True Blood may actually be the reason why they haven't used him.
Slow moving and disjointed, I can't really say I enjoyed this film so much as I endured it hoping that something magical was going to happen towards the end. It started to finally wrap up in the last 20 minutes or so. Unfortunately, the ending is so telegraphed that by the time the big reveal happens you aren't surprised and also don't really care. The acting is solid on the part of nearly everyone involved but overall the film just fails to live up to the hype that the trailer instilled in me.
