Audience Member This film has all the hallmarks of a made-for-TV movie: poor lighting, low-budget soundtrack, episodic structure, decent but underwhelming performances. If it had been, it wouldn't have been made for prime time. It's pleasant and mildly pleasing -- somewhat like paisley wallpaper or floral-print socks. Watch it or don't. You won't remember the next day whether you did or didn't. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member This Danish resistance story is better than the lower-budget production suggests, having found a decent set of actors to play this out they hide some of the ordinary techniques.
