Critics Consensus

Take one part deftly directed tragicomedy, add a dash of Mads Mikkelsen in vintage form, and you've got Another Round -- an intoxicating look at midlife crises.

Mads Mikkelsen is on vintage form in this boozy tale of family and masculinity.

Rated: 4/5

The last shot of this film [is] as indelible as any you'll find...

The Spectator

The film is well directed. It is well acted. Mikkelsen is always as compelling as his cheekbones. But it's so muddled in its thinking -- alcohol is good; no, it's bad... but good -- that it ends up with nothing of value to say.

Flick Feast

Another Round is as fun and life-affirming as it is splendidly realised and crafted. Much like catching up with a great friend over pints in the pub, you can’t help but want more of it.

Rated: 5/5

ANOTHER ROUND could easily have become a paean for navel-gazing self-discovery... Instead, it’s soulful and tender, never judging its leads even as they wreck themselves in pursuit of something nonexistent.

Rated: 5/5

[Another Round] instead handles the subject matter with grace and a bit of humor throughout. Also, Mads Mikkelsen dancing, nothing else needs to be said...

Mads rocks but the B and C plots are pretty light and the entire movie ramps up too quickly and never truly engages with consequences

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

Why four reasonably intelligent men would think being drunk all the time would improve their lives is beyond me. In fact, it leads to some predictably dire consequences, but they gave a good time getting there. I enjoyed watching them get there.

I guess I was hoping to be surprised by what it might have to say.

Another Round was a stellar film that's amazingly written and directed and ultimately one of the best films so far of the decade. First of all, I'll say that this film has one of the best premises I've ever seen for a movie. And though that premise easily could've just been used on some bad comedy movie, Thomas Vinterberg approaches this idea with such an impressive maturity and makes this a really deep and emotional film. Vinterberg makes such a great cast in this film, all of the characters are so deeply flawed, human, and complex. But the highlight is definitely how maturely Vinterberg used this goofy concept to make an interesting character study that really moved me. I really loved watching all the characters in this film and I was completely enthralled the whole film. Another Round was an extremely moving and entertaining film, and was the most I've enjoyed a film in quite a bit.
