Martyn Conterio Little White Lies Peter Stormare's best performance since Fargo. Rated: 3/5 Dec 13, 2012 Full Review Daniel Green CineVue What False Trail sets out to do, it does remarkably well -- with particular praise reserved for two dominant performances from Rolf Lassgård and the ever-watchable Peter Stormare. Rated: 3/5 Feb 6, 2019 Full Review MaryAnn Johanson Flick Filosopher [I]f you're weary of [Peter] Stormare's one-dimensional Hollywood villains... here's a chance to see him in his natural environment and much more truly disturbing than he usually is permitted to be. Feb 18, 2013 Full Review Scotsman Wintry in setting and tone but reasonably absorbing. Rated: 3/5 Dec 17, 2012 Full Review Alistair Harkness Scotsman Plot twists abound, but they don't detract from the strong character work done by the leads, with Coen brothers regular Stormare on especially unhinged form. Rated: 3/5 Dec 17, 2012 Full Review Philip French Observer (UK) Both gripping and disturbing. Dec 16, 2012 Full Review Read all reviews

Daniel L This movie takes place as the WORST movie I've seen in my ENTIRE LIFE. It's got nothing but an incredibly dull plot point to stand on it's predecessor, and it makes nothing out of it. It's as if Sundvall and Lassgård had nothing better to do and decided to team up again, despite not having a good story to do so with. The ONLY person who gives a chilling performance is Stormare. Nope, safe yourself the time and watch something else. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 09/03/20 Full Review Audience Member Too predictable, dissatisfying thriller with Peter Stormare doing his usual hooded eye bad guy routine. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Andrew G A thriller which manages to create suspense on a few occasions, but is full of clichés and badly lacking in subtelty. Peter Stormare is unhinged to the point of (unintended) abdurdity. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 10/07/17 Full Review Audience Member One of the best crime thriller movies i've ever seen ! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Good old-fashioned detective story in an atmospheric settings, it's a fairly intense investigation and never dull, despite the fact the culprit is revealed very early. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member Næsten lige så god som 1'eren, men også kun næsten. Under alle omstændigheder uendelig meget bedre end de fleste amerikanske krimier skåret over samme læst. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Read all reviews
