      Audience Member The raw emotions in this film make it seem real and thought provoking. Although the ending felt a little distant from reality with the press surrounding the car. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member A dutch classic in my opinion. Theo is brilliant as Johan. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Audience Member Been wanting to see this for a few years now. Pretty good with a great ending Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Goeie nederlandse film. Rauw realistisch. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member Goeie rol van Theo, maar moet je 'm nou haten of medelijden hebben? Niet echt meeslepend zo. Bij vlagen spannend. Beter dan de Amerikaanse "Nothing To Lose". ;) Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member mehr ein experiment in sympathielenkung als ein wirklicher thriller, aber mit einem wunderschönen, tiefschwarzen finale.
