Ian R A bleak and ugly movie. Behind the nasty violence the plot is trite. It left me feeling hopeless. I could have spared myself watching this. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 09/03/25 Full Review Benjamin H Containing all the fierceness and grit from the first film while also providing masterful character work, Pusher II is a realistic, compelling and superbly paced gangster film that also benefitted from Mads Mikkelsen's terrific performance and Nicolas Winding Refn's elegant direction. There were a few scenes that could have been handled slightly better, but that's a nitpick in an otherwise fantastic movie. That ending had me going like "YES". Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 05/11/25 Full Review kevin i This movie is absolutely great and so is the rest of the trilogy. I wrote this in a Thomas Shelby accent, so you know, i am right. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/10/25 Full Review Millie C Loved this movie so much can’t get it out of my head, Mads Mikkelson’s portrayal of Tonny is phenomenal. Such a good movie for a generally generic plot definitely not like those other half-arsed ‘drug dealer’ movies you see, seriously enjoyed this, totally recommend! Et must see, elskede det! Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/01/25 Full Review R 9 'Pusher II' improves upon its predecessor, if only by a little. I found this 2004 flick to be comparatively more pleasant to watch, not in terms of a lack of violence or anything (there's plenty!) but more so just as a film in general - it feels more well made and a bit more progressive story-wise. It's still nothing perfect or anything that enthralled me at all, but I definitely class it highly (albeit minorly) than 'Pusher'. I would've preferred a sequel that followed up with Kim Bodnia's Frank, at least character-wise anyway as actor-wise Mads Mikkelsen is the one I'd prefer to watch instead. Mikkelsen puts in a good performance, 8 years on from his acting debut in the original. Away from Mads, Leif Sylvester Petersen is probably the standout - though all the support cast are pretty much level with each other to be honest. I'm interested to see where the third and final flick from this series goes, given Mads Mikkelsen's absence and, from what I gather from the tiniest of look-ups out of pure nosiness, Kim Bodnia's continued disappearance. Viaplay recommended 'Pusher 3' at the end of this film and their promo image features Zlatko Burić, so I know he makes it a hat-trick of appearances at least. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 09/25/23 Full Review Ravenswood R Does not create the tension and insanity of the first film. This is looser and less plot and story driven. More of a character study of a guy who is drugged up, misguided, confused, stupid, and violent. The parts are good but don't add up to the impact of the whole of the first film. Harsher and even more repulsive than the first one, if that counts for anything. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 07/03/23 Full Review Read all reviews
