The Door

10/10/2023

An interesting concept no doubt, <em>'The Door'</em> just doesn't execute it all that well. It starts off decently and I was interested in seeing where it would go. However, I feel like it lost its way very quickly and suddenly became rather underwhelming. The performances of Mads Mikkelsen (who's German was actually dubbed by Ingo Hülsmann, annoyingly) and Jessica Schwarz, while more than fine, don't set the film alight either - nor do any other elements of this 2009 release. A disappointment all in all. Forgettable!
