I first saw Mads Mikkelsen in Flame and Citron, where he played Citron. I wasn't real impressed with the film, and I wasn't impressed when I saw him again in Pusher. He comes into his own here, as a man just out of prison trying to impress his gangster father. At the same time, he finds out he fathered a child, and now must learn how to be a daddy.
I thought Tonny (Mikkelsen) was beat to death in Pusher. Apparently not, but he did sustain some brain damage.
Frank (Kim Bodnia) and Vic (Laura Drasbæk) from Pusher would have made this film more interesting, but Mikkelson did turn in a good, if slow performance.
