Review of En kort en lang

6/10
Unbelievable story line and strange casting
2 January 2003
I didn't really like "En kort en lang" - 6/10 (should have been 5/10 if not for the great music and a couple of very funny comments).

The romance between Jacob and Caroline is not really believable and the ending is unbelievable and not funny or touching. There are several interesting and funny scenes set in the gay milieu but they cannot make up for the main story line. In my opinion "En kort en lang" tries to be both funny and serious but doesn't fully succeed.

I wonder who casted Mads Mikkelsen to this movie? He's absolutely not funny and his dialog would be more appropiate if he was acting in a thriller or crime movie. Troels Lyby on the other hand is doing an outstanding job being both funny and serious (Note that I'm not particularly a fan of either Mads or Troels and Troels was nominated for a Bodil an won a Robert for his performance)
