Four teachers decide to consume alcohol daily, in a controlled way, to put a theory to the test.
To begin with, Another Round is not a film that celebrates alcoholism or the culture of excess. In some ways I consider this film to be one of the best since a long long time, because of the way it keeps the storyline attractive and exciting from start to finish.
At its core, Another Round is an internal battle, ranging from existential doubts to nirvana, through issues such as depression, marital problems and the worst about human behavior.
It's provocative, daring, corrosive and delightfully fun. It's a coming-of-age in reverse, a Benjamin Button, if you can say that.
Mads Mikkelsen is superb, an actor who has shown his talent over the years, however, I do not feel that he has surpassed the role that for me is his best: The Hunt, also by Thomas Vinterberg.
