Another Round (2020)
5/10
Good acting by Mikkelsen, awful premise!
15 September 2022
I decided to finally watch this movie after being constantly reminded of it by my friends for a good while.

I must say I was disappointed. I finished it though, which is a bonus.

I don't understand how on earth a group of adults may not be sure/aware of how alcohol may potentially affect their health, social behaviour etc and therefore decide to experiment with it (dressing it up in pseudoscience) in order to combat their midlife crisis related, personal issues.

This is beyond me. This also reminds me of many other movies I've seen in the past whereby another group of adults decided to go ahead with some kind of plan (govern by rules) in order to combat other kind of issue/issues.

This is very, very cliché. Very cliché.

The only good thing is Mikkelsen's acting; however, even he struggles to stay convincing because of the ludicrous movie's premise.

I don't even want to go into the Scandinavian drinking habits that are supposedly tackled in the movie because that's just another utterly, unnecessary cliché.

Poor movie.
