- lennyofficialJuly 23, 2026An interesting and lively film that breaks free from the molds of monotony. Indeed, the movie begins by highlighting precisely that: the monotony of daily life that drains people's spirit, rendering life itself stale and unsatisfying. Four high school teachers—Martin (history), Peter (music), Nikolaj (psychology), and Tommy (physical education)—realize exactly this: the monotony that stifles life and the drive that keeps it moving forward. The spark is ignited during a dinner among the four friends when they discuss a theory by Norwegian psychiatrist Skårderud, who claims that humans live with a blood alcohol level that is too low and should maintain a level of around 0.05% (0.5‰) to reap social and even professional benefits. The initiative comes from the most unlikely person—Martin—who has become increasingly listless and drained of color by his monotonous existence. He begins by taking small sips of alcohol before his lessons. This makes him more interactive, playful, and lively with his students, who immediately appreciate this new approach. The same happens for the other three friends; they decide to raise the bar, observing—paradoxically—that the results improve even further. However, they eventually go too far, inevitably losing what they had built over time—and, tragically, even lives are lost. Visually, the film employs both cool tones—predominantly for scenes conveying sadness or seriousness—and brighter colors for moments of jubilation and joy. The performances are, once again, masterful and spot-on—especially (as usual, I might add) that of Mads Mikkelsen. The opening and closing party scenes are defining, emblematic elements of the film's subject matter, adding a further layer of coherence and completeness to its structure. Ultimately, then, the film is not an incitement to alcohol consumption; rather, it is about not letting oneself be swept along by the flow of life—whether by monotony or by vices—but instead taking control and making it one's own, without harming or even destroying oneself...
- R. SchmidtFebruary 7, 2026A devastatingly beautiful elegy for lost potential, masterfully blending tragic self-destruction with the desperate, fleeting joy of feeling alive. It leaves you soberly heartbroken.
