I den här sanslöst oförutsägbara thrillern spelar Nicole Kidman den pedantiska Nancy Vandergroot, en lärarinna och hemmafru vars till synes perfekta liv med sin respekterade make och son i tulpanfyllda Holland, Michigan, förvandlas till en mörk historia. Nancy och hennes trevliga kollega börjar ana ugglor i mossen, bara för att upptäcka att ingenting i deras liv är som det verkar.

Holland Ratings & Reviews
- Kain30 mars 2025it’s nicole kidman. don’t waste your time.
- Shaydeknight12 oktober 2025Holland is a film that looks terrific and features three excellent performances from Nicole Kidman, Gael García Bernal, and Matthew Macfadyen, yet somehow never quite finds its footing. The tone and visual style are remarkable. Mimi Cave’s direction captures the pristine artificiality of a small Midwestern town where tradition and conformity mask deeper unease. It’s a world polished to perfection, and that tension between a picturesque façade and the stifling expectations beneath it gives the film much of its intrigue. The story, however, doesn’t hold together as well as its aesthetic. Kidman’s character, Nancy Vandergroot, seems almost absurdly determined to pursue a mystery that feels unnecessary from the outset. It seems like the film wants her to chase meaning rather than find it. Her restlessness is clear, and her performance is compelling, but the writing turns her quest into something faintly ridiculous before the supposed big reveal arrives. When it does, the twist lands with a “meh” instead of a “pow,” leaving you admiring the craftsmanship more than the story. Holland wants to be many things at once: a mystery thriller, a satire, a domestic drama, but never fully commits to any of them. The result is a beautifully made, well-acted, but oddly hollow film. It's fascinating to watch, intermittently engaging, yet ultimately less profound than it thinks it is.
- Monkey See! Monkey Review!!7 juli 2025As a general rule, if I am not drawn in by the end of the first 15 minutes I fast forward to the last 15 minutes of the movie just to see how it ended. The last 15 minutes made me want to continue where I left off but because I saw so many poor reviews I decided not to. Honestly I still don’t know what this movie is actually about and probably never will. It’s a very nice looking film but I just couldn’t quite connect with its characters nor plot. Could be a slow burn that you have to just stick with for a while to understand, but at this point, popular opinion rules. In short, it’s like a very attractive person that you wanted to date so badly but after hanging out for a few you soon realize they have no personality at all.
- Watch Manz30 mars 2025I actually enjoyed this movie - once I had watched it. It was a strange movie when it first started, and I wasn't entirely sure what I was watching. I'm not really a fan of Nicole Kidman anyway, so I wasn't expecting to be overly entertained and all the Dutch stuff just made it seem weird. However, slowly, the story started to come together and what seemed like weird or interesting events began to take on meaning. So, all-in-all, it is worth a watch and you may get more out of it than you expect. I certainly did.
- Kevin Ward1 juli 2025Mimi Cave’s Fresh was probably my favorite surprise when it premiered at Sundance a few years ago. So when Nicole Kidman, Matthew Macfadyen, Gael Garcia Bernal and (checks notes) Rachel Sennott?…signed on for her sophomore feature, it immediately shot to the top of my most anticipated list at SXSW this year. Coming out of the theater, there are so many things to love about the film—Kidman and Macfadyen’s performances, the idyllic Holland (Michigan) setting, cinematography utilizing the miniature version of the town. It’s an entertaining noir thriller to a point, as Nancy (Kidman) and Dave (Bernal) attempt to uncover Fred’s (Macfadyen) potential infidelities. But when the truths all unravel in the final act, so too does most of the goodwill afforded by the pedigree involved. The characters make illogical decision after illogical decision which takes away what could have been a solid mystery thriller. And that disappointment inevitably raises more questions like “Why is Rachel Sennott in this movie for 1 minute?” (Why the first minute?) What was the point of the fired racist Janitor? I’m still on board with Mimi Cave as a director. I will just have to file away disappointment of the fumbled potential here.
- jackmeat22 maj 2025quick rating - 5.1/10. Holland, Michigan - home of tulips, windmills, suspicious dancing, and apparently, Nicole Kidman’s marital paranoia. Holland brings us Nancy (Kidman), a soft-spoken teacher living what appears to be a picture-perfect life in a town that looks like a Hallmark postcard threw up on itself. But as any good Midwesterner knows, behind every smiling face is a brewing storm, or at least a pretty juicy suspicion. Nancy begins to suspect her husband Fred (played with subtle menace by Matthew MacFadyen) of cheating. The twist? She's the one actually having the affair. Nothing like an adulterer on a moral mission to spice things up! You haven’t lived until you’ve seen a woman gaslight herself into thinking she’s the victim while sneaking off to... grade papers with her coworker, presumably. But wait, there's more! Because this wouldn’t be a psychological thriller without a series of bizarre dream sequences. Nancy’s dreams are like if Twin Peaks moved into a Dutch souvenir shop. Colorful, unsettling, and filled with people who may or may not be speaking in riddles. You half expect a clog to tap out Morse code. Unfortunately, all that dreamy potential is wasted. Despite being 110 minutes long, the story somehow races through every juicy narrative beat like it's trying to catch the last float at Tulip Time. The mystery around Fred? Barely explored. The thrilling turn the movie promises in the trailer? Let’s just say it took a wrong turn at Windmill Lane and never came back. Visually, the film nails the Holland, MI vibe. Quaint, friendly, and unnervingly Stepford-esque. And as someone who’s had real-life encounters with Holland and neighboring Zeeland's surreal charm (and its inexplicably magnetic and quite lovely Tulip Time festival-goers), I can confirm the town really is that weirdly wholesome. Sadly, that authenticity doesn't save the film from its own narrative flatness. In the end, Holland is a middle-of-the-road mystery that mistakes mild tension for depth and scenic shots for storytelling. If you’ve ever wanted to watch Nicole Kidman bake a pie while existentially unraveling in slow motion, this is your jam. Otherwise, you might be better off visiting the real Holland. At least there, the windmills have more emotional range.
- Scott Smith29 mars 2025My wife wanted to watch this, so I endured it with her. It was really slow moving and weird. No real point to the story and awkward. Not recommended.
- Oshimplex17 maj 2025Another great Nicole Kidman flick. Mysterious and very suspenseful. Go ahead and give it a watch!
- Oʂɯαʅԃσ Rσყҽƚƚ29 mars 2025Nicole was fantastic. I throughly enjoyed the movie. Went in with low expectation, came out smiling. I really enjoyed not knowing where the story was taking me. Very light and comedic tones for most of the film and then it takes a sharp turn with horror elements. Needless to say, I had a fun time with this.
