About this movie

Roger is a charming scoundrel and Norway's most accomplished headhunter. He lives a life of luxury well beyond his means and subsidizes his expensive lifestyle by stealing highly prized art. When his beautiful wife, an art gallery owner, introduces him to a former mercenary in possession of an extremely valuable painting, he decides to risk it all in order to obtain it, and in doing so, he discovers something that makes him a hunted man himself.

I don't know why I didn't like this film. It felt as if something was missing, but I cannot pinpoint the reason for my dislike. Perhaps the movie was too formulaic, too neat. I suggest you watch Sweden's A Man Called Ove (2015) instead.

Headhunters will remain with you after the final scene cuz you'll find yourself thinking about the myriad plot twists and turns you didn't see coming, or possibly you did but not on the level they did in this Norwegian tour de force psychological thriller. Two thumbs way up.

Entertaining and a decent twist on what could have been a predictable by the numbers thriller. Sit back, enjoy, and don't examine it too deeply or the plot holes become apparent.
