The Nordic countries are the ones that most control the sale of alcohol, but also the ones that have the most problems with it. This searching (and finding) of de-inhibition is a very sarcastic look. The film also works better on its uninhibited side than on the dark side. The courage of the proposal seems subjected to a certain moralistic reading. For the dance scene alone, Mads Mikkelsen deserves three Oscars. "What a life, what a night. What a beautiful, beautiful ride".

Damn nearly died of laughter when it skipped to them fishing for cod haha.

Phenomenal movie and one of the best endings I've ever seen. Goosebumps!

i love it when mads goes all out, makes a hell of a show combined with thomas bo larson...the hunt...ring any bells? well acted relatable and thought provoking

i was expecting a whole 4ss different movie however it surprised me so much. That last dance scene alone should make you watch it (it was the closer i have been to a club in the last 20 months too so...). Pretty good movie with a great cast. 100 % recommended.

That dance at the end by Mads is one of the best things I've witnessed in my life. The whole movie's worth it.

An interesting reflection on alcohol consumption. Mads Mikkelsen's performance is incredible, as always.

This film is a mirror of life and the human experience. It felt deeply connected and moved by it. What a ride!

Mads Mikkelsen dancing and spinning around is one of the most beautiful cinematic moments in 2020
He's so good , great cast all around and a top notch movie

Oscar should be given for one of the best films of the yr

Sophisticated, intellectual, refreshingly different movie. More like this please.

This variegated life of ours.

Mads Mikkelsen never ceases to amaze me. He stands out alongside Thomas Bo Larsen (lovely last name), Magnus Millang and Lars Ranthe (Amazing first name). There is chemistry between these four men who are having a midlife crisis. They never fail to keep you glued to your screen. Seeing them all cope differently with their alcohol abuse is interesting to see.

You have a feeling it'll all go down a bad road one way or another for the four teachers. Everyone is effected differently, but it's lovely to see them having each other's back at every turn. You'll laugh with them, feel bad for them and have the biggest smile on your face at the end. Those final 5 minutes are a sight to behold. Mads Mikkelsen moving his hips is something you don't want to miss out on.

Another Round is a must watch for everyone here at Letterboxd, you'll be amazed by Mads Mikkelsen, the story, the other actors and the ending. Another Round is one of 2020's best. I haven't seen many of them but it'll be up there for sure!

Easily one of the best of 2020.

So many familiar moments in that movie! :sunglasses:

The science behind it: https://www.nrk.no/norge/--to-glass-vin-gjor-deg-helt-normal-1.501219

I'm 23 years old and have yet to have my actual first drink, I think I'll keep it that way

Everything about this film should feel insufferable to me and yet Thomas Vinterberg managed to make me connect to and root for 4 men in their 40s/50s going through a midlife crisis and acting like reckless teenagers. I think that says enough about the good work that is done here.

It’s a fun, sensible, serious, introspective and ultimately fundamental exploration of the boredom and depression of a very non-spectacular and uneventful regular middle-class adult life and the never-ending longing for youth.

It's a really fun movie to watch, although the ending is expected, you enjoy the whole thing.

On the surface the movie sounds rather superficial: some friends try to maintain varying degrees of intoxication in their daily lives. But to what end? That seems to be the central question that each of them needs to answer for themselves. Is it for science? Is it to improve their lives? Is it to push away pain? In the end the alcohol really seemed to be more of a metaphor than anything. What did they want out of life? The last scene answers that question for the main character.
