Because of this, it does not get boring for a minute, despite the fact that the very narration is very unhurried and sometimes prolonged. The film looks very dynamic.
Especially worth noting the successful game of the mainhero - Nicholas Koster-Waldau. He looks organic in the role of a successful manager, and in the form of a ruthless felon. In general, a large number of colorful characters appear on the screen, which do not spoil the overall picture at all.
