There are always some reasons to watch a certain movie in this world, and Mads Mickelson is one of them. In a Danish film that finally did not have Thomas Winterberg directed, Medes Mikkelsen's performance is still the biggest attraction. This man has the texture of an oil painting and is the dream of all directors.
Mads Mickelson
Knight of Justice tells the story of Marcus' wife who died in a train "accident" and had to be driven home from the troop camp. On the train, Otto, a failed probability researcher, happened to cede his seat to Marcus's wife and saved himself. Through various details, he concluded that the accident was not an accidental event, but a deliberate incident, and told Marcus about it.

Marcus then began to investigate the accident with Otto and his three "interesting" friends, the trio of the team was responsible for fighting wits, Marcus was responsible for fighting courage, the former was funny but could always step on the "idea", the latter's anger was easily ignited, the nonsense squad set off, and the accident investigation team gradually became a revenge team............
One of the special things about Knight of Justice is that it's an action comedy, but you'll find that the Nordic sense of humor is extremely difficult to detect, and you have to deeply understand it and fully consider the situation, context, environment......... I laughed, not because that humor was very advanced, but because Nordics shot everything cold and hard.
"Knight of Justice" does not want to tell us any truth, everything seems so logical, smart people may be losers, fierce people are best not to provoke, when there is injustice, justice should be done, probability is really a science with practical value............ The film constructs a normal world, and although each character has something to watch, the comedic and dramatic effects come more from the chemistry generated by this strange combination, and the plot is easier to enter people's hearts.
Like all Nordic films, Knight of Justice is natural, fluid, diverse, understated without ostentatious or deliberate. It's like a bunch of rough guys with very different personalities and "all kinds of people" crowded in a civilian Volkswagen, all the contradictions and conflicts and plot effects will naturally "explode", constituting a relatively advanced and three-dimensional presentation effect.

The narrative style of the film itself is plain, the image style makes people feel very comfortable, the characters are full of texture but very lifelike, and the action scenes are tough and clean in addition to the comedy adjustment. Although the film is closely related to the theme of revenge, it does not make people feel heavy, to say that it is not nonsense, the most special thing about "Knight of Justice" is that the movie is very special.
Knight of Justice is an action comedy film worth watching.
