Two maverick Icelandic policemen pair up – in more ways than one – to catch a ruthless crime lord in this fast and furiously funny action spoof.

Cop movie cliches have been sent up before, but this Icelandic action comedy takes the homoerotic subtext of so many buddy movies and unapologetically comes out all guns blazing. Embraces the genre’s more ludicrous tropes then gleefully squeezes them tighter. - BFI London

"Raucously entertaining Icelandic spoof" - Screen

"Refreshingly diverse and hilariously old-school" - Backseat Mafia
"Knowing, sneaky, and deliciously deadpan" - Flick Filosopher
"Fast-Paced Nordic Cop Action Spoof" - Screen Anarch y

Eminently enjoyable romp the characters’ sexuality is part of the joke, but never the punchline – It’s too busy poking fun at the sheer absurdity of cop movie cliches. - BFI Flare
