I've read all the other reviews and I think some other reviewers are speaking about a different film.This movie was very comfortable to digest. All of the characters were realistically portrayed . Artistic harmony between acting and script.This movie is definitely more real and more believable than many other top rated action movies. Maybe "Traitor" (2008) has a close realistic plot. The direction was of high caliber and extremely professional which keeps the viewer engaged . All of the action went off very realistically. The twists will leave an impression, so be observant while tuning in.

I've read all the other reviews and I think some other reviewers are speaking about a different film.This movie was very comfortable to watch. Sure, plot has been done before. But so what, that doesn't mean it cant be done again by different characters. I think all of the characters were portrayed quit convincingly. I was very comfortable with all of the acting and script.This movie looked and felt more real and more believable to me than many many other top rated action movies.The direction was spot on. All of the action all went off very realistically. There are some twists to the plot that I certainly didn't expect. I'm quite sure this is an enjoyable movie for all action film lovers if you don't expect all action movies to be done with the same style of direction. I do hope to see more of these actors and the characters they portrayed in this movie.

This Swedish movie/TV production ain't that bad as I thought it would be. 6/10 for a Swedish action movie based on a Jan Guillou novel is a high rating in my book.The film's better features one can thank in particular Michael Pers Brant (who I'm not a huge fan of normally) and Seba Mubarak (her, I would like to see in future major roles). Gustaf Hammarsten as Swedish technical consultant is both believable and nicely played. The role is however small. Seba felt like the filmmakers could not portray fairly. She gave more than enough, but they could not capture it fully. Big, big disappointment is August, Ekborg, Hjulström and in most scenes Anderson. They come in, read their lines and done. Zero intensity. I expected much more from these Swedish giants. The foreign crew how ever did fits into well. They do a good job and feels credible. I would not nominate any actor in this production for any award though.The close combat scenes stinks and there are other scenes when it feels like someone poured syrup in the machinery. There are times when slow tempo adds ... but usually it will just fall flat, boring and TTBA (Try To Be Artsy).The screenplay is more pretentious than good. I have no high thoughts of Jan Guillou. In my opinion he is probably one of the most speculative writer, journalist and media personality in Sweden. That and a nasty self-righteous attitude shines through in all his productions.Many negative words for a movie I rate 6/10 but thats the thing. It is never the less entertaining and if one starts to watch one want to see the whole movie.

If you like your movies with boring action scenes, undeveloped and uninteresting characters, a story that could have been applied to action-hero from Arnold to Stallone to Craig to Damon and a musical score with no personality what so ever then Hamilton is the film for you.The movie opens grandly with an EXTREME closeup on Persbrandts nose. Persbrandt plays Hamilton just like he plays his famous Gunvald-character in Beck, only that this time he is more restrained. His "acting" is holding the same emotion through the entire film and hardly ever showing any emotions at all.The only interesting part of the movie goes nowhere. It involves Hamilton having a traumatic experience with his girlfriend and was more interesting than the stock-plot of the film.The villain was just your stock action villain with no personality at all. Actually, nobody in this film had a personality.The photography was terrible, the camera was shaking like the tail of a rattlesnake in every shot and I never could tell what was going on.Just plain bad.
