Pusher 3 (2005)

Good concept, poorly executed.

As Good As It Gets

Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

Zlatko Buric returns as Milo for the last film in the trilogy. He is looking quite a bit older. He is working on a big drug deal while planning his daughter's (Marinela Dekic) 25th birthday party. With her stressed out and nagging, I can see things as a little tense for Milo.The party doesn't go smoothly, the drug deal is going wrong, and Milo is trying to deal with this and stay clean at the same time.The most interesting part of the movie was when Slavko Labovic shows up to help Milo clean up some of his mess. It was the highlight of the movie.The Pusher was the best of the three, but this was not bad.

Pusher was brilliant. Pusher II lost a little in plot but acting and directing kept it up. Pusher 3 though, loses it all.The story focuses in on Milo, who in the first two seemed powerful in the Copenhagen "underworld" - but here he is turned into a pathetic chef. The motive is, I guess, to establish how younger "talent" is trying to break in on his territory - but it leaves you wondering what happened in between the movies so that went from being able to cough up any dope requested if the price was right - to now not being able to pay for MnM's.Also I get the feeling Director Niclas Winding Refn doesn't trust his own touch anymore, as he uses a lot more score in this one to enhance the scenes. Some of the violence (or more accurately: the gore) feels like it's just there to be shockingly real - but unlike the first two Pushers, here it doesn't come across like that. More like "let's have a gore-fest".I heard a story from Denmark that Winding Refn called a newspaper before Pusher 3 opened and asked them to give it good reviews. Instead the reporter wrote about him calling for reviews. That just about sums this movie up - a desperate attempt by a desperate director.

Can someone please explain how the open endings are the 'significance' of the films?...I think someone doesn't know what they're talking about!...And pleeease, how can you possibly suggest a pusher 4? the idea of another open ended, unfinished film is completely insane. The fact is, Nicolas clearly can't come up with any conclusions about his characters; leaving the story to the audience?...pull the other one! And to think they're doing a UK release of the whole trilogy in June, we sooo don't need that! I supposed those of you needing subtitles in English will be satisfied, but if you ask me, you were better off without the translation.

Pusher is one of the best movies iv ever seen, actually its in the list of my top 10 favorite movies.Unfortunately both Pusher 2 and Pusher 3 are horrible movies, but as bad as Pusher 2 is Pusher 3 is even worse. One reason that this movie is so bad is because of the very poor acting. But then again for me Pusher is Frank (Kim Bodnia), when I heard Kim Bodnia wasn't going to be in the other 2 movies I knew it wouldn't be a good movie. Another thing is that there is not really any story, its more like lets take some kokain kill some people chop them up and go to bed.Horrible!!!!! Absolutely Horrible!!!!! 1/10
