Upstanding community leader Nils has just won an award for "Citizen of the Year" when he learns the news that his son has died of a heroin overdose.

I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. If you're looking for cocaine, I can tell you I don't have drugs. But what I do have are a very particular set of snow removal vehicles; Snow removal vehicles I have acquired over a very long career. Snow removal vehicles that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you'd let my son go, that would've been the end of it. I wouldn't look for you, I wouldn't pursue you. But since you didn't, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will plow you.
In Order of Disappearance is a clever take on the modern revenge genre. Loved black comedy and there are some pretty spectacular violence on-screen. Very Coen brothers & Tarantino-esque.

I love Stellan Skarsgård
Often playing an irascible jerk, there’s always something special that bubbles up under all that crust. My favourite role of his was the somewhat befuddled hitman Ulrik, just released from prison, and now being reintroduced into criminal society in the brilliant A Somewhat Gentle Man. I guess I love that one not just because Skarsgård plays against type, but rather that he plays a character much like the many others he’s played, but possibly seen from another light … a sympathetic light.
In Order of Disappearance grafts the kinder, gentler, Skarsgård into a Death Wish like revenge actioner. His character, Nils ( with the unfortunate surname…
Springcrime - The April & May Project
I think I like the cut of Hans Petter Moland's jib.
The blackly comic crime stylings of the splendid A Somewhat Gentle Man are replicated to a certain extent for In Order Of Disappearance. The difference here is that the comedy is transferred from another Stellan Skarsgård weight-of-the-world riddled character pretty much wholesale to the villains of the piece.
The comedy is also a lot darker and this is, really, more of a serious crime drama than anything. That's not to say it's not very funny in parts because it is, with the final death of the film being an outstanding piece of recalling not to mention the reaction of the wife of Skarsgård's…
Hans Petter Moland's film is a story about fathers and sons, parental responsibility and cold hearted, blood soaked revenge. Most people will see similarities with Headhunters or the quirky characters that populate the Coen's world although the icy Scandinavian humour, led by Stellan Skarsgaard, sets a tone all of its own.
Nils Dickman hails from Sweden but lives in Norway, recently crowned Citizen of The Year in his small town. Life as a respected family man is turned upside down when his son is murdered, believed to be the victim of a drug overdose. Nils refuses to accept the coroners report and heads off to track down the men he believes to be responsible; cue a pile of dead bodies…
Einer nach dem anderen oder im Original Kraftidioten ist ein norwegischer Actionfilm und gleichzeitig das Original zum US-Remake Hard Powder mit Liam Neeson.
Im Prinzip könnte ich fast genau dasselbe schreiben, wie zum Liam Neeson Film, denn Regisseur Hans Petter Moland - der sowohl Original als auch Remake gedreht hat - hat mit kleinen Abweichungen im Prinzip zweimal den gleichen Film kreiert. Viele Szenen, Dialoge, Gags und Kameraperspektiven sind in der Tat identisch. Somit hatte ich selbstverständlich fast genauso viel Spaß wie beim Remake, auch wenn mich die Gags natürlich nicht mehr überraschen konnten.
Einer nach dem anderen ist ein sehr unterhaltsamer Actionfilm mit viel schwarzem Humor versehen. Der Film nimmt sich einfach nicht ernst, was sehr erfrischend ist. Wenn…
Very entertaining Nordic Noir with a high body count and a rich vein of jet black humour. They really know how to do these things in snowy Scandinavia, don't they?
A gem of a Norwegian black comedy revenge flick.
Stellan Skarsgård works the mountain roads in Norway as a plow driver. His son is killed by a drug dealer and Stellan sets out to get revenge.
Brutal, dark, with increasingly intertwining situations. The movie builds on each disappearance (murder) until it reaches a satisfying climax.
Pål Sverre Hagen and Bruno Ganz as the leaders of their respective gangs are both exceptional.
I am a huge Stellan fan and I think this may have been one of his better roles.
I started watching my version with English dubbing on but it sounded off so I watched with English subs instead and was not disappointed.
It's fascinating to watch this after having seen Cold Pursuit two years earlier. Watching a situation where a director essentially crafts the same movie twice, with just tweaks to location and cast. And all the little adjustments that come with those changes.
I hadn't fully gotten the joke about his name until seeing this, and it really is the smaller changes that stand out. The ones that weren't necessitated by locality.
In whatever language, with whatever phallus-derived surname, In Order of Disappearance is still a really fun tale of vengeance and family, set against some of the coldest terrestrial backdrops imaginable.
I love a darkly humorous crime thriller, and this is a really good one. It's always ready to undercut the parts of revenge that are made to look cool in other movies - a hitman is embarrassed by his ill-fitting nickname and stays in a budget hotel room with a building site outside, our grieving protagonist finds that the process of beating information out of drug dealers is extremely tiring, a clichéd one-liner is immediately contradicted.
Stellan Skarsgård plays a well-respected small-town snow-blower (an important profession in a town this snowy) who receives the news that his son has died of an overdose - the police (and the mother) accept it as a tragic accident, but the father gets the…
Stellan Skarsgaard punches a lot of people on his way to nail a bad guy who is a cross between Richard E Grant and Richey from Bottom (only norwegian).
