Sebastian L @RT53077800 12/08/2024 Being a modern Swedish movie 438 Days suffers from the usual artistic inhibitions, but the subject matter and strong performances from Skarsgård and Varela compensate a great deal.

It also shows a bit of how Oil Companies are involved in perpetration of violation of Human Rights in Africa. Nevertheless at the end the directors tried to give their own interpretation of the meaning of the movie and it becomes a bit flat. Certainly freedom of expression is highly important but then the influence of European companies on the support of dictatorships seems secondary.

That's an impression from someone who is not a member of the Anglo-European community. See more Read all reviews
