Wildland Reviews
Kampp's performance tracks the slow immersion into a life of crime with more patience, even sweetness, than we're used to seeing.
| Aug 24, 2021
An absorbing and highly watchable psychodrama.
| Aug 19, 2021
A chilling portrait of twisted family loyalty, told from the perspective of a young woman caught up in grief, trauma and desperation.
| Aug 16, 2021
A tense, suspenseful piece of storytelling and a showcase for a treacherously mercurial performance from Knudsen as the fearsome matriarch.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Aug 15, 2021
This sinister Danish Scandi-noir character study, the debut film from Borgen assistant director Jeanette Nordahl, views organised crime from an unusual perspective...
| Aug 13, 2021
Wildland is an original, a compelling gangster film unusually driven by women and told in stark, measured strokes. A unique calling card for director Jeanette Nordahl.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Aug 13, 2021
Simmers stylishly for nearly 90 minutes without ever fully boiling over.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 13, 2021
Surprisingly moving, Wildland places director Nordahl as one to watch.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Aug 13, 2021
Nordahl brings a woozy sensuality and strong sense of how this world might look through the eyes of a young woman, vulnerable to the predatory males around her, instead of a young man.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 11, 2021
Rather like the actors, David Gallego's handsomely muted lensing seeks sinister notes in placid veneers.
| Feb 21, 2020
A bit heavy and monotonous in spots, Wildland nonetheless packs a subtly powerful punch...
| Feb 21, 2020
It exerts a nasty grip.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Feb 21, 2020
While there's an undoubted familiarity to the bones of this crime family drama, there's enough added nuance to fascinate, something which is further enhanced by a clear directorial voice drawing strong work from all departments.
