Lars (Aksel Hennie) and Lisa (Noomi Rapace) have lost much of the love that brought them together in the first place. Now, they're struggling to maintain their marriage, and their ambitions. Lars' career as a director has stalled out in soap operas, and Lisa hasn't landed a part in years. Lars feels ignored, suspects he's being cheated on, and struggles financially. Lisa thinks Lars is a spoiled, self-centered coward. Nothing about their lives turned out the way they'd thought it would – their marriage least of all. So a weekend trip to the family cabin in the woods seems to offer them both an opportunity to get rid of the other. Permanently. But not even this goes according to plan. The trip involves more surprises and unforeseen turns of events than they'd imagined. (Netflix)

The Trip, c’est une thérapie de couple sous le traitement du boucher norvégien Tommy Wirkola. C’est drôle et bien senti, ça se déroule dans un décor magnifique et à certains moments, c’est totalement « over the top ». Un spectacle très rafraîchissant.

Tommy Wirkola aborde les crises conjugales différemment de Woody Allen. Tout aussi amusant et créatif, mais très différent. Cela m'a rappelé pourquoi j'aime tant les films réussis de créateurs talentueux, qui font leur travail avec joie et ont de bonnes intentions envers nous, les spectateurs. The Trip est la version norvégienne des films de genre américains, où tout devient étonnamment compliqué et saignant. Fortement ironique et sérieux, grotesquement brutal et plein. L'histoire n'est pas totalement originale, mais les personnages et leurs pulls ne sont pas banals. Malgré sa simplicité initiale, le film est finalement bien monté et intense, exactement comme le souhaite un spectateur satisfait. L'équipe des acteurs est géniale !

When I saw the director - Tommy Wirkola - I had no doubt that this film would be fantastic. A beautiful trip about two people who go to a cabin to kill each other, and a series of unexpected absurd situations eventually create a real fight for survival. I really enjoyed it. It reminded me of a beautiful collection of absurdly entertaining scenes like in The Dead Don't Die, which is the absolute peak of similar films for me. I just missed a more impactful soundtrack. Then I would give it the fifth star and I wouldn't even blink. Noomi Rapace and Aksel Hennie are excellent, however.

Check it out, it's really funny, he said. And although it's not a comedy the way I normally think of them, he was right. The comic aspect here, among other things, works brilliantly. The characters are likable and lukewarm at the same time, making for a rather unique spectacle that you definitely don't want to walk away from.

We already know that Tommy Wirkola is talented and even though this time he chose a more intimate film than his previous works, it works well, even if I have minor complaints. It's a bit of a variation on the Russian film Why Don't You Just Die!, but more in tone, style and brutality than in concept. A married couple go to a cabin with the intention of killing each other, and this is complicated by an unexpected visit from three idiots. The pacing is slower and the humour works about halfway. It's a kind of adult humour where serious topics are discussed with a light and black-humored tone so it depends on taste, I would have liked something a little different and would definitely have cut the film by about 30 minutes. When it came to the violence, however, Wirkola is nicely brutal, spares no great ideas and makes great use of all the tools around him (though there are a couple of sequences that are just a tease, like the one with the shotgun and the one with the lawnmower). Overall, decent and entertaining, but I was slightly hoping to be a bit more satisfied. Story 3/5, Action 4/5, Humor 3/5, Violence 4/5, Fun 4/5 Music 3/5, Visuals 3/5, Atmosphere 4/5, Suspense 3/5, Emotion 3/5, Actors 3/5. 7/10.
