Review For A Hijacking

Through it all, A Hijacking maintains its cinematic grandeur, balancing the open-sky thrill of being at sea with the claustrophobia that comes with being forced below deck for days at a time.
Stephanie Zacharek-Village Voice

Tobias Lindholm's starkly commanding thriller cuts out all the action heroics usually associated with hostage movies, replacing them with an underlying, nauseating sense of dread; it's a nail-biter about being under the gun.
Joshua Rothkopf-Time Out New York

From this classy hostage movie, we learn how to negotiate with Somali pirates, and - perhaps more usefully - how to do male public displays of affection, Scandi-style.
Cath Clarke-Time Out

Tobias Lindholm's superb [film] actually grows more chillingly subdued as its nightmare scenario unfolds.
Guy Lodge-Variety

More than a meticulously detailed, convincing re-staging of a crisis, the film is also the portrait of two men doing their best amid dire circumstances.
Jon Frosch-France24

This riveting sea drama look so realistic you might swear that the Danes hired real Somali pirates.
Harvey S. Karten-Compuserve

Tobias Lindholm's hostage-negotiation drama wields its verité style for maximum tension.
Nick Schager-Slant Magazine

In his almost documentary style of filmmaking, Lindholm has achieved an impressive sense of realism and you can certainly see why the film has attracted a lot of attention on the festival circuit.
Sam Bathe-Fan The Fire

Good, but a bit too straightforward to live up to its dramatic potential.
Roger Moore-McClatchy-Tribune News Service

It's at its best when it mixes heartfelt moments into the unimaginable hell of being held captive in such a confined space on board an already battered old vessel, the MV Rozen.
Graham Young-Birmingham Mail

Not enough filmmakers make use of pirate culture like Tobias Lindholm does in A Highjacking. By doing so, he reveals human emotions that burn both ends of the candle and create gripping drama from a situation not enough people take seriously.
Matt Donato-We Got This Covered

There's no moralizing here, just unsparing realism.
Henry Fitzherbert-Daily Express

The results are gripping, with the action growing increasingly tense as gun-toting violence looms.
Trevor Johnston-Radio Times

Adept filmmaking and a clever two-perspective approach make this film urgent and involving, even when the narrative structure falters.
Rich Cline-Shadows on the Wall

[An] excellent Danish thriller ...
Philip French-Observer [UK]

As a psychological drama, this is surely one of the best of the year.
Derek Malcolm-This is London

Without resorting to graphic violence or melodrama A Hijacking builds into an extremely tense tale with all the nail-biting immediacy of an unfolding news story.
Allan Hunter-Daily Express

Calmly made but ultimately lacerating ...
Antonia Quirke-Financial Times

Danish director Tobias Lindholm spins an exacting drama out of a crisis on this deft, verite-style account of Somali piracy in the Indian ocean.
Xan Brooks-Guardian [UK]

Nail-bitingly intense, thanks to some powerful performances and Tobias Lindholm's strong direction and fantastic script.
Jennifer Tate-ViewLondon

Eschewing hard boiled action for an authentically gritty approach, director Tobias Lindholm creates a fuggy atmosphere of claustrophobic dread aboard the ship juxtaposed with the airy hi-tech steel and glass HQ of the shipping line.
Tim Evans-Sky Movies

Harrowing. A Hijacking may last only a shade under 100 minutes, but the memory, like the captives' trauma, will last much longer.
Michael Leader-Little White Lies
