Englisch Sidse Babett Knudsen proves that she is an actress par excellence with her performance in the title role. Otherwise, however, I am somewhat disappointed by the film. While it is commendable that a film has been made about such a serious case involving the malpractices of a certain pharmaceutical company, the filmmakers failed to convey any emotion to the viewer. It's a bit too descriptive for my taste and I admit that I was bored for about half of it. I would have expected some interesting digressions into the private lives of the main characters of the story, which is based on real events, so that I could better identify with them. ()
