Another Round (2020)

I've seen a lot of films about people getting drunk. Really funny movies like Superbad and really sad movies like Krisha revolve around the power of alcohol and both deal with celebration. Celebration is almost synonymous with alcohol in many different places. Another Round somehow manages to be both a gut wrenchingly funny film about teachers getting drunk at work and a devastatingly tragic look at a country that soaks its traditions in alcohol. I have so much more to say but I must simply insist you watch it. Part of the films fun is going in blind to it's experiments. It shook up my top ten 2020 list right after I made my video... I only wish I'd seen it sooner. There is great chemistry between the whole cast and any fan of Mads Mikkelsen will be extremely happy with his character. He does a fantastic job as the lead.
