Kidskycom It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.

Derry Herrera Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

Marva-nova Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

Jemima It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

Kirpianuscus it is strange to define it. it is a homage to pioneers of geographic adventure, a history lesson, an inspired trip at the true essence of adventure, not ignoring the portrait of noble heroism ,but giving a realistic story . sure, using the precise expectations about artistic virtues, it is far to be a great movie. but it is a decent one. and this fact remains a significant good point. or,maybe, a reasonable portrait of brave men and theirs fight against nature.

clytamnestra this movie had so much promise: -a famous story from dutch history -several well-known experienced dutch actors and a famous model trying her hand at acting. -nice scenery of amsterdam and nova zembla, in 3D no lessunfortunately all of that potential was wasted: -the story is messy and most of the scenes feel disjointed. if you know the story you'll notice all the parts that are missing or incorrect, if you don't know the story you'll just be confused. -the dialogue is horribly written. the acting is terrible, most off these actors have done way better in the past. and don't get me started on doutzen kroes -the 3D was of the universally-hated post-production kind (shot in 2D, then digitally converted to 3D, instead of filming with a 3d-camera). no doubt done to save money, but they needn't have bothered: good 2D looks way better than bad 3D (though i'm a big fan of GOOD 3D)and wtf did this movie start with the shot of them in a boat with a dead polar bear if that scene is nowhere in the movie? seems like this is a director who wants to include *every* scene that has been shot.and why did everybody on board apparently forget to pack their gloves and a warm hat?

susannetilburg **Warning: Lots of spoilers** This movie is one of the worst I have seen in a while. The 3D-effects are barely worth it (you can actually watch a lot of this movie without the glasses). The best effect is Doutzen on a swing, for just a few seconds. There's some missed chances there. I'd have liked to see a 3D-polar bear or something. What also p*ssed me off, is that the story has flaws. It's got gaps that are not explained. The clothing does not fit the setting (example: there's people sleeping in the snow with just normal clothes on). Besides, the editing is a bit off from time to time. Visually, there's some stuff that just doesn't work for me. All and all, this was a sheer waste of money and time. :)

TomvanWoerkom Firstable I thought this will be a typical dutch movie when I ordered a ticket to watch this movie with a load sex etc in it.When I start watching it in the cinema, it became clearly that it's an different style of movie. It was clearly about our own history and nothing more, but be aware that you know something about our history to know what's happening about it. Even there aren't big acting stars in it, but that's making the movie more realistic and of course it's an tribute to those heroes which have been trying it to reach the far east via the north of Nova Zembla (the first ship who was able to was invented in 1932 by an Russian ship)It's absolutely worth to watch.
