    The underbelly of Denmark

    Bleeder follows the slow unravelling of the lives of a group of friends. With racism, sexism, social inadequacy, depression and film buffery bubbling through the characters reflected in the films they get together to watch.

    This relaxed paced film hits as hard as the fists of its main protagonists.

    Blood pulses through Bleeder with each spilling of blood changing both the friends and their world.

    An intelligent movie well worth viewing

    Ok, but i was disapointed

    This film tries to offend the viewer, but the way it sets about this is so blatant it's not funny. It's not disturbing or shocking, the story is weak, the ending is rubbish, but the direction and performances are great. I've seen much better Danish films than this.
