Tonny vapautuu vankilasta 13 kuukauden tuomion jälkeen ja kohtaa uuden todellisuuden: hänellä on lapsi ja rutkasti velkaa isälleen, joka on Amagerin pelätyin rikollinen. Kööpenhaminan alamaailman luuserin on nyt yritettävä saada elämänsä järjestykseen, mutta kaikkein eniten Tonny kaipaa isänsä kunnioitusta. Mutta mitä enemmän hän yrittää, sitä enemmän hän joutuu hankaluuksiin – eikä hän pysty maksamaan velkaansa... (Nordisk Film Fin.)

In the first Pusher movie, there is an intriguing side character played by Mads Mikkelsen, which the second installment develops in depth. He has a crucial relationship with his father and difficult relationships with women. And the omnipresent cocaine, crime and gangsters. Few other characters from the first part appear here, and only for a moment to connect the stories. The first part was a gangster movie, the second part is a social drama set in the world of gangsters, shocking and psychologically poignant in the best Scandinavian tradition.

Refn's anti-hero is willing to do anything to survive, but he certainly is not a drug dealer. More like a petty criminal, a car thief with a little bit of luck. He's unnecessarily impulsive, unbalanced, weak, and helpless, and without life perspectives and emotional support. Refn's work is mainly associated with the title Drive, which is an atmospheric overseas thriller with a mysterious and invincible hero. This film represents its nonchalant European counterpart, but surprisingly, in my eyes, it is a bit better. It is, so to speak, true to life. This unadorned and unromantic image of the gallery is much more convincing. Additionally, Refn has the virtuoso actor Mads Mikkelsen at his disposal, who is a chameleon in his roles. I have had the opportunity to see him in costume roles, as an elegant gentleman or as a devilish Bond villain. Now I watched him as a tattooed thug with a sense for choosing the worst possible solutions. Overall impression: 70%.

Where Frank was always doing something in the first part (meaning actively getting in trouble), in the second part, Tony goes through life without much a do, because he’s such a waste that he wouldn’t even try to do anything. Once again, Refn’s look into the gutters of society feels extraordinarily authentic, to the point that it was almost unpleasant to watch that existence. The ending is impressive.

The second Pusher stands out for its greater passivity – Mikkelsen's Tonny was already in the flow of events and "patterns" in the first film. This becomes fatal to him in a story imbued with a certain perverted junkie "Oedipism". Mads is fascinating, locked within himself and heading for the final tragic gesture of purity amidst the filth. Tragic because it's a gesture that leads nowhere – there's no escape. In this sense, more radical and closed than the first film, which seemed to be moving away from the hopelessness a little after all.

It’s been a really long time since I saw the first part of The Pusher, so I said to myself it would be a good idea to watch the remaining parts so that the entire trilogy could gradually conclude. Well and the second part focuses on a pretty stupid character, who is portrayed by Mads Mikkelsen. And since we all already know that Mads is a great actor, you can bet that he sure had a lot fun with this one. The entire movie is built on him and thanks to him it is genius. No more words are necessary. Simply watch it and see for yourselves. It’s been a long time since I saw a movie that would stand or fall with a single character like it does in this case.
