Great Gritty Trio of FilmsReviewed by M. Cole, 2009-12-24
This is the second film in the Pusher Trilogy. I have seen all three, and they all stand well on their own and together form a great body of work. The films are about the seedy underground world of drugs and crime in Denmark/Copenhagen. Well done, gritty, over the top, kind of a Danish "Mean Streets". All of the films are well worth seeing. I ordered this dvd quite inexpesively and used from an Amazon Merchant, came in great shape, on time and I'm a happy camper.

Perfect. Just caught a bit of one movie on IFC and did a little research and found trilogy on Amazon. This is a set that I will watch again and again.

Pusher 1 was great, Pusher 2 was average at best and Pusher 3 was good!

..it's hard to stop watching! I'd give the first and second one 5
stars, the third one maybe 4.5. It was as intriguing and
nerve-wracking as the first two but seemed a bit unbeleivable in a
few places which I won't go into. This set is the one to buy
though. If you liked the first one (and it's hard not to), rest
asssured the ones that follow keep up the pace. With these 3 films
you enter the 'pusher' world from the perspective of 3 somewhat
different characters. The main character in Pusher II had played a
supporting role in Pusher I. He's excellent in the second movie as
well. In Pusher III, we get to step into Milo's life - Milo also
played the drug lord (and very well I might add) in Pusher I.
Although the product picture shown on this Amazon site doesn't seem
to have any quote reviews on the case, my copy does. From the New
York Times, "The Pusher films pull no punch. They're a knock out."
From Variety Magazine, "Cult status on dvd is assured." And as
shown on this Amazon review, the review from the New York post
which (correctly) compares Pusher to early films by Scorcese. They
marketed this set right with these quotes. It's a pity they're not
included on the individual movies. But with or without reviews on
the box, the Pusher films are worth watching and would be
appropriate in any serious collection. Yet even for those who are
not fans of 'art movies', these movies, while undeniably works of
art, rock from start to finish.
