Joep: Embezzlement?

Strong Dutch movie, 8 November 2003
9/10
Author: jos-destrooper from Belgium

The story about four men in their mid-life crisis is well written and does not loose focus at any moment. Convincing actors. I did not like the scene with the prostitute. All scenes are realistic and seem to come out of really every-day life. The psychology of the friends is well described by strong dialogue.
