Trivia:

In the scene where Frank, played by Kim Sønderholm, is hit over the head with a bottle by Simone, played by Julie Kaya Nielsen, Frank's expression of pain is quite real as the fake bottle turned out to be a lot harder than it was supposed to be. Sønderholm actually blacked out for a few seconds before regaining his conscience and continued acting. This clip is used in the actual film as strongly insisted by Sønderholm.

Review of Tour de Force

Several months ago the trailer for feature film "Tour de Force" was released. After seeing the trailer I could not wait for the day the film would actually be released. The trailer did just as any movie trailer should do and that is grab you and make you want more. Then as the big moment of the film's release arrives you wonder…"Did I see the best parts of the film in the trailer?" So many films being released today have the kind of trailers that do just that, they grab you, make you want to go see them, only to leave you walking out of the theater feeling very let down. I was given the honor of previewing the upcoming release of "Tour de Force" in full last night. Let me just say this…the trailer does not even begin to scratch the surface of the movie. I settled myself in comfortably but, was prepared to hit pause a few times to grab a snack, something to drink, or just take a break. I never moved!!! For the entire movie I sat glued to my seat. The storyline is truly awesome, it is action packed, well acted by the entire cast, cinematography was fantastic and Kim showed an even more intense side of his acting range. This movie is a must see on so many levels. Tour de Force has got to be one of the best movies I have seen this year so far…it holds its own against the Hollywood Blockbusters in my humble opinion. To get a better understanding of just how good this movie is, it is important to know that these type films are not my preference for viewing. I will watch them, but this one I will own and watch time and time again. It may have been a long road in getting this film done, but in the end Kim has a winner. So if you are looking to see a really great movie that keeps you on the edge of your seat better put "Tour de Force" on your list and keep an eye out for its release.
