Pusher 2: better than the predecessor. I haven't seen the last in the trilogy but

Films/DVD Asylum

Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

already it's one of the finest portraits of crime every filmed.
None of the Hollywood tricks here, so evident in Godfather films, i.e. make one group of criminals appear heroic by personalizing them and demonizing their adversaries.
They're all scum in this series, though they are well fleshed out and the acting is superb.
Mads M is perfect in 2 as Tonny, the slightly dippy character who was trashed and disappeared in Pusher 1.
These films are as intelligent and sure-footed in the crime world as the best from Japan or S. Korea, and that's saying a lot.
