-
Vinterberg’s writing and direction, and most of the performances, are sufficiently understated that the drama works on you, and by the last episodes the physical and psychological travails of the fleeing Danes have real force.
-
While the evacuation aspect of Families Like Us makes us almost as queasy as one of the characters became while hearing that news, it does set up an interesting circumstance to explore family bonds and how they change in extreme situations.
-
It doesn’t preach, it does have the themes work through the characters instead of the other way round (and has a cast stuffed with Danish heavyweights to help it). But it all feels a bit thin, a bit bloodless – like a thought experiment made flesh rather than a compelling, provocative drama.
