Review of Pusher III

Pusher III (2005)
7/10
Dubious South-Eastern Europeans in Denmark... Depicted by a Dane
14 July 2014
Pusher III is a good and apparently realistic round-up of the life of drug criminals in Denmark, with strong focus on Serbs living in Denmark and mostly dealing with shady stuff. Events are strange, but logical, although a lot of questions arise regarding the competence of Danish (police) authorities... Compared to previous episodes, the script is rather strong, although there was too much scenes about Serbian traditions and too little about Denmark (presumably intentional).

The cast is, however, "weaker" (= less catchy), Zlatko Burić as Milo outperforms others, but still, he is no Mads Mikkelsen or Kim Bodnia, I would have expected more charisma and management in his role. But all in all, there is not much to complain, Pusher III is still a far-above- average film about honour vs. betrayal, money vs. happiness, with several twists and giggling moments, but pushers are no heroes who live happy and glamorous life.
