Easy Money review

A great Scandinavian thriller directed by Daniel Esponosia

Why you can trust GamesRadar+ Our experts review games, movies and tech over countless hours, so you can choose the best for you. Find out more about our reviews policy.

Joining Scandinavia's impressive array of crime thrillers is Daniel Esponosia’s Easy Money (aka Snabba Cash): the 2010 film that preceded the Swedish director’s US Denzel-starring debut Safe House .

Stockholm-set, it follows poor, money-obsessed business student Johan (Joel Kinnaman), whose shallow double life as a high-society playboy is only supported by his descent into organised crime.

The premise is hardly original and suffers from a story that, by its third act, feels padded out; nonetheless, this is a slick, tense and brutal portrait of a man out of his depth.
