I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

Undescribable Perfection

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Blistering performances.

Ondskan is a great movie.I watched it in the original language subtitled, and still, within minutes I knew I would enjoy it. The protagonist is a young lost man who finds in fighting a way to express himself, upset by the things that happen in his life. He is sent to a Boarding school were the seniors humiliate the younger on a daily basis. But our protagonist will have none of it and stands up to them from day one. A battle of forces starts and continues, and we are left to see if the seniors will manage to break the spirit of their rebellious new companion. If it wasn't subtitled, I would re-watch it almost immediately. The point is, this was a good watch. I sincerely recommend it.

Well... I was looking for a horror movie and the title suggested one, but I was wrong and it is a good thing because I doubt I would give a 10 to some horror movies...This is a drama, psychological drama with the great leading role of a young man. It helps I guess that he is also beautiful. Other roles are great too, especially of his opponent and his roommate. The film is very interesting, not a minute of boredom. The beginning may suggest one way of how the things will going on, but we see pretty soon that the story will have other way - the one of letting go and control of anger.It may sound silly, but, in a way, I consider this movie a modern sorta fairytale - good does triumphs over evil in the end.10 from me.

actually i would like to give 7 1/2 rating.i just saw this movie on television.it grabbed me from the beginning so i thought i d write something.the film is very well directed,it makes you live in the dorm with the guys,it has enormous power and has a claustrophobic atmosphere.and the idea of freedom and being respected as a human being and being left alone is in much need through out the movie.although some people saw this movie as a bully movie it is so much more.the whole attitude of the hero Eric,and his efforts to do the right thing,and be better than the "evil" classmates,make for the real excitement.the idea is not to wait when the hero is going to explode like Rambo and kick their butts.but how he is going to sustain his dignity and honor,which is the real victory not only against the bullies but against the ideology of the whole institution.it is a movie of hope.and it goes beyond that.it tries to teach us how to be strong and find ways to have our life the way we want it to be. and that power sometimes have a lot of faces.sometimes power does not belong to the people who try to control your life.real power is intelligence,but also you must be strong to give a good fight when they come for a challenge.and it has nothing to do about making an example for the others,as the film does not show that the other classmates finally recognised a hero in him.no.it rather has to do about getting the job done and move on.and keep the good things because this is were real quality exists.his friend is an example of intelligence and courage but unfortunately without the power to sustain.now it is true that in the end you really want our hero to give a good lesson to the bad guy,which is not what the movie is about,but ,hell..,it is a human need.but as i said he prefers to scare him,and move on.as for the ending,i have not read the book,i read what someone said that the book writes.it s exactly as it is shown.well the stepfather is not frozen,he just stares,i think the movie wants us to make our own decision.but "frozen" i think means that he did not touch him,as the stepfather was so scared,he just took his things and left.i will say one thing kind of negative about our hero.he seems to be real powerful and control his crazy demons,and only lets them out in good judgement.but is he going to always have a good judgement?a person who is able to be so strong and suffer all these punches in the face ,and keep the revenge in a good place ,isn 't someone that you are kind of scared of? i think that the character is very well written,and makes us think that the are always to sides to every story..should we want that kind of power?or maybe should we be like his friend who is bright,with courage but more "civilized"?there is a moment when the hero takes all this beating without sweating and his friend say to him "who are you anyway"..

I think Evil (or Ondskan) has two major inaccuracies.One: the OZ, Efilmcritic.com quote on the USA DVD cover: "It's Fight Club in a boarding school." Hardly. Sure there's fighting, and one of the many torments the bullies came up with, is a late evening punching match, but comparing the Evil to Fight Club is like comparing Muppets Take Manhattan to Friday the 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan.And two: the title itself. These young males at the said boarding school are bad and definitely bullies, but evil? Barely, that's how they were raised as was the consensus at the horrible school they attended. Maybe they didn't mean, those terrible punks, because at one point, the lead character, Erik (Wilson) is called "evil." Again, he's disturbed, angry, lashes out – all typical of most teens, especially beaten and battered kids, but evil? If there ever was a misdiagnosis, this would be it.Other than those two things, I thoroughly enjoyed this gem I happened to accidentally stumble upon as a $1.99 bargain bin used DVD at Blockbuster. Great acting with eye-candy to boot, a good story and revenge you could honestly support.Erik's beaten by his stepfather, probably nightly and when he takes out his anger, frustration and powerlessness on other kids at the schools he bounces from one to the next, eventually only one (boarding) school will take him. There is extreme order at this all-but militarily ran private school and it's run by the seniors. The elders/teachers/nurses, etc, look away as if not to be bothered with boys who's heads grow larger by the blows they give the young kids.Rebel Erik barely takes any of the abuse and is subjected to more. He befriends his nerdy roommate, Pierre (Lundstrom) who attempts to get Erik in line for the "normal" attacks from the older kids. Erik, rightfully so, will have none of that and acted a whole lot like if I were in his shoes. (Case in point, I wouldn't last 15 minutes in any boot camp. I would be either laughing or sneering at the higher ranking people above me. Yeah, that wouldn't go over well, hence the 15 minutes – if that, and you can imagine, neither did it for Erik.) Erik also falls for one of the female café workers – something strictly forbidden. Actually make that, even conversation with them is against the rules. In fact, though Erik doesn't appear to be setting to break all the "rules of tradition," he seems to be crossing them off the list as the movie progresses. He just finds, again, like I would, these rules aren't necessarily meant to be broken – they're just stupid.Actually giving these bullies above him some credit, when they couldn't (literally) shake Erik into line, they lash out against the ones he loves or favors, like friend Pierre. You truly feel (meaning, good acting on Wilson's part) Erik holding back as much as he can due to a promise he made to his mother to stay out of trouble, or being expelled. You'll see like the older cartoons, where the red starts from his feet and climbs until it's on his neck and eventually consumes him and steam comes out. You may not feel revenge is good, but here you'll root him on in the exciting conclusion.I would highly recommend this movie. Though it's not the most original, and it's predictable where it's headed, the acting, dialogue, the growth, and like I said, eye candy is worth the trip.
