Tim Robbin's timeless satire on Hollywood is a modern clasic with a sharp script and stunning performances.

Underholdende film om Hollywood - blev regnet for et comeback af mesterinstruktøren Robert Altman. Idag skal man leve med at referencerne til virkelige Hollywood-skuespillere er ret 1980er-start90er agtige.

Lidt omstændelig på nogle punkter. Slutningen heller ikke særlig overraskende. Men fascinerende persongalleri og sjovt med alle de kendte skuespillere, der spiller sig selv.

Detta är ett spännande satiriskt mästerverk som lyckas vara lika fängslande och fascinerande från första klippet till det sista.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is The Player about? Toggle content

In this biting Hollywood satire, studio executive Griffin Mill (Tim Robbins) is struggling to keep his job and his sanity as he navigates a never-ending stream of pitches from desperate screenwriters. When he receives death threats from an unknown writer, Mill assumes it's just another disgruntled employee - but things take a dark turn when he accidentally kills the wrong man. As the body count rises and the police close in, Mill must scramble to cover his tracks and save his reputation in this wickedly funny and unforgettable romp through Tinseltown's underbelly. Featuring a star-studded cast, including Susan Sarandon, Bruce Willis, and Julia Roberts, The Player is a razor-sharp skewering of Hollywood's greed, ego, and amorality.
