Here's a good Danish movie. A Hijacking (2012) is about a Danish cargo ship that's taken by African pirates.
If you're looking for "Die Hard VIII: Vengeance On The High Seas" this is not your movie.
This is a slow-developing (at first), highly-suspenseful drama - more concerned with humanity than bullet-ridden bad buys. Thank you, Denmark!
The acting is great. It seemed more like a documentary than fiction. But I really liked its use of subtitles and different languages. These may seem like a trivial things, but writer/director Tobias Lindholm uses these better than any movie I've ever seen before.
I, personally, would've made a couple different choices than Lindholm did later in the film. But it really is a personal, suspenseful drama worth renting!
