Very dark and perplexing, this Nordic thriller features a Swedish investigator sent to Norway to investigate a strange murder. He gets tangled up in it too when he mistakenly shoots his partner, all in a remote city inside the Arctic Circle, where the sun never sets. With atmospheric lighting and a zippy pace, Insomnia is strangely compelling especially once you figure out the intricacies of the oddball plot (those Scandinavians aren't known for long, explanatory scenes). Being remade in English, Hollywood-style.
