POLAR (full review at Screen Realm)

Netflix’s new action movie, Polar, is based on Victor Santos’ webcomic and graphic novel of the same name. Polar tells the story of professional contract killer Duncan Visla (Mads Mikkelsen) a.k.a. The Black Kaiser, who is fourteen days off retirement. Once retired, his pension will cost his former employer Mr Blut (Matt Lucas), $8 million, unless Blut’s gang of assassins kill Duncan first, to become the default beneficiary.

Polar is the first of two frosty Mads Mikkelsen movies this year, with Joe Penna’s superb tale of sub-zero survival, Arctic, set for release in February. Do not confuse the two however, as Arctic is a sublime high tension nailbiter, while Polar is… most definitely not.
