This true story of the infamous Bastøy Boys Home correctional facility in Norway, begins with the arrival of seventeen-year-old Erling, a rumored murderer. He immediately clashes with the island facility's governor (Stellan Skarsgård), who believes manual labor, rigid discipline, and harsh punishment are the only methods that can turn the boys into honorable members of society. Refusing to accept the constant abuse, Erling slowly rouses the rest of the boys out of their resigned existence, and encourages them to fight to lift up their spirits. When tragedy finally falls at the hand of the sadistic dorm master, Erling leads his comrades in a courageous and vicious rebellion that will bring them head to head with no less than the Norwegian Army. -- (C) Film Movement

Some New Trailer For King of Devil's Island

New Review For Movie King of Devil's Island

Rather one-note in its bleakness, and doesn't have a vast amount to say beyond 'reform school sucks'.
Tom Huddleston-Time Out

Possibly no one else does "grim" with as much unsparing enthusiasm as the Scandinavians.
Liam Lacey-Globe and Mail

Skarsgard is riveting throughout as a man whose high morality is steeped in hypocrisy and whose mask of civility easily slips, when challenged, to reveal the monster beneath.
Bruce Demara-Toronto Star

[An] austere and occasionally stirring yarn.
Robert Abele-Los Angeles Times

The film plays well, and is involving, but in one form or another, this is a story often told.
Roger Ebert-Chicago Sun-Times

"King of Devil's Island" is surprisingly effective, and affecting, given the familiarity of its material.
Walter V. Addiego-San Francisco Chronicle

It's a very measured account of how men will accept their fates to a degree, slowly coil up and then spring with anger.
Graham Young-Birmingham Post

A slow-burning but satisfying drama that persuasively blends elements of Scum and Papillon.
Allan Hunter-The List

The acting is superb and director Marius Holst's embellishment of the facts keeps your attention throughout.
Alex Zane-Sun Online

There's an impressive force to the performances and, amid the ice and snow, the film burns with a sense of injustice that deservedly made it a hit in Norway.
Jason Solomons-Observer [UK]

Very good but very heavy; the film's chilly, snow-blasted environs accurately reflect the tale's dour tone.
Jim Schembri-3AW

Based on a true story, there is a dramatic force here, even if the whole is a trifle long and repetitive.
-This is London

A slow-burning film with echoes of Papillon in its celebration of an indomitable human spirit.
Allan Hunter-Daily Express

Robust acting and crisp direction eases the old-rope material through to the inevitable conflagration.
Xan Brooks-Guardian [UK]

beneath the staid, ordered, colour-dulled surfaces of Marius Holst's King of Devil's Island lurk various forms of hypocrisy, corruption and abuse, suggesting something very rotten in the (then) state of Norway.
Anton Bitel-Little White Lies

A grim treatise on the origins of violence, with excellent performances from the largely unknown young cast.
Shaun Munro-What Culture

This may be a familiar tale - rough-around-the edges dissenter against a barbaric system - but it's well told and the icy wastes of the island provide a chilling backdrop to the cruelty dealt out to the boys.
Tim Evans-Sky Movies

A bleakly beautiful, austere film that doesn't patronise its audience.
David Hughes-Empire Magazine

It's pleasing to see something from the Nordic countries that doesn't involve police procedure and chunky jumpers.
Neil Smith-Total Film

King of Devil's Island is poetic story of friendship and adolescence in the bleak, cold and brutal 1915 Bastoy. It's a snow covered, potent mixture of Sleepers, Shawshank Redemption and Lord of the Flies.
Blake Howard-2UE That Movie Show

The true events on which the film are based are wonderfully stranger than fiction, and by the end of the film I was deeply moved and thrilled by what I had seen.
CJ Johnson-ABC Radio (Australia)

The majority of the films running time is spent with these boys. We feel their hunger, their humiliation and the chill of the ice-bound landscape they call home. As a result King of Devil's Island is a film set to make viewers sad and angry.
Matthew Pejkovic-Matt's Movie Reviews

A compelling story of defiance after hypocrisy transforms discipline and order into oppression and brutality.
Thomas Caldwell-Cinema Autopsy

Honest and authentic, the filmmaker takes his subject seriously and gives us a complex and thought provoking film
Andrew L. Urban-Urban Cinefile

Escape might be top of mind for the rebellious new recruit as he is inducted into a society intent on crushing every ounce of self-respect, but it is the relationships that evolve that become the film's beating heart
Louise Keller-Urban Cinefile
