In The Marco Effect, a 12-year-old gypsy boy named Marco is on the run, and he is the key to uncovering a story of multinational corruption on government funds earmarked for development aid in Africa. In a race against time, Carl Mørck and Assad find themselves confronted by cynical, powerful ringleaders and a brutal gang who are also on the hunt for Marco. (Nordisk Film Fin.)

Recensie (2)
Ulrich Thomsen is undoubtedly a good actor, but Nikolaj Lie Kaas gave the role of Carl more distinct character traits, which are crucial for the film’s sense of drive. And the “new Asad” is an absolutely bland sidekick, so the buddy chemistry between them, which is so important for this detective series, is pretty much gone. An even bigger problem, however, is the execution, even if we view the film independently of the previous instalments. The Marco Effect is blandly and statically directed, the dialogue-heavy plot lacks dynamism, and the action scenes (if we can even call them that at all) seem like something out of a mediocre Czech TV series (most notably in the chase scene at the construction site). The motif of the Czech Roma as the grey area of the story will be controversial in our country, but even if we set aside the local connections, it is embarrassing. Unfortunately, if something doesn’t change significantly with the next instalment, this interesting franchise ended with the preceding Journal 64.

I don't agree that the recasting of Nikolai Lie Kaas by Ulrich Thomsen was a misstep. His performance gave detective Carl Mørck a little more deliberate character, which fits the subject quite well. The stumbling block lies more in the rather bland scenario. However, I have no serious reservations about the directing and I quite like the music. (60%)
