The cargo ship MV Rozen is heading for harbour when it is hijacked by Somali pirates in the Indian Ocean. Amongst the men on board are the ship's cook Mikkel (Pilou Asbæk) and the engineer Jan (Roland Møller), who along with the rest of the seamen are taken hostage in a cynical game of life and death. With the demand for a ransom of millions of dollars a psychological drama unfolds between the CEO of the shipping company (Søren Malling) and the Somali pirates.

New Trailer For A Hijacking
Review For A Hijacking
A nail-biter of a thriller that eschews conventional thrills, Tobias Lindholm's verité-like tale of a Danish cargo ship hijacked by Somali pirates is rivetingly low-key.Geoff Pevere-Globe and Mail
A finely spun tale that eschews sensationalism to focus on the human toll on the captives, their families and their employers back home.
Bruce Demara-Toronto Star
This isn't an action picture; it's a picture about the suspense and terror of inaction.
Tom Long-Detroit News
Gripping and tightly focused.
J. R. Jones-Chicago Reader
Lindholm rations the meat and potatoes of plot to keep us captive at the bargaining table. It's a sadistic ploy that produces a real payoff.
Joe Williams-St. Louis Post-Dispatch
A Hijacking is one of those perfect films that crop up every few years to prove that with true artistry, even the most exhausted genre can yield something new, rich, and strange.
Tirdad Derakhshani-Philadelphia Inquirer
Harrowing drama of modern-day piracy as a sort of illicit corporate takeover; riveting and exhausting.
MaryAnn Johanson-Flick Filosopher
As well as the film's almost documentary realism (it's required viewing for shipping personnel), here the brief but telling extras show off Lindholm's dedication to accuracy.
Kate Stables-Total Film
In A Hijacking, we watch as talks break down -- at one point, the two parties are communicating by fax -- and are never certain how it will play out.
Chris Knight-National Post
The result is not as dramatically neat as a Hollywood version of this material might be, and a twist at the end has a dark irony no mainstream film would dare.
Jay Stone-Canada.com
As immediate and as hard-hitting as a punch in the gut, sucking you into a tension-filled situation in the corporate offices and on the high seas.
Sean Means-Salt Lake Tribune
While there's a certain tautness to the result, the many longueurs along the way almost make one yearn for an infusion of good old Hollywood pizzazz.
Frank Swietek-One Guy's Opinion
A tense, gripping drama filled with psychological showdowns from Danish writer-director Tobias Lindholm.
Clint O'Connor-Cleveland Plain Dealer
... has an embedded feel without being a real-life report or documentary at all. It's a fictional film that hits both with blunt force and a surprising amount of complexity.
Eric Melin-Scene-Stealers.com
A Hijacking is more about one incident than about how it relates universally, but in thoughtfully exploring the specifics and emotions of that incident, Lindholm is able to show how modern life sometimes seems devoid of any accord.
Noel Murray-The Dissolve
A lean, stressful nail-biter, smart, well-written, nicely shot and wonderfully performed.
Anders Wright-San Diego Union-Tribune
[Omar and Mikkel are] like Marcus and McTeague in Frank Norris's 1899 novel, handcuffed to each other in a struggle that could well end in mutually assured destruction.
Sarah Boslaugh-PopMatters
Tobias Lindholm's slow-burning thriller makes a bid for verisimilitude that extends well beyond the use of natural light and handheld cameras.
Curtis Woloschuk-Willamette Week
Though the acting in "A Hijacking" is superb, the film is strictly a "follow-the-dots" offering. This is not entertainment. It is another overwhelmingly depressing foray into corporate greed.
Jeanne Kaplan-Kaplan vs. Kaplan
"A Hijacking", if eligible, is an early contender for Best Foreign film at the 2014 Academy Awards.
David Kaplan-Kaplan vs. Kaplan
It's an effective piece of work that will leave you longing for a shower, a nap, and a warm meal.
