Liked it, hope to see more.

I'm not the typical imdb movie-fanatic. I'm not even someone who really likes watching moves (I doubt I've ever watched more than 3 movies a month).

I liked this movie because the characters could really exist and really be living in Antwerp. Having often walked the thin line between the underground and the 'decent way of living' myself, this movie brought back memories when I watched some of the characters in there. Although the standard-issue 'tax paying upright citizen' might not believe this, I don't think I've seen one person in there that I couldn't compare to someone I've met in the past. This movie really shows live as it is living in Antwerp.

The choice of music i great. There's for example a drum'n'bass track in there at exactly the right moment that just made me want to start dancing right there.

I had some good laughs too!

I can't comment on (or care about) the technical aspects of this movie, but if mr Barman ever makes another movie I wouldn't want to miss it.
