As others have said, good plot with unexpected twists. Middle aged businessman with a baggage of some financial cheating falls for his young associate who demands that he chooses between her and his family. Pretty standard set-up, but what follows is far from what you expect. Murders, blackmail and dark secrets from the past . The script sometimes feels strectched, but hey, its a movie!, keeps it it interesting, makes you wonder hwat happens next!!
I think the surprise ending would be fine as it is IF the characters (or at least one of them) were a bit more likable.
Regardless, a worthwhile film to watch, keeps you guessing to the end!

Interesting and unexpected plot twists with unlikable characters
Nice Danish Crime Thriller
Loving Adults based on a novel, is a crime cliffhanger with unpredictable and fascinating story about love, jealousy and sacrifice. Its all about suspense and dark twists in order to keep a failed marriage intact.
I won't say much more, other that it is worth a watch. The leading actress is amazing, she really is the start of the movie.
The production values are good. The cinematography is cold and beautiful as you can expect from the Scandinavian industry.
In general, Loving Adults is quite an entertaining thriller with enough twists and turns to keep the viewers in their seats. The ending feels a bit weak in comparison with the climax
Of course it has its flaws but overall is worth a watch!
Came in with low expectations because US shows have destroyed the genre
I was expecting a scorned wife who can't think for herself because that's how this kind of show always goes. I hated Leonora because she seemed weak, and then I loved her. There are only a handful of times that we root for villains and this was one of those times for me. She first appeared to be the stereotypical housewife who (stupidly) sets aside herself in favor of her family and so her husband gets to be successful.
But, she was deliciously cunning and manipulative, not typical weakling who will eat, pray, love after her marriage breaks up.
I love it when I can't predict how shows end. The twist at the end was an interesting flourish.
