Everybody in Switzerland talked about this movie when it started... "Hollywoodlike action" and so on.... So I made the big error and watched this **** in cinema!! It's a pure waste of time when "Heidi" tries to go to Hollywood... *lol*Bad actors in a bad movie... The whole story is ridiculous and the whole work a big disappointment... The only good thing in this case is the feeling of felicity, when the movie's over and your not dead of boredom.A new hope for switzerland?? Dream on - I really don't think so....Swiss cheese has much more power than "Exklusiv"!! :-)

The first half of the movie is rather a funny experience, though, I'm afraid, only residents will appreciate it (let's face it, there isn't a lot of american-type action movies made in Switzerland...) As a matter of fact, the movie isn't able to surprise the audience more than once, though the cast is giving a reasonable acting. Unfortunately, the movie doesn't work neither as a media thriller as it was conceived to be by the film makers nor as an action movie because of the lack of story (i.e. the story's looking all the time for itself...). The portray of the murderer is by ways too thin.

In "Exklusiv" a reckless journalist is blackmailed and threatened by a murderer. What's really great about the movie is that it got made. It's the only Swiss feature film I know, that didn't rely on governement funding.But what you see is what you get and in "Exklusiv" that isn't really much. Even though the style is rather well copied from Hollywood thrillers, the story presented is rather thin. The movie lacks depth and relies to much on good cinematography. All the same, it's nice to see a Swiss movie.

After homicide of a politician's daughter, a mysterious voice informes a yellow press reporter by phone about time and place of the next assassination attempt. Remarkable debut of Swiss director Florian Froschmeyer with excellent camera-work, stylish pictures but a too fragmentary story. Copies the style of his examples (as Se7en) but never their complexity.
