Kattiera Nana I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
Benas Mcloughlin Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.
Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
stonedraim **** May contain strong spoilers ****This is a review made by StoneDraim... and that means that if you want to read a probably different kind of review, keep reading....This is my personal experience, my personal point of view/perspective and my personal opinion... and my opinion is just one of like 7 billions in this world.I got two things to say about this movie...no, three things. 1. The more you focus one something and lift into the spotlight, the more you will get of it. 2. All successful people are bad, and all "martyrs and sad people" are good. WHAT? The clear and political message in the outer edge of "Mammas pojkar" is just too absurd...and, to be honest, sad. 3. It is Swedish. I stand my ground.Over to the movie as a product: - The production : Typical Swedish production. Some nice camera sweepings, that is it. Some blood also... in a Swedish comedy; a little rare. Look at 1:21:30. - The actors : Typical Swedish actors. - Entertainment : Where...? - Age : None, in mypoint of view.4,0 out of 10. (The final rate is based most on my own entertainment of the movie. Short elucidation of the rating: 4 Failed. Lacking in character. 3 Bad. Weak. Foul.)
Tord S Eriksson The story about two brothers, pure metal-heads, and their mother, who happens to be the local priest, is a bit uneven, but there a lot of individual scenes that are great, but the whole is far from perfect.The boys live in a flat owned by the local outlet store, and when the new owner changes the jobs they are supposed to do in the shop, they walk out and move in with their mom, and things start to become more, and more, chaotic.A lot of good actors, even internationally acclaimed actors, but a at times feeble script the whole isn't as good as the parts.Not bad, with quite a few good one-liners, and not a film you'll easily forget, due to its unusual setting, but proves, again, that a weak script will never make a good movie!
j_a_newton Warning: Contains spoilersI thought "Speed 2" was the lowest abyss to which filmmaking (used in the most liberal sense of the word) could descend.I was wrong. Wasting too many minutes writing this review, after having been robbed of an hour and a half of my life to endure this ordeal - which was nothing but extended torture in spite of the option to fast-forward past some of the abundant dull moments - serves only the one purpose of warning everybody else to steer clear from this meltdown as you would avoid the plague. If it comes anywhere near you, run for your life.Writing "Warning: Contains spoilers" at the top of this review was a no-brainer. There is simply nothing to spoil. No plot, no jokes, no acting, no character development, no twists, nothing. I mean, literally nothing.It starts at cringingly awful and goes downhill from there.(Oh by the way, did I write something about "no brain"? Now there's a Freudian slip.)Calling it amateurish is an insult to amateurs worldwide. Words simply are not sufficient to describe the full horror of this disaster. It's when you're subject to films like this you realise how poor our language is, how devoid of suitable invectives, to describe it.You stop cringing at the attempted jokes about a few seconds in, and instead feel absolutely embarrassed, not by the behaviour of the characters, but for the sake of the people involved in cooking up this mess.And just when you thought it couldn't get any worse, the film moves into an eye-rollingly abhorrent attempt of spoofing a music video, only to be followed by yet more nothing. And then all of a sudden the end credits roll, leaving you thinking that perhaps this was not meant as a serious movie attempt after all, but simply a showcase for Steadicam, the use of which is employed ad nauseam and well beyond to the point that we all want to throw up from seasickness, providing we haven't emptied our intestines in such manner already.In preschool, we thought that dressing up in silly costumes (involving pink wigs) and adding stupid accents was hysterical. Seeing a movie actually trying to produce comedy for adults in that very way makes you seriously want to use some of the metal boys' chains and shackle those responsible for this epic failure to any point that can be calculated to be as far from any movie-making equipment as humanely possible. The planet Uranus, for instance.Subjecting the general public to such films should be classed as acts of crimes against humanity under the Geneva convention.
Varghjarta I think some people judge this movie from the wrong angle, and might expect too much. If you need to be fed with the same formula over and over this will not be for you.If you enjoyed "Bröllopsfotografen", and you like heavy metal you will most likely enjoy this one too. The story of two 35 year old's who live in a small Swedish town, "worship" the band who "almost had a hit in the 80s" by the name of "Ludor". Two brothers whom takes crap from no one and makes a hell of an effort to be as hard, heavy, metal and "un-gay" as humanly possible. Two brothers who swear to avoid women for "they only seek to control men and force them into cuddling and speak baby speak/language to pets and make a mess of our music collection"; as far as they are willing to admit at least. Incredibly spoiled they have few worries in life, until their carelessness leads them down a road that will harden their steel thru trials of fire!(!)I found this movie charming and unexpectedly funny and with one of the best sound tracks in Swedish cinema in recent memory. Watch this with a loved one or friend and laugh at the situations before you.It's not a masterpiece with layer upon layer of philosophical depth, but does everything have to be better than the last flick we saw for it to stir anything within us?.. Just watch it and don't let the low ratings scare you off!
