Stellead Don't listen to the Hype. It's awful

Teringer An Exercise In Nonsense

Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Roxie The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

Vimma I'm a big fan of Swedish teen movies, and Sandor slash Ida didn't disappoint me even though it is pretty predictable.The movie is based on a novel by Sara Kadefors (they are almost the same, you can pretty much say that you've read the novel when you've seen the movie ;) ). The main characters are Ida, a party girl with mentally ill mother from Stockholm and Sandor, shy, inexperienced, ballet dancing boy from Göteborg. They both feel kind of "outcast" in their social circles but luckily they meet each other in a chat room. The consequence is a relationship with many severe problems, consolation and friendship turning into love.It is basically about teenage life and finding your individuality, so of course it has been compared with Lukas Moodysson's F*cking Åmål. I adore that film and it is better and more original than Sandor slash Ida but I think that the same freshness, the horror and joy of being a teenager and problems that arise when you are trying to find and defend your own path in the world. I felt happiness, joy, pity and sadness, even anger, while watching both of these movies.Sandor slash Ida is not especially original but I think that it is well made and the actors fit perfectly in their roles. Both Ida and Sandor look, talk, dress and act just like I imagined while I was reading the book.

johan I liked this movie, it was not a wow-movie but I think that it was the best Swedish relationship movie since "Fucking Åmål".I saw it on the cinema with four of my friends and they all liked it even better than I did.So I don't agree with the previous reviewer that it is a crappy movie, but I agree that the plot is a bit predictive.The movie is about Sandor who is tired of his life as an uncool guy who has never has sex, been drunk, been to a party or even kissed a girl. He lives with his strict parents. And Ida who is tired of living her life as a cool chick with her shallow friends and her mentally ill mother. She is drunk every weekend, has frequently one-night stands, gets bad grades and takes drugs.They share their misery in a chat room over the net and try to help each other. They are starting a close friendship./ Johan
