The quality of the writing is very high, the theme and mode not entirely original, but brilliant. It is not only one of Woody's best films but one good enough to stand comparison with the best of other filmmakers. He shows his really emotional side in this one. Barging for the young women in this harsh world in a genuine way. Very realistic and an always up to date theme about struggles in society. Well made in every aspect. No voluptuous music or storytelling. Best seen in a company of at least two so you can laugh and at some point reflect together about the variuos scenes. Highly recommended for everyone.

Warning: Spoilers
I was just like my father who went on vaccation and came back and did not know at al what had accured. Everythingstarts in stockholm as usuall when things like this is going down. A few comrads get to together and plan something funny to do that involves some crime. Quick earend cash and the heat is on. They make narrow escapes but dont encounter the long law of the arm. I can say that this movie show a hole lot of the beauty of stockholm, especially in summertime that is.
To round things up I would like to give a big round of aplouse to the well known swedish actors in this movie. Few of them that also are no longer with us. Real good old 80 feeling movie that is very fun to revivie.

I always think of Greta when I read about environmental problems. And this is the truth described in this movie. Worth watching to get an understanding of what is going on in the world. We can't sit on our fat asses anymore and do nothing. This movie shows big comparatives don't care about more than profit. For the most part the film appears to be a faithful retelling of the high-profile legal battle. It has it start in American scandals that came to surface and is betrade in this great movie. Take your whole family and sit together and watch and discuss it. Much details that is accurate in it.

Typical swedish criminaldrama that take us on tour in stockholm city and the famous detective Beck. It is based on a true story what I heard of but lots of details are changed drasticaly. The Film tries its best to put a creative spin on a classic murder mystery concept and it does succeed in part. The ending is somewhat of a surprise, yet once the killer is revealed, what happens next is all too predictable. But I like the acting of Gösta Ekman he is know for his width so to speak and it comes clear here. A little sidestory for me personaly is that I use to live in the small town sala Where the real killer spent his last days att psycic ward.
