Jönssonligan kommer tillbaka

Sorry, but I have lived in Sweden for many years, but never saw the original films. So coming in with no expectations, I was very dissapointed with this film. The comedy was definitely not laugh out loud, in fact the whole film seemed somewhat childish to me. Perhaps aimed at that market.

If your not invested in the Jönssonligan earlier films, then I'm not sure this film will do much for you. For me it just wasnt funny, I felt they could have done a lot more with the plot. We ended up switching it off towards the end.

It could and should have been so much better, I'm a huge fan of Robert Gustavsson, but in this film, I'm afraid he failed to shine for me.

It well be only because i like the style and the idea behind every "Jönssonligan" film. But this was definitely much better then i thought! It was great.

It wasent only unique and funny, it actually had a well written manuscript that fitted extremely well with the characters and a special plot. It had amazing performances.

Dont get me wrong, its a pretty easy and chill film to watch, especially around christmas. But it was pretty well made and pretty clever.

It's DEFINITELY giving the classic vibe from the old and original films.

You definitely get the same feeling. Robert makes a amazing performance in portraiting "Sickan"

You should watch this even if you dont like the original. Its a easy, well put together, well acted, well written and genuinely fun film to watch with your family.

After all the earlier failed attempts to reboot and reimagine Jönssonligan, i finally thought that they were on the right path this time with a version that seemed close to the original. And with Robert Gustafsson as "Sickan" - who's got a lot of similarities to Gösta Ekman - how could they fail? Well, they did.

A big thing with the original cast were the kookiness and charm of each character. They were all funny in their own way. But in this movie "Sickan" is the only one who's trying to be funny, but even he falls short ..literally, since some light slap-stick were the only comedy present. The rest of the cast is just there delivering unfunny and often very cringe lines. The writer obviously have a solid list of comedic experience, but he didn't manage to implement any of it in this movie?

One painfully apparent thing about Swedish comedy is the implementation of unnecessary English words and swearing. Is that suppose to be funny and/or modern? Did someone actually use the English word "gun" for some reason?

All in all, "Jönssonligan Kommer Tillbaka" had the opportunity to be a solid return to old form, but they totally forgot the part about being funny.

Well, a bit slow the third act. But hey, this is so much better than anticipated. Great script, funny, weird, lively, nuanced, I just loved it. Jonas Karlsson is great (as always) but so is the rest of the cast. Stylish, fast paced, witty.

For me, this reminds me of the old ones. Childish and playful but surely for adults. Robert Gustavsson is not the best actor but here - he reminds me a lot of Gösta Ekman.

The nod to the danish original is fun. My girlfriend chooses this on our kid-free Friday and it was a treat.

Also good music and great costume and set. And there is a bit of romance too, that is a bonus.

I enjoyed the movie a lot. It's definitely a lot better than the total joke of a Jönsonnligan movie that came out in 2020. Robert Gustafsson does an incredible job when playing Sickan. He's got the same vibe as Gösta Ekman did back in the days, which I enjoyed a lot.

As for the movie, the plot is good and feels more like the original films than the last reboot from 2020. I did feel that the movie was a bit too fast paced, at least during the first half of the film, but the story is still good and includes a fair amount of witty Jönssonligan comedy.

So, overall, very enjoyable movie which strongly resembles the original movies but in a modern setting. A little bit too fast paced but still good. 7/10. Recommend it!
