Jönssonligan kommer tillbaka

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.

Sickan and Wall-Enberg were the only characters that somewhat resembled their original counterparts from Jönssonligan.

Dynamit-Harry, Vanheden, and Doris felt overplayed and exaggerated, losing the charm and personality that made them beloved in the classic films. Doris was never as involved in the heists as she is here, which felt out of place. Vanheden was completely rewritten into an unrecognizable and unenjoyable character. Dynamit-Harry, known for his clumsy, carefree nature, was turned into an action-driven, alert character-far from how we remember him. Doris, once warm-hearted, is now aggressive, pushy, and irritating.

The movie's pacing was uneven-some scenes felt rushed, while others seemed stretched just to pad the runtime. At times, the script appeared to lack content.

The police characters had a Beck-like tone but leaned too much into forced humor, missing the comedic style of previous Jönssonligan films.

While it was a respectable attempt, the drastic character changes made little sense, even considering the time gap since the last film. It's understandable that characters evolve, but the transformation here was too extreme.

It's a modern production, but it's so overproduced that it loses the nostalgic feeling that those of us who grew up with the originals cherished.

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.

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!

For someone who has grown up with Jönssonligan since I was nine years old when the first movie was released, it is kind of hard to accept any iteration released after the last movie with the OG cast. While 'Jönssonligan spelar högt' (2000) had a somewhat sentimental value but only being 'Meh', the three movies beeing released after that has me wondering where the franchise is heading. I have not seen 'Jönssonligan - Den perfekta stöten', so cannot comment on that. While 'Se upp för Jönssonligan' (2020) was barely passable, this new release in some ways gave me a bit of hope. Mind you, it is far from great, but still a trying effort. The quirkiness and uniqueness of the OG cast is nearly impossible to replicate so I leave it at that. What this movie tried to capture I don't know. We had some very obvious throwbacks to the original movies and someone in the crew at least tried to capture some nostalgia. All characters except Robert Gustavsson were more or less forgettable trying to replicate the essence of the OG cast. Robert Gustavsson as "Sickan" did the best job in my opinion, although not being able to entirely capture Gösta Ekmans performances. Maybe it was intentional, I don't know. All things considered, he was the keeper of this movie in my opinion. When I first saw his name attached to this movie I was afraid he would bring his usual below the belt humour to the movie, but was pleasantly surprised that he didn't. Good!

The movie kept me mildly entertained, but had some serious flaws. Mainly the coup was not up to the hilarious detailed standards we are expected to get. Somewhat rushed, somewhat overlooked. Everything is modernized, and I can't blame that, but it still felt very lacking. The coup wasn't fleshed out enough to have the "Jönssonligan" stamp of approval.

In all it was a valiant effort that I can give a solid six out of ten, althought it do not encapsulate what the original gang offered us. If they ever do a follow up with the same cast, I hope they pay attention to what made the older movies in this series so memorable.
