Rent the original instead: Groundhog Day with Bill Murray. Do NOT waste time and money on this lousy movie! Sometimes I'm ashamed of being swedish...
I gave it a the 2 out of 10 it truly deserves, the reason i did'nt give it a 1 is because the high amount of swedish celebs in the movie, which is quite funny to watch, although I can't imagine WHY they actually agreed to be part of this movie...

Swedish movies are usually a rare phenomenon in Hungarian cinemas, so I was pleased to see that Naken is already the second one this year. Although it is very far behind the recent Sånger från andra våningen (which is a magical movie!), it is still an enjoyable comedy. Originality is not the keyword here: the whole story is a Swedish remake of Groundhog Day and many of the gags are also taken from other movies. (However, it is anyway hard to show anything new in film-making and this is not really expected from a lightweight comedy.) The reason I liked this movie is that despite of all the copying there is more originality left in it than in a usual Hollywood comedy. Perhaps this is due to the fact that naked men are shown in a natural way (imagine how much work would be invested in a prudish Hollywood movie to cut the "thing" out), perhaps this is just the "exotic bonus" of movies made outside the mainstream movie-making countries: I liked the "Swedish taste" (or what I thought to be the "Swedish taste"). Obviously this excentric movie is not the best way to look into Swedish society, but in some scenes you still get a glimpse of it.

I couldn't believe my eyes when I read the comments on "Naken." They were VERY positive. Then I realised that they must be written by the filmmakers themselves and friends to the filmmakers.
I happened to see this turd for movie... and comparing it to "Groundhog Day" is nothing but a sin.
I don't feel like writing an extended review on the film... because I feel that it would be a waste of time.
If you want to see a high-quality Swedish comedy... watch "Vuxna människor" and "Adam & Eva"... if you have already seen those... then I don't know what you should see... nothing Swedish anyway.

While watching this movie I found myself laughing loud now and then to all the funny comments and details. However, the movie gets kind of boring from time to time, there are just too many repetitions of the same jokes. If not a comedy masterpiece, this movie is at least really fun and should be watched by everyone with a sense of sick humor!

Sometimes one wonders what's ****ing wrong with people, just check some of the other people's reviews of this poor excuse for a movie. They actually liked it, but they're probably the same people who rents movies starring Denis Rodman. On too the movie, even though there's nothing to really say, the story sucks, the actors can't act they're way out of a subway cart and the shooting and directing is plain bad, bad, bad. Sure, it stars a bunch of swedish celebrity cameos but since did that make a good picture. The people involved in this mess should be banned from making movies forever. Period.
Interesting and a great laugh! :) Shows proof of intelligence and humor behind the making of the film. Many different Swedish celebrities, more or less famous, popping up here and there in small roles. Good Swedish movie.
"Naken" is a simple story about a man who wakes up naked in an elevator, as a result of his bachelor's party. Without clothes, money or any help from anybody, he realizes that his weeding takes place in about two hours.
The crazy hunt through Summer-Stockholm is really, really silly but extremely funny. Not only does Henrik Norberg but also several other Swedish celebrities show it all, being true to the title which of course means "Naked" in Swedish.
The funniest swedish film since "Sällskapsresan" of 1980!

This might be the worst movie in the history of cinema. Watch it if you get a chance and feel the rock bottom. It ain't gonna get worse. Actually it must almost be difficult to make a movie so devoid of talent, plot and acting. 10 year old kids doing something for their comrades at school and we're not talking about the smartest kids here might be the nearest equivalent. Projects as bad as this gets stopped on the way but something went wrong here. A monstrously stupid script made it to the screen. I had to watch it to the end. There's an ocean between this movie and the second worst one.
Gimme me money, actors and a camera and I'll make a better movie in a month. This is no bragging - most of us would.
I'd be very surprised if anyone who thinks this movie deserves even 2 stars don't know the film makers personally or were involved in the project.

Its not fun too see a naked guy running around naked in downtown Stockholm in a stupid and worthless movie. Its also not fun to see this utterly stupid actor not acting. This movie fails in all levels. Its sexistic. Its stupid. The actors are emberrasing. The plot is non existing or very very confusing. The filming is bad. The sound is bad. I get an headache from the stupidity overlord. Everyone involved in this movie should be ashamed of themselves.
Its not even so bad its funny, its just bad bad bad
This could be the worst swedish movie ever. Stay away att all cost. This film make people sick
It should be expelled from planet earth

Loved it!!! You crazy swedes sure know how to make brilliant comedy, and this is no exception! "Ground Hog" day was great, but I actually liked this one better. Swedes make better comedy than Hollywood, or perhaps their humour is more appealing to me. They are not afraid to take things one step further, which is exactly what they did, and what made this movie better than "Ground Hog" !
Best of luck to the makers, as to future projects!

This movie is absolutely outstanding, it gives you the laughter of the year! See it! Follow Anders as he's trying to make it to the church on his wedding day...and how he has to re-live the happenings after his bachelorparty over and over until he gets it right...if he'll make it right! Highly recommended!

Naken (Naked) is a hilarious journey into the world of things that can go wrong when getting married. After a disastrous bachelor party the groom wakes up naked in an elevator, two hours before the wedding. To make things worse our unfortunate hero has to relive this nightmare over and over again in the tradition of "Ground Hogs Day". One more thing... in Sweden naked means butt-naked, not the Hollywood this-guy-is-naked-but-we-can't-show-it naked. Watch out also for Playmate Victoria Silvstedt who makes her feature film debut!

Just laughed my head off. Really great movie, I just loved everything about it. It´s kind of a new "Groundhog Day" but only better. And it´s not that bad seeing great looking kind of nude women all the time. Victoria Silvstedt för example. Simply damn funny and great movie 9/10
This is a movie that will no doubt make you laugh quite a bit. It is light entertainment with a twist in the end. You will first truly understand this comment once you've seen the movie. :I For me to vote this movie a perfect ten; 1: the main character should have been a nude woman... 2: it should have been in my own language so i could understand it all. 3: the movie should have been a little more realistic in the way the characters interact. But then again this judgment might be a little off, due to reason number 2. I have no idea why we keep on seeing those clumsy cops. If somebody wanna comment on that. Be my guest. Funny movie! Watch it if you want to laugh.
We all know the classic comedy Groundhog Day, where Bill Murray plays a man who has to re-live the same day over and over again. Since then, that same concept has been used and are still being used in movies. Though, this is the only Swedish movie I know of where they use the concept of letting the main character re-live the same day again and again without knowing why. The movie has to day achieved at least some cult status, which I actually think it deserves. It's not the best Swedish comedy ever made but you do get many laughs!
