Featured reviews
There are some particularly hilarious moments - I like the main character's naggy wife and her tarty neighbour, the fact that all of the cars in the car chases are Volvos, the killing at the fairground where a dead guy gets caught on some kid going down a flume and the frankly bizarre Once Upon a Time in the West pastiche towards the end.
Not really worth sitting through a very poor Universal Soldier clone for two minutes of laughs, though.
Another thing, what's up with these Swedes and their children? This film has them exploding all over the place...groovy.
And now for the movie... I saw this together with some friends a few years ago because we'd heard rumors about the movie and that it actually was shot in Veddige, the small village where we're from and that some of our teacher's and a few others locally well-known persons could be seen in it. So we watched it. It was actually really fun when you saw a new place or a person that you recognized, but everything between that was seriously really boring. As far as I remember it the movie was pretty 1980's action movie stereotype, but if that's what you expect - enjoy!
