Mongoland

I saw this movie the weekend it opened. And I must say, what a movie! The first movie ever from Stavanger proves to be both fun and entertaining, without losing it's depth. Shows that big budgets and star actors is not always important if you have a story to tell.

I smiled all the way. Don't miss it.

This is a funny x-mas movie. It's filled with love,the x-mas spirit, ambition and humor. If you haven't seen this movie, I think you ought to. I don't want to give the plot away, but I think I can give away the ending; it ends good. =) See the movie or be square.

I've been checking out Scandinavian films, because I'm from scandinavia and therefore it seems natural and easy to relate to the films that are from this area of the world. And I've seen a lot of excellent danish movies and also really good Swedish movies, but this is the first really good norwegian movie I have seen:-). Kristoffer Joner is a fantastic actor and I will be looking out for him, he has done a good job in the movies I have seen, and this movie is no exception. The movie itself is captivating and funny at the same time. The main theme is love and the relationship between male and female, and it's played out really well. Both of the main characters play excellent and you believe their story and the side characters are maybe a bit exaggerated but that is what is funny in a movie and it works. Actually maybe they are not so exaggerated, because people who are really their own do exist:-)

You definitely do not need to be from Stavanger to enjoy this movie. I love it, and I'm from the other part of the country. The story itself is not very unique or anything, but the actors are good and the dialogue is extremely amusing. I hope they did a nice job translating it, though.. And after all: a movie which starts and ends with Low's "just like christmas" can't be bad :)

funny movie about a girl from Stavanger thats looking for her old boyfriend. Lots of cute girls. And very good actors. A movie for everyone. good story and plot. One of the best movies made in Norway ever! Lots of good music. The only bad thing to say about the movie is that its partitially in black & white
