Fast action, Hollywood type movie lovers will not like this movie. I loved it.

Again a good example of Nordic Noir where characters, their weaknesses,struggles and psychology play a part at least as important as the movie thrill factor. This type of movie feel is in stark contrast with much of today's heavy, blunt Hollywood machinery where one has to leave any desire for subtlety out of the watching door. Good for the more evolved side of the brain. Loved this movie.

Terrible

Well, just 5 minutes ago I ejected the DVD from my player, and I'm now considering burning my ol' Samsung 511 just because crap like "Paradiset" have defiled it.

I don't know what's wrong with us Swedes. It's as if our taste in movies descends to the pits of hell when the origin of the movie is Swedish. The acting in this movie embarassing (why do swedish actors always stutter?) and the story is a bit incoherent. It's almost a requirement to have read the book. I HAVE read the book and I must say that even then I found the story a bit confusing.

Please, don't repeat my mistake and see this piece of crap.

Almost as boring as Sprängaren

.., but not quite. It has a few glimmers of hope, but overall it's just a mess of boring characters (that strangely seems a lot more alive in the book), bad script (again nothing like the book) and strange (or should I say bland) casting. Well, better luck next time Mr. Nutley!

Not a great version from the book

I had read the book before viewing this movie and I found that so much of the plot had been removed in making this movie that it became unintelligible. If I had not read the book I don't think I would have much of an idea what it was all about.

I wouldn't criticise the acting, but because the flow of the movie was uneven, the acting may have unfairly been made to also look choppy.

I think the movie could have been longer to more fully develop the story that Marklund wrote.

I was hoping for a better translation of the book to film - but I would certainly encourage anyone to read the book before watching the movie just so you know what is happening and why.

I liked it!

How come that most people hate this movie? It is as good as "Sprängaren", and Helena Bergström is one of the best actresses in Sweden, if not THE best!! Also, it was funny to see Lisa Nilsson in a movie.

Are people so used to high octane US-action, that those more subtle, character-driven movies now seem boring??

Anyway, both I and some of my friends here in Denmark like those two movies a lot.

And about you have to have read the book to understand it?? Not true, I don't think it was that difficult to follow. But then again, I really don't have a short attention-span. Give it a try.
