Ett sista race

I am sure that worse things has been produced before. But throw in a large budget and a stellar cast and this must take some kind of prize, such as "the worst utilized movie budget ever" or "it should be impossible to fail but still they managed".

Now, I am a man that cannot stand the Swedish "buskis" genre. I despise Markoolios mother. I loath "Morran and Tobias". So, if you are like me, then just stay away from this utter rubbish.

However, should be avid followers of the above stuff, then maybe this is actually something for your demented brain to dwell upon. If you have absolutely no taste, combined with a very low IQ: Then go ahead!

Did the critics and the humourless reviewers on IMDM expect a "serious" film, just because serious, established actors also appeared in this romp? Or that you should expect it to be the "same" film as some Norwegian film which, if it used the same formulaic plot surely couldn't have been any more original or "better" than this one. You see, this is a parody of parodies - as films like the Fast and the Furious series have long since become parodies of themselves. You shouldn't take anything about this film, especially the comedy, seriously. Or try to "critique" it. First and foremost: as a parody of parodies, it delivers hugely, precisely by playing up all the formulaic tropes of the "street racing genre" and going over the top with "bad", over the top acting. The ending had me rolling around on the floor.

Most of this movie was a bit funny, but most of the plot was copied from the Norwegain movie called Børning aka Burning, that came out many years ago, 2014 I think. The Børning movie also got 2 follow up movies to make it series. The second one came out in 2016 and the 3rd one came out in 2020.

Anyone who has seen the Norwegian movie will recognize several scene all over the movie. Why they have copied so much from that movie in this movie I do not know, but clearly the writers was hoping no one would remember the original movie from Norway that was called Børning that came out 2014.

But I can guess that most people do not know where those ideas comes from, so the company figured out that they could rewrite the store 10 years later and make a very similar movie and earn a heap of money.

It only get worse from there as the actors in this movie just don't do so good with the characters that was done in the original movie.

So I will suggest that instead of seeing this movie, you go and see if you can find Børning (2014) and watch that instead because it is a lot better.

Not that bad. Better then i expected! Genuinely funny! Nice storytelling and with a nice style!

Not as bad as the rating says.

Filming is very good.

Creative and innovative nicly made and well put together. Great choice of actors, even if they arent thah good, the collective of actors makes it great. Johan Glans great as always.

So bad it actually gets great!

It's actually pretty well directed.

It really succeeds with its purpose of being funny. The rest isn't that good. But it isnt really necessary, to being able to be a funny and average film. Its totally watchable for the family or simply if you want to watch something fun and easy. I actually, believe it or not, recommend it. Watch it for yourself, for nothing more but a great laugh.

David Hellenius is behind the script and plays the main role himself together with all kinds of established actors. Unfortunately, it won't be particularly fun or exciting either. Anyone who has seen the films about Göta Kanal will recognize the humor, predictable jokes lined up together with funny characters.

However, there are well-made drone scenes of cars racing along the roads, nice crashes and well-made stunt scenes.

If you want to kill time and turn off your brain, it fits well, but if you want to challenge your intellect, you should definitely not watch this one. The film is definitely aimed at the younger audience.
