Livvakterna

This movie is the second of a trilogy. It's about Johan Falk a Swedish police officer. His friend gets caught in a situation with organized crime takin' over companies. And Johan comes to the rescue. This is a high speed action movie from beginning to end. And you won't be disappointed by it. The other movies are "Noll Tollerans"(Zero tolerance) and "Tredje vågen" (the Third wave).

As the former writer said, it´s a rather good action-thriller. The best one I have seen on Swedish cinemas anyway. Go see it!

Excellent thriller with great acting. As somebody already pointed out, there isn't very much of the Hollywood stereotype about the movie. With this I mean explosion, after explosions which are so big that they can't possible be. Sweden aren't exactly known for their big action/thriller movies, but this one will maybe open some eyes for those who don't know that Sweden are a bit more than Strindberg, Nobel and polar bears. Do they have polar bears in Sweden,? No. But according to a essay done in the US, more than 50% of the students thought so.

The movie has beautiful scenery, and the tension keeps you at your toes, though it hasn't anything really new about it. Does show though that Sweden can produce thrillers, and not only dramas, which may be nominated for an Oscar...

This film is the best Swedish movie that I have seen, its different than other films. The movie is "seen" from another point of view, its not the harassed family´s view but an old friend´s that is a tuff cop that is trying to help the family.

"Livvakterna" is a film that is thrilling from the beginning to the end, its also cool sometimes and it has the best car chase that I have seen in a film - in a Swedish forest road. It has also (as do many successful films) some humor.The film is not that violent ither except for the opening scene. This is a quality film that I just have to recommend.

This film is a "must" for those who are into realistic action. It has good story, good actors and it`s not typical American. I can only speak for myself when I say that I appreciate that guns are being properly handled, that magazines are being changed and that a simple car-crash does not make an explosion. "Livvakterna"/"Executive Protection" are an example to follow for all Nordic film makers. Dice throw 5!!!
