En gång i Phuket

This movie really shows how amazing Mr Magnusson is.

Nothing very special about this movie.. It is not bad, but neither nothing surprising.. It is quiet predictable, build on similar Holywood style-romantic comedies.. Though it was interesting to see it "from swedish point of view"... And the melodic swedish language is fun to listen

I watched that movie in 2012 and thought what a great movie. Then I came across IMDB rating and got a shock that it's just rate 5,6. Somehow, Swedish people really underrate their movies alot. It's a very light, happy feeling movie. It always bring smile on your face and reminds me my time in Stockholm during Christmas and new year. Sven was absolutely masterclass in his role but my fav charachter was that Norwegian girl. Makes me laught everytime and I think about the scene with the dog and their first night together :) I hope Peter Magnusson will make more movies with such a light topic and keep us smiling.

All I want to say is, You should watch the movie to have a great time. Its soo romantic.

We (my wife and I) gave it a solid "8". Maybe I should have given it a "9" ? For some reason we missed this movie when it was running on the cinemas. We've seen "Sommaren med Göran" more times that we can count, and love it. My brother saw it on our recommendation, he's response was a shrug and - Nah. If you like "Little Britain", "Friday nigh dinner", "The Inbetweeners" etc, you'll like this one too. The plot you've probably already read so I won't go into that. Right, just back on the computer from watching it a second time, this time with our children (10,12), thumbs up from them too :)

Just as the other series (+ The Inbetweeners movies) mentioned above, they grow on you, don't just watch them once.

Cheers,

Peter :)
