Two born losers start a cleaning business. First, they have to travel all the way to Stockholm to buy one of a kind superhyper cleaning machine ('Tällaista ei ole muilla'). They are so convinced of their succes that even the fact that they live in Kokki's van, doesn't bring them down.

On their way to success there are many (funny) struggles and some killer slogans.

A quite realistic film about three youngsters, who have messed up their lives with drugs. Papu and Ippe want to get their dealer off their back. To do this, they have to smuggle a load of acid from Stockholm. The film was criticized because of its excessive use of certain f-word; although, it is the way (some) young people speak nowadays. A more interesting point is how the film portraits adults: they are either mean exploiters or they have no idea what their children are doing.

Basically the movie is a comedy about two families going to camping place to celebrate the Midsummer (=juhannus in Finnish). There isn't much action, except the hilarious rubberboot throwing contest. I don't think I ever get bored with it.

One of the best and funniest films ever made. Don't forget the first 6 episodes of the TV series. There are, however, a couple of nice ones also in the later episodes.

If you don't understand Finnish, Fakta Homma is a one hell of a reason to learn!
