Utvandrarna

This movie is so tragic and beautiful at the same time. I haven't seen the original one or read the book so I can't compare. But the movie itself is one of the best Swedish movies I've seen! You have to see it.

It is really sad when reviewers can not get past their prejudices to objectively review a film. Yes there was a great first version. Yes there are the beloved books. However whether you love the film or not, it is not a 1 or 2! I saw with a group of diverse people and all very much enjoyed, including the teenagers. We saw beauty, drama, loss. Congrats to all involved.

I sincerely believe this is the worst movie I ever have seen.

The original story is of love, determination, history and the hardships of life. I was hoping to find at least one of those characteristics in this movie, unfortunately that was not the case.

We're told the story off two childish and selfish individuals who constantly are nagging with each other over small irrelevant issues. The nagging takes focus over the story that moves forward somewhere in the background.

The lack of character building makes it so you simply don't care if the characters would get harmed or die.

The wierd conversations and the unreasonable reactions together with the bad script and acting makes you completely unconnected from the story throughout the movie.

The best way to describe this film is as a bad high school play with too much money.

Poppe did catch the feeling and the essence from Vilhem Mobergs books with telling the story with his own words, the great author would have been proud.

Just go see it, no need to read the books before.

Added nothing to the already existing adaptations, and lacked the essence of Mobergs original masterpiece. Went into the movie theaters with an open and curious mindset, left it unsatisfied.
