Jönssonligan dyker upp igen

In my opinion this is the best Jönssonligan Movie. Everything is brilliant. Most of the quotes I make daily come from this. I know "Sickan" Charles Ingvar Jönsson, or in reallity the actor Gösta Ekman was hurt badly in one scene and replaced by his Brother.

But all ended well and the Film is really good. Still 2022.

This is one of the best Jönsson-ligan movies and it is quite fun. In the beginning of the film, the gang breaks in to the famous furniture market IKEA. The movie is, as all the Jönsson-ligan films, just a funny and pretty smart movie that can be seen at any time to make you feel good.

Wildly Popular bur mostly unfunny film series about a group of apparently intellectually challenged burglars who bungle their way through different heists. All characters are stock, the mastermind, the explosives man, the romeo man and the Woman. All make parodies of themselves being very well-known actors , something that is supposed to be funny. The characters are paper thin and there's little dialogue. The action is mainly slapstick and cartoonish, not unlike Tom and Jerry. Drinking alcohol and saying stupid things is supposed to be wildly funny in Sweden with her unfortunate Germanic cultural roots.

I'd be hard pressed to find a more Swedish scene than the opening robbery of IKEA, except that it's not depressing enough maybe. Other than that, the fourth movie about the Jönsson gang, and apparently the first not to be based on the similar Danish film series Olsen-banden, follows the previous films' formula and has very little new to offer; in fact, one might wonder why the gang keeps doing heists when they end up millionaires in every film.

If anything, Jönssonligan dyker upp igen seems more influenced by slapstick, which is unfortunate because there's something forced about a lot of the comedy in here. It does introduce Johannes Brost as the one-armed, steel toothed henchman, who is pretty fun as a blatant nod to the James Bond henchman Jaws.

Cool henchmen notwithstanding, this is probably one of the weakest entries in a series that was never all that strong, since both the comedy and the heist scenes are weaker than in previous films. Still, it is decently entertaining, and you're not much worse off watching this one than any of the others.
