Pojken med guldbyxorna

The reality hits hard when adults wish crime under the carpet and the youth can't cope with it. At least they do something for the community and share the money, banks hord unlawfull in their vaults. Danger, adventure, friendship and an effectful slingshot in the hand of a girl. I liked the film even when it is for younger kids a bit much, but they will grow up. Some great messages to humanity.

What the hell did I (and my kids) just experience???

Horrendous language throughout and no I'm not referring to the Swedish as I speak it fluently, however the swearing fro start to finish is shocking. "Skit", "Fan", "Jävla" and why not go international with "Fuck"?!?!?! Not words for children/youths to hear or use and definitely not in a "family" film.

Helping a homeless alcoholic get run over by a car and leaving without helping??? People getting beaten with crowbars??? Is that a family film in 2014? For what family??? The Addams Family???

NOT IN ANY WAY SHAPE OR FORM A MOVIE FOR THE FAMILY!!!!!

Even the kids asked if it was a suitable movie for them, and considering that they normally try to chance their arm to watch "unsuitable" movies that says more than any amount of words I can write here!

The "bonus" son got this for his 7th birthday from his mom. We watched it and I got so mad I had to leave the room!

It felt horrible having the kids watch when bigger kids use foul language, put other people in jeopardy, have no love for family, no empathy and are obviously raised by chimps.

I had to sit and see kids bribing homeless people to do the kids work ( summer work for kids) and at the same time they're mocking the homeless people and eating snacks on a bench.

My partner actually told me the movie got even worse, I couldn't finish it because I got furious.

I'm a little frustrated seeing this movie weighed down by 1 star reviews because of parents who are obviously unable to read movie ratings, or find the power button on their TV when they're so offended by what they're watching.

This is a perfectly good modern retelling of a classic Swedish story. Though the Swedish profanity is a bit harsh, it in no way diminished the film and I thought it was enjoyable throughout. The acting was surprisingly good from the lead boy actor (Lukas Holgersson) despite being so young, and the story flowed well with good pacing and fit withing a comfortable running length of 1:40:00.
