Blasted - In due contro gli alieni

It never happened to me to watch a movie and hate absolutely every character. It's really amazing that a director can screw up everything in a movie. Waste of opportunity and a waste of time for me, because I watched it until the end.

This film was not as bad as the ratings. It was funny and had good structure. The characters were likeable and each cast member brought fun elements to their role. Making it into an alien film was a good choice as with the added elements of laser tag the film took good direction. Overall a pretty good and fun film that I could see there being a sequel for.

I don't like slapstick comedy and I didn't think I'd enjoy this. But the trailer look like an Edgar Wright film so I have it a whirl.

The stand out scenes all took place in the police station with the three leads Axel Bøyum, Fredrik Skogsrud and Ingrid Bolsø Berdal. For me this is where the humour was the strongest. Their comic timing was perfect and I can't help but think it would have been a stronger movie had it have been those three stuck in a room during an alien invasion. Ingar Helge Gimle provided nice additional support also.

I found the scenes in the woods with the other buddies set the film back a lot. André Sørum did his best with what he had but one can't help but wonder how much better he'd have fared at the police station with the main players.

It's a movie I'd watch again. It was light hearted fun and just what the world needs in these dark times

6/10.

Don't get the low score? Deserves a least a 6 or 6,5 in my book. It's was a lot of fun! Great execution and funny actors who nailed the buddy tongue-in-cheek action. I liked it was Norwegian and it is very well made. I wouldn't mind a continuation of the story.

Norway, you did it again!

I so enjoy Norwegian humor, and science fiction movies. Put those two together, and you have a hit. I can understand most Norwegian, so I watched with subtitles (hate dubbing). There were many moments when I laughed so much my gut ached. Reminded me a bit of Saun of the Dead, minus the zombies. I am totally not getting the low ratings. Watch this!
