A top movie. The book was ok but the movie was faboulos. And I have never seen Helena Bergström so good. The movie nearly overflows with great acting parts. The best Swedish movie in years.

Film based from the book with the same name. A true (tragic) lifestory of Hasse P. Good acting by Persbrandt and Lindström Bolmgren who has the correct swedish accent for the specific area. The film was good but not better than the book. The book has a way better ending a couple of months after the world record which you cannot predict. Also I think the book has more comedy and tons of more details than the film. Overall a good job especially with 80's feel and nostalgia.

If you live in Sweden and watched Swedish movies once in a while it's not hard to get pessimistic about them,since many Swedish movies are pessimistic about life. if it's not a criminal drama then it's about someones downward life but once in a while a uplifting charming film pops out. This film has what's called the hollywood script format,which means it starts low and ends high. The town it's filmed at could be any small town in Sweden and same goes with the people, like Springfield in "the Simpsons" I thought it's going to be something cheesy,plotless story line but I was positively surprised.It was about the human spirit and not give up on life or you give up on yourself

I don´t like Filip and Fredrik very much and thought I was in for 90 minutes of political mess but I actually really liked the movie. Persbrandts performance really lifts the movie and the script is believable and realistic. Well-written. Actually all main actors and actresses feels genuine. Good casting. The parts with Filip and his father is in my opinion the weakest link but not enough to bring any shame to the movie. This is the first time I experience Filip and Fredrik as humble instead of being condescending or making of fun of odd characters. Well done.

Tycker förresten att det ironiskt att de småstadsfolket hatar mest med stadsbor eller Stockholmare, är i princip förkroppsligat av Filip och Fredrik.

This is one of the Sweden funniest Movie and Helena Bergström is ok for the first time
