Gösta

Captures what you would think to come out of a Swedish movie/series. The plot is somewhat predictable but very well played out. Brilliant acting from the main characters!

I love this series. Having trouble with most Swedish tv-series for over dramatic acting, this is spot on. So real, yet totally absurd. The story is slow paced, yet there is always something happening to keep it interesting. The characters are all unique and equally interesting. A masterpiece if you ask me.

This is a series about the kindest man in the world. Maybe too kind for his best folk's. His kindness gets him in trouble Big time... It's a nice series, worth looking at 😃👍

Moodysson is somewhat of a genius, but he's a Swedish genius. As such, his work is defined by his ability to translate the complexities of the social conflicts faced by in eid md the most homogenous cultures in Europe. As an American who grew up going to Sweden, I have both loved and been confounded by the culture, admired it and criticized it - so his films, and definitely this show, have reflected those feelings over and over and I can't get enough.

Thankfully most Swedes are not as crazy as the lot in this show, but the show is not only a critique of their behaviors but also a touching, and very real love letter. That said, the characters reflect many of my American friends and relatives so anyone can like this show - I just think Swedophiles will love it.

Series that made me laugh, feel empathy, see the reality of life as uncomfortable as it can be at times, contemplate why we do the things we do and the human condition. The lead Vilhelm is adorable and so lovely, he makes the show so enjoyable and will fall in love with his character.
