SteffeB's rating
I just watched the film in a small town in the southern of Sweden called Laholm and I must start this review by saying that I'm mighty impressed by this movie.
On my way in I cached a few words with a woman standing in line and I also tough I recognized a man in her company, but I could place him and later when they got up on "stage", to present the movie, it all came clear to me who they were. I had seen the man on TV doing an interview and if I just had tough of that earlier
But anyway, on to the review.
To begin somewhere, I will start with the Visuals. I think the camera placement in the scenes were OK and with good colors. Sometimes it could seem like it was getting a bit out of focus but I think it was intended to add a good feel to it. The special effects were nice and not to flashy.
Then we come to the audio part. Music was really nice and fitting. The audio were clear and the dialog felt real.
On to the story. It was an interesting story with a great beginning as well as ending.
The feel. The whole thing felt very real, not at all Swedish and not to "Hollywood". I have heard that the movie were somewhat comical and when I heard I taught something like "No, not another silly comedy", but now after I've seen the film I must say that it had some funny moments but they all felt real and not silly comedy as you see in a lot of movies these days (Maybe the talking dogs were a bit to silly, but it were kind of cool the first time). Vampire movies are often either action, splatter or vampires-are-good movies but this movie had a good blend of events that made it unreleasable in any of these categories. It didn't feel like a Horror movie, walking home alone at midnight in a small dark "village" after seeing the movie were no problem, although I cached a glimpse over my shoulder once in a wile just to make sure. Also the fact that the producers of the film were there and presented the whole thing is always a bonus.
The Rating I give this movie 7/10 no, because of some circumstances 8/10.
The Circumstances ^ I don't like to compare movies to other movies from the same country, but I must say that this were really nice, not just for being a Swedish movie. And then maybe some people think vampire movies should be all dark and fogy and sure these are great movies to, but they shouldn't be compared to this one. There were some few things that I didn't like but they really were few and I think you can overlook one or two things in a movie and still think it is great.
