Freddy Got Fingered (2001)

Boring boring chocolate... I mean boring!

[2/10 · 17 December 2008]

I watched this movie several years after it's release after I had heard the name come up on several occasions in friends discussions. I generally like Tom Green and the first bit of the movie I did enjoy. But it just never got anywhere. After a while the whole thing just dragged on in ways I never thought possible and after 30 minutes I just couldn't stand it anymore and stopped watching and did something different that was more entertaining like staring into the wall, or discuss serious business on the intertubes.

It's not supposed to be a "real" movie I suppose, but I wouldn't have minded a little bit of something to want me to see where it was going. It's like with the Borat and Mr Bean movies. They work in short skits and sketches. But a full length movie is just more than I can bare.

Varg (2008)

More thrilling than a thriller.

I watched this movie, expecting it to be a bit droning. And while it's not a fast action movie by any means, I felt so strongly for the main characters in the movie, that every second of the tough scenes were very hard to endure. Hence my summary, "more thrilling than a thriller".

It's a very good movie in my opinion. Showing two sides of a modern Swedish conflict.

Stormare was of course excellent in his role. But a lot of kudos to Robin Lundberg who played Nejla, showing off a young man who finds himself in deeper water than he can handle. As previously stated by other comments, the movie is very beautiful, and you can almost smell the cold air from the snowy mountains. I don't quite know how to formulate this movie, other than I loved every second of it.
