Vodkaa, komisario Palmu (1969)
A clumsy nostalgia trip to old Helsinki
1 September 2016 - 3 out of 3 users found this review helpful.
If it were only for my nostalgia for the old Helsinki and a depiction of a time under tight regulations of the Finnish media, I would rate the movie as worth of 7 or 8 stars out of 10, but the acting and pacing is so clumsy, one cannot pass it. Joel Rinne is one of the few saving graces of the cast, as his interpretation of inspector Palmu is as timely as ever. The cinematography and editing is sometimes quite clumsy and character motivations slim. Also, the director wasn't quite up to the challenge at the time. The previous Palmu movies did a far better job at setting up the crime and depicting a logical, somewhat humorous journey to the reveal of the murderer.
