Everyone involved in this movie deserves an Oscar

Rating: 10/10 (15 June 2008)

Saw it and totally loved it!
Never really thought much of Colin Farrell before, but man he was great in this movie. This suited him very well. Mr Gleason was as always excellent and me and my gf got to sympathize with both these characters. As this is an European movie we knew something would happen and it wouldn't have a happy ending where you get saluted in the end, but this makes the movie all the more real.
It has brilliant humor and i hope the Americans can take it, (seen a few on here who cant tho) as its not how Europeans see them, its just the huge generalization that goes on about Americans as there are generalizations about ppl from any country. Its not much to cry about i feel. Every time i see something being said about Sweden or Swedish ppl in movies good or bad i just think its rather funny.
The profanity and blood, yes its some of that, but if you cant take that you should stick to watching Lindsay Lohan or Matthew Mccouaughey movies.
Many has made Tarrantino parallels to this movie and to be honest it didn't strike me at all when i watched the movie,sure Tarrantino has made good dialouges in certain movies but these days he seems to squeeze in so much talking that its just chit chat. You can easily go to the bathroom when nature calls or get snacks during his dialouges without missing anything and in this movie you simply cant.
Loved this one from the start to the end. At times it was super funny, espc that time in the park when Gleason was gonna finish of Farrell at the same time it was intriguing and full of excitement.
I truly hope this movie gets its recognition, cause it deserves that. And in all seriousness, this is a film, one shouldn't take so seriously on the jokes that might offend but laugh at it instead. For me tho the most fun parts were the really silly ones, not the ones that might been offending.
