Easy to like

Rating: 9/10 (28 January 2000)

It was really very easy to like this film - in fact, it was impossible for me NOT to like it. Maybe the key is the phenomenon that is called "lagom" in Sweden. That word doesn't exist in any other language, but it means something like "just right". Not too much, not to little.
I felt very comfortable after watching this film. It didn't change my life, didn't start a revolution - it was just a very good film!
Actually, the end was a bit unexpected. It gave the film a romantic touch that otherwise wouldn't have been there. The only bad thing is that I found details in the story too improbable, and that was a disturbing moment in that type of film. It wouldn't have mattered in an action-filled story, but now it made me irritated, because it stole attention from the story!! Anyway that detail doesn't stop me from really recommending this film - its simply "just right"!
