I was a little surprised by how much I liked this movie. Yes, it's predictable. Yes, it's a feel good film. At least if you aren't homophobic! So what?
I liked it. It was fun to see a slice of life in Sweden. I haven't the first clue if it's an accurate portrayal. I'm sure that like most movies it's probably exaggerated and over-sentimentalized. But it was sweet - a word that comes up consistently in the Amazon reviews for the film.
If you are lucky enough to have a significant other, a bowl of popcorn and a nothing-to-do Friday night, and you aren't a total cynic, enjoy!
I like the blog make-over!

I love your comments about this movie! It's so nice for once to see someone ENJOY a "predictable," "feel good," possibly "over-sentimentalized" movie, because sometimes movies like that are just really fun. So there, Ebert and Roeper!
