Lazy chic
1 April 2002
This is about the wild unemployed life in Iceland, where the main character takes absolutely none responsibility towards anything. Not towards his mistress, not towards his (in many ways perverted) relation to his mother and absolutely not towards his life. Then the beautiful bi-sexual Spanish woman Lola enters. Life is shaken and the main character even begins to feel some responsibility in the end.

But this is too clever, too laid back, too ironic, too sarcastic. It's too much of "Anarchy chic" here and the film doesn't take stand for anything, which maybe is what the director wants. Anyhow, there is a kind of morality also in that kind of view.

Entertaining, oh yes, but we are not really surprised, not even about the ending. We have seen these people before.
