Gösta (2019– )
6/10
Don't really know
9 July 2019
After 6 episodes in.

Its well made. Funny and interesting characters. But i feel that something is missing.

In the start of the series, youre interested to follow the main character Gösta's submissiveness. Then its goes over to become abit much repetitive and you start to look for something else. Then you start to suffer for Gösta, alot. This reminds me of one of the main character in Moodyssons earlier titles, "Together" (2002). Where the character Göran, finds himself in a similar situation like Gösta. Almost same name there. Coincidence, i think not?

If this series is about an exploration on why Gösta is too nice to people. Then it certainly makes its deal. Otherwise i understand why people misunderstands this show.

You have to see Moodyssons other films in order to understand this piece.

Swoon (2019)
4/10
Flat, boring and a failed script
14 February 2019
My expectations were high when i heard that the famous swedish comedian Robert Gustafsson were to starr as a theme park nazi sympathiser, in a 1940 of Stockholm. Alongside the love story of a romeo and julia conflict. 10 minutes after the film started, i wanted to leave the cinema.

Sure you can say alot of positive things about the SFX, the costumes and sound effects. Nothing was wrong with the technical. It felt like it was all studio produced in hollywood. But mix that with shallow characters, a story that needs atleast 10 more tryout drafts. Did they have any continuity checkup on the storyline at all?

This film could have been great. But it falls to the ground in the first 10minutes, and continues in the same phase. 4 stars out of 10 for the effort and some nice set design
