The greatest movie ever made..!

Lack of good storyline.

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

The film Livvakterna is probably the worst film i have ever seen. The reasons for this are as follows... When the film was released in Sweden, it was accompanied by a large-scale marketing campaign, suggesting that it was a must see. Sadly a lot of swedes went and saw it and actually liked it! The film itself had a big budget in Swedish standards, however it does not help the film at all! First of all, the plot is very lame and unrealistic and so is the acting. Especially from the actors portraying the so called "livvakterna". The scene when we are told the motivation for alexandra rappaports character, is one of the worst of its kind and feels totally uncalled for. Obviously something went wrong with the cinematography in this film, colors are to bright and looks like a commercial for cleaning products made in Germany. Never say you haven't been warned, this movie makes me nauseous!

This movie is the second of a trilogy. It's about Johan Falk a Swedish police officer. His friend gets caught in a situation with organized crime takin' over companies. And Johan comes to the rescue. This is a high speed action movie from beginning to end. And you won't be disappointed by it. The other movies are "Noll Tollerans"(Zero tolerance) and "Tredje vågen" (the Third wave).

Excellent thriller with great acting. As somebody already pointed out, there isn't very much of the Hollywood stereotype about the movie. With this I mean explosion, after explosions which are so big that they can't possible be. Sweden aren't exactly known for their big action/thriller movies, but this one will maybe open some eyes for those who don't know that Sweden are a bit more than Strindberg, Nobel and polar bears. Do they have polar bears in Sweden,? No. But according to a essay done in the US, more than 50% of the students thought so.The movie has beautiful scenery, and the tension keeps you at your toes, though it hasn't anything really new about it. Does show though that Sweden can produce thrillers, and not only dramas, which may be nominated for an Oscar...

Part of writing a manuscript is about creating realistic dialogue. In Livvakterna this is handled with a new, daring exercise: Let the star meet all questions with silence. Somehow though, you could consider it realistic. I mean, after all the star is a psycho cop who don't attend former girlfriends funerals, who loves police work more than family life, who quits police work by just sending a mail and have more guts fighting lawyers than criminals. He loses himself in a bodyguards vs bodyguards drama and move into the woods. There will not be another sequel to Noll Tolerans-Livvakterna. Therefore I'm thankful and gave it an 8.
