Too much of everything
... View MoreLet's be realistic.
... View MoreIn truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
... View MoreI cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.
... View MoreJust saw this movie a couple of hours ago, and damn! It's one of the funniest movies I've seen. It has it all, really twisted characters. Uggla as an psychiatrist is just hilarious. The violent and gory scenes are all well done and it's non stop action from start to end. This film is hard to find though. So if you might find it don't hesitate to watch it, you will be sorry if you don't. Imagine a film with Aliens, German terrorists, ninja turtles, robocop and some other carachters you will recognize from different movies and you have sex, lögner och videovåld. All in all a really entertaining movie and one of the best to come from Sweden. Enjoy
... View MoreThis was an enjoyable movie with lots of violence, and quite good effects for being an low-budget independent production.There is a lot of cameos too - mostly Swedish celebrities who were well-known in the eighties, and Brandon Lee of course (he has two short lines if i recall it correctly.)In English, the title of the movie would translate as "Sex, Lies, and Video Violence", which of course is inspired by the title of Soderberghs "Sex, Lies, and Videotape". At the time the movie was made, and before, there was a lot of debate in Sweden about "Video violence", that is, all the violence that could be seen on VHS videos, and how that would affect the youth, what measures should be taken to stop this,...
... View MoreDefinetly one of my favorites when it comes to splatter-filled humour, Richard Holm & co show that you don´t need a lot of money to create something wonderfully funny and violent. Spoofing a lot of films along the way, Mikael Beckman has to fight off the Clockwork Orange-gang, Frigga from "Thriller", the Alien-monster, a German terrorist from "Die Hard" and Robocop(superbly played by football expert Tony Johansson). And yes, it IS the genuine Brandon Lee in his last starring appearence.A very hard film to come by, but if you get the chance, don´t miss it!
... View MoreSex, Lögner och Videovåld is quite a movie. Yes, the plot is mostly about showing gory effects, but the only way you can actually dislike the movie, is if you take it seriously. Personally, I found it hilarious, and the cameos by a huge bunch of (mostly Swedish) celebrities, makes this a must-see. Besides, this is actually Brandon Lee's last movie, so any fan of his, should see this.
