Review :

Probably my favorite Finnish film!

If you are not a Finn, you might not fully understand this great movie at first. But don't be alarmed, you will get it eventually! But if you've lost all your interests towards Finnish movies (Maybe seeing one too many Kaurismäki films... Heheh!), the cure for that is this extraordinary excellent movie! If I should recommend one Finnish movie, I'd choose this one.

A tragicomic story of two ex-cons and their wild life at their birth region up north. A story that you just know can't end too well once started. The plot is so well written that you don't wanna miss a single scene or line! And the actors do a superb job. Especially Edelmann's performance as Jussi Murikka (the crazier of the two petty crooks) is as good as acting simply can get.

I won't reveal anything more of the plot because I wouldn't want to spoil your fun if you ever get a chance to seeing the movie. BTW. The soundtrack is also great, but foreigner people might not appreciate it like I would. I think the music used in the movie adds that extra flavoring and supports the story by its behalf.

I totally recommend everyone -man, woman, child and adult- to seeing this wonderful movie. WARNING: Contains bizarre humor! Please don't take the movie too seriously and make hasty presumptions of Finns and the characteristics of our nature... Which is nonetheless peculiar enough! ;)
