Freaktana A Major Disappointment

ChicDragon It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.

Staci Frederick Blistering performances.

pontifikator This is a punk movie directed by Ulf Malmros. It starts at the end and loops around in fits and starts till you get all the details filled in.Starring Tuva Novotny in the title roll and Jonas Rimeika as her brother Erik, this Swedish film takes place in a small town where the movie theater shows films that have already come out on VHS. Erik's descriptions of small-town life are funny because they're all true.I won't discuss the plot because it gives things away. But the pleasure in this movie is in the details. The soundtrack reminds me of "Repo Man," and the details of hick town life ring absolutely true. It's basically a mash-up of "Repo Man" where things happen to punk background music and generic heroin -- er, beer -- and "Pulp Fiction" where things happen out of sequence, and "Flanders" (directed by Bruno Dumont) where things happen in a really depressing corner of the world. But "Slim Susie" is funny. I just sat there laughing as Erik told his disjointed story, waiting as all the pieces fell gradually into place.

arun-venmelil Hi,The movie slim Susie is very interesting.when Erik (Jonas Rimeika) comes home from Stockholm in search of his little sister Susie, he finds everything changed in him home town(it means mind of his friends and other known people).Nobody didn't help him to find his sister they used to tell him different stories.But he came to know his sister became a gangster.This is the first time i am watching a Swedish movie.I like the acting Jonas and Tuva.A far cry from the Sweden of Ingmar Bergman, SLIM SUSIE (SMALA SUSSIE) presents a small town world of drugs, crime, and pornography. Erik (Jonas Rimeika) returns to his home town of Bruket after living in Stockholm. He has come to investigate the disappearance of his sister Susie, a former beauty queen whom he is quite fond of. But as he begins to dig into the underbelly of the city, he discovers a world of crime and seedy affairs, and is shocked to discover that his cute little sister is involved in this sordid underworld. SLIM SUSIE is a black comedy that reverses the common "corruption in the big city" theme by looking at the criminal elements in a small town. regards Arun

stensson There have for the last decade been quite a lot of Swedish films about the Swedish world outside Stockholm. The stockholmers have had a lot to laugh about. Little is known here about how the smalltown Swedish inhabitants take that.But "Smala Sussie" ("Slim Sussie" in English) is funny in more ways than being a hillbilly comedy. The acting by young Björn Starrin, Jonas Rimeika and Tuva Novotny is great. There might be a place for a discussion whether murder and using drugs really is a funny subject. Here it is so however, although everything is far from the Tarantino treatment.But you have to be Swedish to appreciate this. Or maybe Scandinavian.

Josefin Personally, I'm not very fond of Swedish movies because of the bad acting and stiff dialogue, but Smala Sussie really did it. It was witty, original (but still had some similarities to the Swedish movie kopps), and very well made.It's pure Swedish entertainment in a small farmervillage, where Sussie has disappeared. Her brother, who lives in Stockholm, hitchhikes to Värmland, where she lives to find his sister. during this "hunt", he finds out a lot of weird things about his childhood friends and that "Smala(Slim) Sussie" isn't the innocent obedient "miss motor-girl" she used to be.I think the whole film is pure entertainment with a bit of Swedish maffia and reality action. All of the movie characters are very well played, and I am really satisfied with the dialogues.I really recommend it.Görbra!!"Pölsa has no fear, cause he's got a lot of beer"
