Offbeat comedy with a serious edge
28 August 2008
Warning: Spoilers
Man who is the latest husband of a much married woman has to make do when she invites all her previous husbands, their new wives and families, plus some friends, all for Christmas. Things get complicated when his wife announces that she's pregnant... something that the husband makes him suspect that he isn't the father because he's had a vasectomy. Weird comedy drama from Sweden that made me unsure of what I was watching. Was I suppose to laugh? Was it suppose to be more serious then it is? The uncertainty was a little off putting. Its good but...I don't know. Maybe seeing this just before the end of summer or seeing it after three other fair films... or seeing it on an import Chinese VCD with English subtitles,I don't know, I'm going to try this again if for no other reason the line "Die you f-ing Santa" is too great a line in context(delivered before Santa gets his butt kicked) not to force a second viewing of the film that contains it.Maybe closer to Christmas
