As an avid fan of the series, I was thrilled to see a movie with the beloved characters back in the US in 2023. This was a perfect way to give fans some closure to the series, answer lots of questions, and let people know how things ended. I thought the movie had lots of twists and turns and was very well written, it had a lot to cram into a little over an hour and a half so we didn't get to see much of some of our favorite characters but this was better than no ending to their story. This movie needed to be made if they were not going to do another season of the series. I would love to see another movie sequel to see what happened next! I suspect that like most humans, Lisa got jealous of Elin, she thought she was over Patrik and wanted him to start over with someone new as long as it wasn't the woman he cheated on her with. It sets up the whole stage for this new trajectory to unfold. Lisa is going to start developing feelings for Patrik again because someone else likes him. When he was controlling, or sullen, or nitpicking her she felt self conscious for being an air head, inconsiderate, or a liar - all of which her character is and which is why they were like oil and water, they were only good when they were an emulsion but as soon as they separated they had a hard time getting blended again. They have to be shaken up vigorously to blend. I think they have achieved that all throughout this movie. Laughed out loud too and a few scenes! I mean full volume LOL!
