When local politicians aim to close a rural police station because its officers spend more time retrieving wandering farm animals than nabbing thieves, cops Jacob (Fares Fares) and Lasse (Göran Ragnerstam) instigate a phony crime wave to justify their station's existence. At first, the plan is a smashing success. But problems arise when another cop, hot-headed Benny (Torkel Petersson), who doesn't know about Jacob and Lasse's plot, begins to investigate the pseudo-crime spree.

Audience Member Laughed through the entire movie Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review nicolas b This is worth watching for the "daydream sequence shootout". Hilarious scene. The rest of the movie doesn't quite keep up, but is entertaining to watch. Swedish cinema has never let me down. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member inte så illa som vem som helst skulle förvänta Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member A Swedish comedy purportedly drawn in B-class American style with some funny moments and punch lines. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Audience Member helluva fun, happy movie. this bunch of bungling cops will have you in stitches.
