      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.
