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
... View MoreThis movie is for people who like to laugh at drug use and abuse, pornography, profanity, and violence. It does portray drug use in a rather conservative way, that is: dangerous fun that will get you into trouble. On the other hand, its manic accelerated humor might actually make it look like this advice against drugs is not to be taken too seriously.The story starts with a brother coming back to his hometown to look for his little sister. He soon discovers that while he was away in the big city, something went weird back home. His sister is missing and no one seems to know or care about it. His crazy friends are even crazier now, and he quickly finds out there's some strange stuff going on. The quick twists and turns make this movie quite funny and the music adds up to the ironies and just plain insanity of it all.In short: A mad hillbilly Swedish comedy. Good show!
... View MoreI dont know a shred of Swedish but it turns out one doesnt need to know it to enjoy the movie. Although the plot got completely clear to me after the reviews I read here, but who cares as long the movie is funny (really funny, I mean) and all the scenes live out.All the actors did a great job, (I cant comment on dialogues :-( but songs from Polsa were hilarious and so was the police officer.There is pornography and drugs involved, but to make the scenes more abruptly funny, For ex, when Polsa is introduced first. What I did found out when I watched the movie was that Sussie was murdered and who killed her was revealed in the end. Lot of funny incidents in between. I will buy this movie's DVD.
... View MoreThere 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.
