Weekend

I can only guess that director Gustavson thought he was making some sort of masterpiece for the youths of today. But what he ended up with was this loud, too stupid for words, 90 minute music video! A messy rehash of every turkey in norwegian cinema with echoes of would-you-believe THE SHINING! The female lead character "TK" (Camilla Strøm Henriksen) shouts and shouts and shouts through the entire movie, maybe because that's the only way possible for us to hear her lines over Randall Meyers' NOISY soundtrack. When it comes to clichès they have managed to throw in everything but the kitchen sink in portraying the local farmers and fishermen in the movie. This is the first picture in years to actually give me a real headache, and just for that director Gustavson should find himself a corner to go stand in.
