Zingo (1998)
9/10
Probably one of the most underrated swedish movies ever!
2 April 2004
Well... First time i saw the swedish comedy Zingo I loved it, it was so goddamn funny from start to end, that I even loved it the second time I saw it, and the third and the fourth...

Mostly every actor is playing good in this movie, especially Tommy Andersson, for his role as "Jocke", and of course, Thomas Hellberg as "Ken Karlsson".

The movie is about a young, wild and confused man called Zingo(also well-played by Björn Kjellman), who takes to much drugs but dreams about having a life as a great father in a typical Swedish stereotype family.

But his girlfriend, Baby(Helena af Sandeberg) does not want to change their lives...

One day, Zingo meets his old pal Mos, and then Zingo gets and idea of making a brand new porno movie.

Why the movie is so very funny, is because all the different kinds of people, and situations..

I still can't understand why everyone seemed to hate this movie... I still think that this is one of the funniest Swedish movies ever made.

Donnie Brasco (1997)
8/10
Good cars, good clothes, good music...
6 February 2004
While Johnny and Al are one of my all-time favourite actors, I was up to see this movie. It was just what I expected, an interesting story about an secret FBI agent(Johnny Depp) that was living a so called "double-life", as a though and cruel gangster with Benny(Al Pacino) and as a family father in a depressive relationship with his wife. Anyway, this movie got many interesting details that makes me like this movie more. First of all, the fantastic cars that they use in the movie! I mean, who does'nt like a 78' Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham? I liked it very much that they used almost one type of cars; the cadillacs(except for the terrific Mercedes-Benz and some other vehicles)... And then we got Al Pacinos clothes... Man, they´re really something... And the third point is the funny music. Comparing classical music with such songs like "Disco inferno"(The Trammps) and "One way or another"(Blondie) is a funny thing that makes the hole movie better.



Finally, I think that all the actors are doing a great job, especially Al Pacino, Johnny Depp and Michael Madsen.

8/10
