User Reviews

Not my favorite, but still a good movie

I liked this movie, it was not a wow-movie but I think that it was the best Swedish relationship movie since "Fucking Åmål".

I saw it on the cinema with four of my friends and they all liked it even better than I did.

So I don't agree with the previous reviewer that it is a crappy movie, but I agree that the plot is a bit predictive.

The movie is about Sandor who is tired of his life as an uncool guy who has never has sex, been drunk, been to a party or even kissed a girl. He lives with his strict parents. And Ida who is tired of living her life as a cool chick with her shallow friends and her mentally ill mother. She is drunk every weekend, has frequently one-night stands, gets bad grades and takes drugs.

They share their misery in a chat room over the net and try to help each other. They are starting a close friendship.
