This is worth a shot., 1 September 2007
7/10
Author: Jimmy Nilsson from Sweden

With huge underestimations due to massive bad critics during theater openings I started to watch this DVD...alone. Since other reviewers seems to lean on when crowd in screening rooms laughs at bad performance or even leaves I give you my 100% personal opinion.

There are flaws, there are bad acting. Likely to be found in any movie if you just look hard enough. For example I guess we have to wait for a somewhat good/realistic Swedish shootout.

Nevertheless, this slow paced story is so far away you can get from Beck police-movies or other Swedish youth criminal movies. Finally!

There is no Hollywood in Sweden but that doesn't mean there cannot be created beautiful sagas, intricate stories and complex love relationship.

Add astonishing music and delicate picture and you have "Gangster".

I admit, people that only can handle 1 time line and 1 relationship/shot should stay away or bring a guide. Because if the pace of the movie is slow the pace and depths in all relationships turn fast. Keep up!

Now for all of you that didn't catch all characters there are rumored to be a sequel (time before Gangster) written for this. Hopefully it hits production...now go buy the DVD!

Sincerely Yours
