This is a typical Swedish summertime comedy - it has a starstruck cast, a simple plot, and jokes that range from cringeworthy to genuinely funny.

It's difficult not to enjoy the lighthearted tone of the movie or feel sorry for the characters, who set themselves into an awkward situation. In that sense, this film is like any other Swedish comedy these days.

There are way too few good jokes in this film, and that's mostly because this is another attempt at copying the successful concept of _Solsidan_. That approach doesn't work anymore.

:frowning2:

The plot barely moves forward and has very little to say. Everything here has been done before.

**David Hellenius** is David Hellenius in this film and the dozens of similar films he's done. He's always the awkward underdog, and it's becoming tiresome.

Despite its 90 minute runtime, the film feels dragged out. It doesn't offer any real twists other than the foreseeable ones. The ending is overly long.
