Somehow this movie was exactly what I expected. I mean like "hey there are lots of nude teens partying and doing stupid things and so on, but that just to show how thoughtless and short-sighted these people are". On the other hand.. the movie managed still to do exactly that. Which can be little confusing because you don´t know if you like the movie or not.

[in finnish]Ei nyt ehkä aivan täysillä onnistunut tavoittamaan, hyvältä kuulostava "tagline" ja nimi jäi vähän mietityttämään ainakin. Muuten ihan kohtuu eheä leffa, kai. Nikkilä sopi loistavasti rooliinsa, Volasen hahmoa vaivasi tietysti vahvasti omat Pasila/Ihmebantu-mielikuvat. Hähähää.

Third time when I watched this which can´t be a bad sign? At least for me because I don´t really like to watch same movies over and over again. Of course there are exceptions, and maybe The King´s Speech is one of them. Really good movie.

[in finnish]Sinänsä hauska ajatusleikki, mutta leffan idea kadotetaan tehokkaasti heti kohta alun jälkeen. Loppuaika sitten seurataankin miehen palloilua ja orastavan parisuhteen kehittymistä. Elikkä aivan "normaalia" elämää ja tavarataivaan kritiikki jää hämmentävänkin ohkaiseksi.

Another Finnish documentary in a row and I liked more this one. Touching collection of stories told by finnish men, honestly in sauna of course. But these stories remained little disconnected even that sauna trying to be common factor here. Still good documentary.

Some reason my expectations were quite low so this was a positive surprise after all. Movie has often described as a great visual experience but fortunately it was also more than that.

Interesting movie about Thor Heyerdal´s 101 day-long trip over Pacific ocean with his wood raft. Movie tells straightforwardly about trip which is just a good thing because the true trip is amazing enough.

"Dial M for Murder" my favorite Hitchcock movie so far.
