Reviews
Absolutely the worst movie.
The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
Based on The Divine Comedy by Dante Alighieri this movie deals with the problem of quitting smoking. It is a whimsical, not at all realistic story divided into parts (Inferno, Purgatory, Paradise). Typical of the humor of Swedish movie makers Hans Alfredsson and Tage Danielsson. A nice movie to get your mood up on a dull day.
Mannen som slutade röka (The man who stopped smoking).This film is about the changes you go through when trying to get rid of an addiction. Ingenious Gösta Ekman, who plays Dante Alighieri, will make you laugh in ways you didn't think was possible. The film is packed with hilarious scenes. In one passage Dante is in such a bad shape his hand tries to take the initiative, and he has to fight his hand to prevent it from grabbing a package of cigarettes. The result is a totally wrecked kitchen. No matter what you think about smoking, this is 110% FUN for everyone who sees it. Unlike some other Tage Danielsson films, such as Picassos äventyr, you do not have to be Swedish to get it.Definitely one of the ten best comedies ever!GRADE A+
