Very Cool!!!
Excellent, Without a doubt!!
This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.
Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
To all appearances a hippie misplaced in time, Sara (Amanda Ooms) arrives in Oslo from Karachi bearing a suitcase full of heroin and is promptly picked up by the police. In order for the authorities to find out the real reason for her having the suitcase, she is hidden away at a policeman's vacation home. She is a really odd, jittery person, prone to teasing her policeman guard sexually by doing such things as painting her nude body and parading before him. The beleaguered cop manages (barely) to resist her blandishments and is able to prevent her from harming herself. Meanwhile, the mystery of the missing suitcase begins to have interesting consequences, leading to a final shootout between the police and the bad guys.
I rented this movie in my local library and saw it last night. I never expected it to be good, but I was (almost) shocked by who bad it was. The plot was bad, the acting was without talent, the directing was on a Steven Segal level, the editing was quit possible the worst ever, the script could have been written better by a monkey with a pen up his ass and with out saying to much I can say that the ending makes Plantes of the Apes (new) and Jaws 4 look like The Godfather. Sure all this is standard for a Norweigian 80's movie, but still. It was as if you mixed The French Connection, The French Connection 2 and Madonna's acting skills together and the result is not good at all.
Karachi is an extremely bad movie. This is must an example for most movie-makers how not to make a movie. Everything is wrong here: Actors, plot, effects, sound, colors etc. Even those actors who are considered as good ones becomes bad in this one. The movie is also very dull and confusing.
