Watch The Wedding Photographer For Free

Redundant and unnecessary.

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Ulf Malmros has made one of my favorite Swedish films. Smala Sussie. This one didn't live up to it, but was very close. First of all, great cinematography. I love the shots that follows the actors all around the place. Second of all, great script. Malmros is a great writer and this movie has a lot of quotable lines, most of them made by Kjell Bergquist. Which brings me to the third great thing about this movie, great acting. Everyone is just wonderful in their parts and are very well-casted. Especially Bergquist and Björn Starrin are fantastic. I really hope Ulf Malmros keeps making these wonderful films and I highly recommend this film for everyone!

After watching Slim Susie (Smala Sussie) and A Summer Tale (Den bästa sommaren) Ulf Malmros became one of my favourite Swedish film-makers. His ability to tell a good story with perfect pace and add unique characters to it is something you rarely see in Swedish productions. While Slim Susie was kind of a sick all-out comedy, A Summer Tale was more of a romantic drama with comedy-influences. I would say that Bröllopsfotografen/The Wedding Photographer reminds me of both.Starting off in the small locality of Molkom, we get to follow the main character (Robin) in his regular day-life. The environment as well as the characters and the jokes here definitely feels a lot like taken from Slim Susie, hence I found myself laughing a lot. Robin then travels to Stockholm in order to become a professional photographer, and the best part of this movie is his first days there. The contrasts between the life in the locality and the life in the capital city of Stockholm illustrated by Malmros through Robin's character are pretty much brilliant, at least from a Swedish point of view.When Robin starts to adapt to his new way of living, the message that Malmros wants to send gets clear. Although at this point, when things turn into more of a romantic drama, the film loses its pace a bit. On the other hand, the transition of Robin, from a typical locality-guy to the wannabe big-city brat, processes a bit too fast. You don't really get an idea of what made him change like he does.All-in-all, this isn't a new Slim Susie, which in my opinion had a great plot and constant comedy in it. Apart from that though, it got what it takes to be a film worth seeing. The dialog is creative (and often funny of course), the setting is great and the cast do a very good job. I could simply feel Malmros presence throughout the movie, and that is good enough for me.
