Featured review
Yes, this movie is a collection of puns with some extended stories that are not wovren into each other. So what? Did you expect an artistic miracle? I most certainly did not. In my opinion this move can hold its ground among such Finnish comedy 'classics' as "Onks Viljoo näkynyt?".
Typical for this kind of comedies is that the main strory is almost inexistant. The comedy is composed of stereotypic characters interacting with each other and repeating their one-liners we expect to hear. They have no depth (neither are they supposed to), but they succeed provoke a couple of laughs.
Watch this while drunk, or just to enjoy nostalgic 1980's interiors.
