Low-key Swedish Comedy.

Starting small, with the unauthorised swap of a car engine, a group of friends build up a business reallocating military resources to local villagers. The business grows, as does the number of people involved and the level of audacity.A very large cast sometimes left me trying to work out who was who, and some of the acting left me unclear of characters' motives. A couple of scenes implied things had happened that we had not seen - either poor continuity or budget shortcuts - but the story is a happy romp.A couple of questions unresolved for me involved a character having male pin-ups and the surname Rosencrantz - I wasn't sure if he was intended to be gay or Jewish, or whether either was supposed to be relevant to the plot. To me, neither made a difference to the plot but were a slight distraction as I wondered why the hints were there.The climax builds nicely, although again some weak editing. The scale of the final project is breathtaking, reminiscent of Milo Minderbinder in Catch-22, and suggests where most of the budget went.The ending might disappoint some, but give others a guilty giggle. For me it changed the overall tone, although it was certainly no surprise.
