    Gas, Inspector Palmu!

    ★★½

    A nice surprise.

    A was half expecting it to be boring, but it turned out to be very interesting indeed. Most of the time I couldn't even follow along all the details in the drama.

    A good watch.

    Breathless

    ★★½

    I think it's easy to accept the editing aftera while, yet I grow tired watching a psyco babling for a long hour.

    Perhaps in those days people didn't see the disorder but just a "charming guy" who always get's his way. Intriguing and different for sure, but no recipe for life...

    Eternal touches on the idea of "What if".

    When meeting Director Ulaa Salim, he told us that making the film took four-five years to create and had lots of elements from his own life.

    In my opinion the format and story had great potential yet only part of is was realized.

    A weak first part made it so that the later parts had to explain what you didn't get naturally from the first part. However I quickly forgot about some of the quirkiness from the first part somewhere in the middle of the movie.

    It will be interesting to see what Ulaa does in the future!

    Well done Finland!

    Great performance and beliveable characters.
    The film touches on many deep themes such as marriage, death, birth, war, gender roles and more.

    Just shy of three hours and yet the tempo and edits maintain ones interest even in a fast paced 2024.

    Gave me some "outlander" vibes!
