Kill Buljo (2009)

Too much of everything

How sad is this?

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.

It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

A Norwegian parody of Kill Bill that is hilarious and has just the right mix of originality and parody. It has constant jokes and very fun characters. The characters (Mainly the protagonist and antagonist) are well developed and pretty much every scene they're in is guaranteed to be funny. With a budget of about 900€ this is quite a well made movie, considering that the acting is good, the effects in fights are either good or the cheap ones are played of quite funny, the only indicator of this being a low-budget production is the lack of good customs and sets, however as I said before, it's played of quite funny. I also strongly recommend watching the subbed version, in the English Dubbed one many of the jokes are changed. The only problem I have with this movie is that they could have ended it better, but considering the amount of laughter I had before it's a minor mistake.P.s.: In the subbed version the subtitles said corn dog, while you can clearly hear the character say kebab, anyone has an idea why?

The Plot.Jompa Tormann and his guests and family are brutally gunned down during an engagement party. Sami- and women-hating police officer Sid Wisløff is put on the case. Together with his colleague Unni Formen and Sami guide Peggy Mathilassi, Wisløff tries to find the guilty party, but Jompa Tormann survived and he wants revenge!Satire on Kill Bill made for no money in Norway. It works! It's sort of like those wacky Airplane movies, or more recently, Scary Movie, but a different genre.At times it hearkens back to very early Woody Allen (Take the Money and Run, Bananas) with surreal kooky set ups and deliveries.At first I thought the good reviews were set up by people who worked on the film, but I have to say, it's funny. I liked it.

I am from the town that this movie was made in, and I have seen and talked to the director and the actors on several occasions.I can see that it may be hard for folks that aren't from Norway to get the humor of the film, hell even the people who live in the southern Norway have a difficult time getting it all... So with that said, this movie is maybe not for everyone. It's not meant to be just a parody of Tarantino's "Kill Bill" movies, this film uses lots and lots of local humor which to other viewers may seem very lame.So I can understand why this movie have got a bad rating here, but if we all came from northern Norway this movie would have 10 Stars :)

since i'm from Norway, i got to give this movie a "ten". not because i'm Norwegian but because this is a award winning movie. consider the budget these guys had to work with, it's the best parody ever made from this nation. and the comments in this movie are typical north Norwegian humor witch is a very Norwegian and almost a native thing. i salute these guys and hope Norwegian culture will be taken well in other countries as well. the city of Alta made this happened and it's the best from Norwegian humor. funny and good. i only hope they get to write the English subs themselves because then it get the way it should be and the points will be correct. enjoy
