I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

Crappy film

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.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

It may irritate Finnish viewers by its un-Finnishness, perhaps it was intended by the creators. I guess they were trying to appeal to American and wider Europe and, in my view, they succeeded. This movie may particularly appeal by its unamerican flavour to the audiences used to American movies. The father of the boys comes across as quite a menacing character who at the end gets what he deserves. A bit simple but don't expect any depth from this movie. It is though based on a true story doesn't make an impression to be "real" It is just pure entertainment. Not each of the boys is equally well developed as a character but the main the youngest one, who has a separate story line, falling in love, is OK.

I rarely watch any Finnish fiction movies, but since it was on TV and since I knew the general plot somewhat and that it contained eye candy and some insight into a neighboring country's microcosm of culture and way of life, I thought I had to stay and see it (unlike Aki Kaurismäki's "The Man Without A Past", which felt queasy for some reason; granted, I had only seen a few scenes of that.).As I try to watch most everything with an open mind, it is difficult to claim feeling surprised. I found the film to be different and enjoyable and "Pahat pojat" greatly upped the ante in the genre in a region of countries (Finland, Nordic countries and then some other ones nearby) it was first released in.The viewer gets to see most of the trappings of Finnish life, with numerous contrasts and then some: Many Finns who are everything that is good in them and _even more_ -- versus Loiri's portrayal of Jouko Takkunen, who in one person most despicably and artfully embodies everything that is bad in some Finns. Oh, but the character of the hypocritical "papi" Takkunen is not alone in this, as there are also others who are morally and ethically corrupt, self-righteous and in a position of power. In opposition to that, there are most good-natured, well-wishing, moral and ethical people who prevail against all odds and despite all difficulties.Some of the good parts: good acting (a great and most despicable villain), then lots of eye candy, plenty of fun and witticisms and a fitting ending. I only wish for the casket to have been the cheapest model available.Kudos go to everyone who played the Takkunen family and Risto Tuorila (the benevolent police constable).

As I'm having a week of Finnish movies, I also watched this one. And I must say it was a way better than I expected (and I did expect a decent movie), actually it's the best Finnish movie I've seen on this special week of mine.With all its well played and thus believable characters and their dialogs, an above average story, great camera work and the lack of stamps and cheap one-liners it surely is a great film experience. I totally enjoyed the beginning and other parts concerning the father - though those scenes with their garbled filming and darker tones, background voices and echoes were more suitable for a horror movie and they weren't well balanced with the rest of it.The usage of Finnish-only music was a good call as well.I totally recommend it.

Gosh how this is one of those films that have made me load negative prejudices in my mind and then after seeing it, I start lauging to those thoughts because they were so wrong. This movie was an utter pleasent suprise. Rarely there are such great Finnish movies as Pahat Pojat. I was so suprised. The actors were natural, fun and sympatic. Even Jasper Pääkkönen who I have never liked. I´ve changed my thoughts about him now. The women actresses weren´t so good but that didn´t matter as the boys did so good. And Vesa-Matti Loiri! Gosh, how horrible he was made. He did a fantastic job.What I really liked in this movie was that it is so colourful. It has action, great dialogue, romance and the best thing: humor. I laughed every five minutes! It also gets very touching at times too. That´s good for an "explosition movie". Pahat Pojat is for young people. It is rough and action packed, also light, warm and funny. See it!
