Morgan Pålsson - Världsreporter
Director: Fredrik Boklund
Cast: Anders Jansson, Johan Wester, Camilla Frey, Karim Rashed med flera
Plot outline: After an embarassing incident, reporter Morgan Pålsson and his cameraman are sent to a backwater African country called Matobo. A sudden coup d'état by an assumed-dead terrorist suddenly puts Matobo in the center of attention, and Morgan and Robert have to compete with the other reporters for the ultimate scoop.
Hilariously funny at times, and painfully embarassing at others, Morgan Pålsson - Världsreporter still remains one of the few enjoyable Swedish movies I have seen. Perhaps I would have liked it even more if my expectations hadn't been so high from his performances in "HippHipp!". On the other hand I wouldn't have known the character then, and he is half the reason this is funny. The other half is the (not so subtle) parody of corresponding reporters, and more specifically Åsne Seierstad (or Åse Seierland). I do think this is worth seeing, even though Morgan's characterisation is a bit over the top at times.
