The directing (by Hasse Alfredson) and the cinematography (by Rolf Lindström and Jörgen Persson) are excellent. During the whole movie the audience can hear the bittersweet tones of Verdi's Requiem. Not also the actors makes this movie to a masterpiece. Maria Johansson is brilliant as the lame girl.

The simple-minded murderer expertly crafted a simplistic storyline of horrific wealthy businessmen against an honest feeble-minded Sven was a harrowing experience. Stellan Skarsgård's magnificent bittersweet performances brung a purity to the oppression the character is forced to suffer.

This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth. A little Sling Blade, a little Walker, a little doomed romance, a lot "angels with revolver codpieces leading a harelipped Stellan Skarsgård on a mission of righteous, doomed vengeance."
