When local politicians aim to close a rural police station because its officers spend more time retrieving wandering farm animals than nabbing thieves, cops Jacob (Fares Fares) and Lasse (Göran Ragnerstam) instigate a phony crime wave to justify their station's existence. At first, the plan is a smashing success. But problems arise when another cop, hot-headed Benny (Torkel Petersson), who doesn't know about Jacob and Lasse's plot, begins to investigate the pseudo-crime spree.

Occasionally strays into areas we've seen covered in Supertroopers, but it's a far better and much more consistently funny film.

Rated: 7/10

This is worth watching for the "daydream sequence shootout". Hilarious scene. The rest of the movie doesn't quite keep up, but is entertaining to watch. Swedish cinema has never let me down.
