A particularly good advertisement for the vasaloppet as it couldve been, barfing blueberry toddy and defecating in your skisuit in the pursuit of the finishline does not tease the average person, like me the grumpy old man, that have actually considered this race as the test of manhood, still havent tried due to lack of snow to practice on here in southwestern coastal norway, but its in there somewhere...its a comedydrama, with an undertone of wornout relationships, where the egotrip is most important and revelation of new soulmates turns up like knots on a string.its very generic sweedish humour, the caracters are so medelswenson as could be, the whole soup hasnt got much surprise, and the loopholes in the story feels dragged and not so funny. Productionwise the editing couldve made more sense, the cast is not on the top, and the actual finish line of the vasalopp close down after 8 hours of racing.But its a try, some might feel the inspiration to try the next race first sunday in march 2023...that is... if there are any snow ...
