stuart-12777 Having watched a lot of Scandinavian drama I was impressed by this under rated piece of gritty film making. I do not agree with some other reviews here that this second part is underwhelming, Although it is set in the world of crime I found myself becoming attached to certain characters and being deeply moved at times by the plot lines and accompanying music. Well worth watching.

wolw The good news is that most English speaking haven't read the books, which are extremely good, I've re read them more than five times. And here lies the problem..... Since I've read the books I know the plot, which somehow only pops up here and there in the movie making you sit and ask WTF are they doing that for ? This movie is a follow up on the first book/movie and have almost nothing to do with the second book. This review goes for the first movie as well. Worth watching (goes for both movies) if you haven't read the books, stay away from them if you did (goes for both movies), it will only make you confused and angry.Buy the books instead!

David Eastman This little crime genre film rolls along pretty nicely, because it mixes different types of criminals (the weak minded or the desperate) and underlines the strange role that Sweden plays for immigrants.The one thing I always remember about Sweden is that all immigrants hate the Swedes. This story mixes in Arabs, Serbs and even a Mexican. So the crime communities just get on with the job - and indeed Sweden itself is just a back drop here.I didn't see the first film, but the different characters obviously knew each other, but this is only relevant later on. All of them meet some type of nexus because of something going wrong, and have to resort to more crime. Gritty without being unpalatable, we see that crime rarely pays and there is, of course, no easy money.

sanwik This was one of the movies I was looking forward to see this year. (That said, I didn't have high expectations, I was only looking forward to see it)Mostly I was curious of how they would build things up after a so well-written and trustworthy predecessor. I was a bit disappointed as the movie turned out to be like most movies in the genre. The movie is worth watching, but compared to Snabba Cash /Easy money it's not a worthy followup.Easy Money was based on a book by a writer who has got direct contact with people involved in this kind of criminal activities, which made it trustworthy, down to earth but still exciting in a Swedish environment.Easy Money 2 however, is loosely based on the trilogy of these books, which makes the movie lack of facts, reliability and makes it "just another movie" in the genre.The actors do play their part in this movie, the screenplay is however not that good, which makes the overall experience worse.Give it a shot, and see for yourself, but try to see it as just a movie that have the same characters as another movie, don't watch it if you're looking for a good sequel.
