Discovered a roadmovie–thanks to –that doesn't live up to its great first half, but you know what would fix it? More shenanigans. One of the members of the dysfunctional but lovable 🇸🇪 🇵🇹 family does hop on a from Malmö to Hamburg, but the writers really missed a trick by crossing from France to Portugal by car (seamlessly and thus with 0 conflict right where their plot stalls). Imagine the drama!

This is the second film I've seen recently where the drama quotient would have benefitted from more problems thrown at the characters, imo. The first one was Plus que jamais, in which searches for tickets from Bordeaux to Norway on Ecosia, but inexplicably the trip itself is brief and smooth as butter.

Ask and ye shall receive featuring irl European problems:
* not enough trains
* missed connections
* if your train breaks down in the afternoon you're stuck in Zany Belgium because NOT ENOUGH TRAINS
* 194 Euro Amsterdam to Paris ticket
* you have to look up tickets on some Dutch search engine called ZOEK

The train drama was a good excuse to get the (charismatic) protagonists stuck in Zany Belgium, well done.
