‘Trouble’ Netflix’s Hilarious Remake of the Swedish Classic Strul
At the heart of Trouble is Conny, played by Filip Berg, a well-meaning but bumbling father who just wants to make his daughter, Julia, happy. Conny’s life takes a disastrous turn when a series of unfortunate events lead him to be mistaken for a murderer. His misfortune escalates from a playful daydream of piloting a plane in his beloved flight simulator to facing serious legal trouble when he ends up at the wrong place at the wrong time. With a wrongful conviction and an 18-year sentence hanging over his head, Conny’s life quickly spirals into absurdity.
The film captures the essence of a classic “wrong man” story with a unique comedic twist. As Conny grapples with the chaos of his new reality, viewers are treated to a delightful mix of humor and heart.
Trouble features an engaging ensemble cast, including:
- Eva Melander as Helena Malm, the detective on Conny’s case.
- Amy Deasismont as Diana Wilson, a junior officer who surprisingly shows interest in Conny’s plight.
- Måns Nathanaelson as Hasse, Conny’s not-so-helpful lawyer.
- Joakim Sällquist as Musse, a muscle-bound fellow prisoner who unwittingly helps Conny in his quest for freedom.
Their performances, particularly Deasismont’s portrayal of the quirky officer Diana, bring a lively charm to the film, adding layers of humor and warmth to the storyline.
