Flickan som lekte med elden. The Swedes have a thing for low quality detective stories. Lame stuff, but I like seeing the views, shots of Stockholm, the Volvos..
Well of course. Have you seen Män som hater kvinnor? The first of the three books? It was the one that was meant to be a movie and it was made really well. Due to its success the other two sequels were made but they were made really fast and at first they were meant to be shown on TV. But since the first movie got so many admittance in the theatres they released the second two and came out with extremely low quality.

Have you read the books?

he is his boyfriend as well, pedercina vlatko's boyfriend.
Jelaous, much?
Its really great war story, and the battles are INSANE, very tactical/strategic in every since, and incredibly gritty, a body is dropping dead every 2 secs. Its not the usual M.O of the winning side barely losing anyone, basically pyrrhic victories all around.
Indeed, it had a lot of substance and the strategy development and even politics, made me shocked to see it was a John Woo movie. Really good stuff.

Give me some more similar stuff, only not Hero or Crouching Tiger, saw those.

Nope, I came upon the movie by complete coincidence, no idea where the story came from.

Captain Corelli's Mandolin. Liked it. Much better than what it looks like. Liked the father most of all, but all the main actors did very well.

Weird, it's really based on the previous movie. Watch Män som hatar kvinnor. And Flickan som leker med elden does not finish there is still a third part.
