Loose, sharp Swedish film talk.

The gist

Cinema Celsius treats film discussion as a conversation among people who have been talking for a long time. Episodes move from work, vacation, TV habits, sports, and stray jokes into reactions to movies like The Bodyguard, Fast & Furious 9, Tick, Tick... Boom!, and Marcel the Shell with Shoes On.

About Cinema Celsius

Cinema Celsius is a Swedish film and TV discussion show with the texture of friends settling back into a familiar routine. It rarely rushes straight to the review. Episodes often begin with small life updates, recording gaps, vacation planning, work rhythms, viewing habits, or a joke that takes longer than expected to land. That looseness is part of the shape. The panel may circle around what everyone has seen lately, compare podcast choices, remember older television rituals, or get sidetracked by sports before turning toward the featured film. Once there, the talk becomes more focused without becoming formal. The Bodyguard prompts 1990s atmosphere, Kevin Costner, Whitney Houston, and the kind of tagline-heavy movie packaging that now feels almost unreal. Fast & Furious 9 becomes a way to talk about absurd action, franchise frustration, and the difference between laughing with a film and being worn down by it. Tick, Tick... Boom! sits alongside reactions to House of Gucci, Lady Gaga, Adam Driver, pacing, style, and disappointment. Marcel the Shell with Shoes On opens into a broader stretch on adaptation, The Last of Us, character focus, and what television gains by leaving some gameplay material behind. The show also gives room to questions that are not only about taste, such as how Swedish police drama can shape a viewer's sense of real public life. Its judgments are clear, but they arrive through back-and-forth rather than grand statements. One person hedges. Another pushes. Someone remembers a detail from a different series. The result is criticism that feels social, specific, and slightly messy in a useful way. Cinema Celsius is strongest for listeners who want film talk that can be funny, skeptical, affectionate, and impatient within the same conversation.

Made for: For Swedish-speaking film and TV fans who enjoy relaxed panel chemistry, recent viewing catch-ups, and reviews that leave space for digressions. It especially suits listeners who prefer concrete reactions over formal criticism.

What sets it apart: Cinema Celsius keeps the casual texture around the criticism instead of sanding it away. The detours into work life, TV routines, Patreon picks, sports, and podcast habits make the reviews feel like part of an ongoing conversation.

In their own words
