damon albarn and einar örn (ex-sugarcube member) did the soundtrack. gus gus didn't have anything to do it far as i know. i watched this film for the second time about 2 days ago. It's pretty good

amazon reviews for Remote Control:
"Óskar Jónasson has created a comical masterpiece. Remote control gets funnier every time I watch it and is already a cult item in Iceland. I dare and double dare everyone to see it, at least three times!"
"When I was living in Iceland, I watched this movie all the time! It is the best Icelandic movie I have ever seen! "

just saw 101 - excellent movie, i havent had a laugh like this in a long time...and i thought my life's complicated :)
full of hilarious monologues and dialogues... i like the one where hlynur is asking himself of what will baby be like with him being his father living with him as his brother, his mom being babys father and his moms lover being babys mother - pretty complicated hehehe, but when you see it you get the picture...
i'll definitely be getting this film!

i laughed so hard at the scene where he took his mother's lover out to get drunk and hlynur's x-girlfriend asked who he was with
the conversation went something like this:
"who is she?"
"oh, uhm she's just a...friend of my mother"
"a friend of your mother? You took your friend's mother out to get drunk? What the hell is a matter with you!??"
hehehe :D

i have to visit iceland someday!
does reykjavik look much alike in this movie? or were all the outdoor scenes shot on the most unusual places?

it's been said that this movie has a kind of international feel to it. the scenes are mostly shot in the midtown, so it's not really a good overview of the whole reykjavÃk i think

yeah, that spanish actress (i think her name is victoria abril) is pretty good-i like her a lot from almodovar's films...actually the whole film has a very almodovarish touch to it
internatioanl feel to it?-perhaps of the flamengo and some english language...

i bought soundtrack yesterday and i really like it very nice chilled music, some house beats, some noise stuff (almost merzbow like only this ones have beats), and some piano-electronica combo
one of my favourite soundtracks for sure
