Viewing Notes
It may have been a post on Cinematical that prompted me to drop Astropia (I really hate the US title) into my Netflix queue. Possibly the geekiest & goofiest Icelandic film I’ve seen. Okay, the only Icelandic film I’ve seen. Truly a fun yet odd film from Iceland rife with geek pop culture (think Star Wars meets Lord of the Rings meets The Matrix in a crime comedy). As the highest grossing film in Iceland in 2007, this is a thoroughly entertaining watch.
