"Just another love story" brings us the story of Jonas, who is involved in a car crash and soon mistaken for the victim's boyfriend when he tries to ease his conscience during a visit in hospital. Unable to clear things up, he more and more learns to like his new role and uses it to break out of his otherwise boring life. When Julia starts to remember some things of her past though, the harmless game could potentially become quite dangerous for Jonas.
All in all I really liked the general mood this movie creates. It has the sinister and rather dark look that is typical for Northern-European movies. The different twists are carefully woven together, so that everything adds up in the end without getting too obvious. There are indeed a few aspects you could call at least unlikely, but that is the problem of any film trying to create several plot twists, events will most likely never appear all too likely.
All in all this is really a strong movie within its genre. If you like a high level of tension and some mystery spiced with a little social criticism or just Northern thrillers in general, this could be the film for you.
