A Man Called Ove - Reviews

Holm pulls everything together in a well-crafted, satisfying package that is nicely balanced between comedy and pathos.
As Ove, Lassgård gives one of the year’s best performances. He’s well supported by the other actors...

It’s moving (...) to see his cantankerousness melted away by Parvaneh’s sunny good nature.

A strong contender for feel-good film of the year.

...deftly incorporates the seminal moments of its titular character’s past in a series of flashbacks that inform, rather than intrude upon, the present.

...kommer att fungera på samma sätt som 'Hundraåringen som klev ut genom fönstret och försvann'...

’En mand der hedder Ove’ er en rørende oplevelse, og man tilgiver skavankerne...

…Lassgård briljerar som livstrött ordningsfascist…

Det er svært at forestille sig en bedre Ove, end den som Rolf Lassgård leverer.
