Movie Reviews

RogerEbert.com - 9/10 by Odie HendersonAll movies are manipulative by default; the effectiveness of that manipulation is the more valid measurement to inspect. On that scale, A Man Called Ove is a morbidly funny and moving success.
Washington Post - 8/10 by Stephanie MerryWe’ve seen these poignant lessons before: Ove is destined to learn that he can’t do it all on his own and that life is still worth living. Yet the moving twists and turns of the love story and the bright comedy elevate an otherwise familiar story line.
Philadelphia Inquirer - 8/10 by Tirdad DerakhshaniA charming, warm-hearted Swedish dramedy about the redemptive power of neighborly love.
San Francisco Chronicle - 8/10 by G. Allen JohnsonThough our put-upon hero’s gradual realization that he has much to live for is obvious from the get-go, it still is a pleasant journey from pawn to king — spiritually speaking, of course.
Entertainment Weekly - 8/10 by Devan CogganHolm’s adaptation is a darkly funny, tragic, and ultimately heartwarming tearjerker about the life of one lonely but extraordinary man.
CineVue - 8/10 by Matthew AndersonAs well as ruminating on grief and the impalpable, incomprehensible sense of loss in the wake of a lifelong love, A Man Called Ove gives credence to the notion that there is much more to any individual than merely a name, that outer appearance and behaviour belie an unknown past.
Empire - 8/10 by David HughesHolm’s well-judged adaptation of the bestseller keeps the maudlin to a minimum and plays the black comedy just right. A strong contender for feel-good film of the year.
Arizona Republic - 8/10 by Bill GoodykoontzWe’ve seen crusty old geezers with hearts of gold plenty of times in films. Here we see how this one got that way, and thanks to Lassgard and Holm, it’s a journey we care about taking.
The Globe and Mail (Toronto) - 8/10 by Barry HertzA Man Called Ove hits all of the genre’s sweet spots, without ever tipping into the saccharine. Most of the credit can be thrown Rolf Lassgard’s way, as the actor gives Ove a humanity, and humility, that is expertly crafted and genuine.
Movie Nation - 8/10 by Roger MooreIt’s also overlong and sentimental. But it’s a vivid, warm and amusing portrait of a real man, someone whose life began in darkness, experienced the light of a great love and has collapsed into a pit of self-pity.
