Review of A Man Called Ove (2015) by Scarlettmi — 24 Nov 2016
I've got no expectations that anyone else needs to give this movie a 10/10 rating. It's a bit schmaltzy and predictable in the way it tugs at the viewers heartstrings, but it worked on me.
I knew nothing about what this movie would be when I decided to catch it at a recent film festival. Perhaps that's part of why it got to me so much. I was blindsided by how funny and sad it was. I was constantly crying or laughing or both.
In this instance, I can't help but judge it based on how it affected me as a viewer. It was an emotional movie-going experience and I really loved it.
