Alec B A Man Called Ove is a quietly affecting dramedy that blends grumpiness and heart with disarming charm. While its pacing can feel a touch slow and some of its sentimentality a bit on the nose, the film is carried by Rolf Lassgård’s deeply human performance as the curmudgeonly title character. Director Hannes Holm balances humor and melancholy with a light hand, delivering a story that feels both intimate and universal. It’s not the most subtle tearjerker, but it lives up as a worthy adaption of the novel. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/17/25 Full Review Audience Member I thoroughly enjoyed the movie; from the story, to characters, to tiny nuances of the film and performance of the actors. Ive never read the book to compare to the movie but i still loved it. I appreciated the humour added in such a dark genre that it kept pulling my heart strings. I havent watched movies in a while where i actually sat still and paid attention to. Everyone was believable and real, even with just less dialogues i felt and understood the feelings of the story. Honestly brilliant of a film. And I cried more than a handful times spread out in the movie. Im glad to have watched it! Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 07/02/25 Full Review Carlos T Filme: Um Homem Chamado Ove Assistido: 31-01-25 Elenco: Rof Lassgard, @baharpars @filip_berg @idaengvoll Tobias Almborg, Zozan Akgun, Anna Lena Bergelin Modelo: #drama #comedia Duração: 1h 56m Ano: 2015 Minha opinião: Um filme light que sai do caminho Hollywood e isso é bom, aqui temos um filme sueco. Onde temos o viúvo e agora desempregado depois de 40 anos e muito ranzinza Ove (Lassgard). E agora a vida deixa de ter sentido e resolve tirar a vida para estar junto de sua esposa. Mas bem na hora uma nova família se muda para o condomínio que vivem. E então ele tem que resolver pois para ele tudo deve certinho. E quando resolve novamente tirar a vida, surge uma nova situação e assim acontece várias vezes. Até o momento que ele começa a se envolver com a nova família e seu filho. E entre lembranças do passado que acaba construindo toda uma estória. E isto é muito legal, pois vai nos envolvendo. E lembra muito o desenho “UP: Altas Aventuras”. E o filme segue até ele descobrir que deve viver e assim ele passa a interagir com as pessoas, e perdoar oque se deve perdoar. Até que chega o dia de sua partida, mas podendo viver seus últimos dias. Roteiro e enredo um filme que nos abraça e com um humor, gostoso de assistir. Parabéns a todos atores e com ressalva para Rolf Lassgard. Vale apena assistir? Com certeza. Nota: 8,5 Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/05/25 Full Review Sarah G I put this movie in the dvd player just to check that it worked and was so immediately drawn into it that I spent the rest of the afternoon unexpectedly watching it. Simultaneously dark and heart warming, if such a thing can exist. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/16/25 Full Review Tom N A lovely film, so much so I have now purchased it twice. It's a wider story about embracing the world and finding the good people. It warmers my sole. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/28/24 Full Review Audience Member Absolutely one of my favourite movies, it makes me cry during a few scenes when I rewatch it. I haven't read the book yet but I really really want to! Rolf Lassgård is playing this character unbelievably well along with his younger self Filip Berg. This movie is a roller coaster of romance, comedy and drama and the way its shot is amazing, you all know that one particular scene with the bus. 1000/10 tears Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/30/24 Full Review Read all reviews
