Ove is a man of few words, of staunch principles and strict routines. He doesn’t like his neighbours (or their cats) or their ways and he faces enforced early retirement without his beloved wife who recently died. However, beneath this grumpy exterior lies a story of pathos and sadness and we see life change for Ove when new neighbours move in.
“A Man Called Ove is both dourly funny and affecting. A bad-mood feel-good movie.” – New Zealand Herald

Nice film.
Brilliantly acted. Sometimes it felt a bit slow.
Enjoyable if a bit predictable.
Glad we did not miss this one!
How to charm women!
You see, we grumps have a heart of gold but sometimes miss the real point of life.
