A light, comic piece. Subtitles are a bit hodge-podge. Worth a watch, if you enjoy foreign films and quirky characters.

This movie is sweet, perceptive, different, and hilarious. Norwegians definitely can laugh at themselves, their culture, and their government without Hollywood makeup on. If you can grasp their subtle send up of themselves you will laugh…

delightful, amusing Norwegian film. 2 others that will make you smile are Kitchen Stories and O'Horten.

This is an absolute gem of a film. The quirky characters' stories are told from a perspective of utter respect. It's a little bit of a Norwegian Odd Couple - only better - with a sprinkling of Norwegian social commentary.
