A Man Called Ove

Plot-
An unlikely friendship develops between Ove (Rolf Lassgård), a grumpy retiree, and his new neighbors. 

Pros:
•Such a beautiful story with well written characters. It sucks you in right from the beginning. You slowly learn about Ove and why he is the way he is. You really feel for him. 
•Moves at a pretty good pace. 
•Clever dialog 
•Strong acting by the entire cast. They all had really good chemistry. 

Cons:
•The trailer is kind of misleading. They make it seem like a comedy and yeah it has some humorous moments, but it's more of a dramedy. Be sure to have plenty of tissues handy. 
•The story itself, while very good, is predictable. 

My Rating: 8.5/10
