Movie Reviews

Reviewed by Kirpianuscus

nice and little more

A film about refuges. In many senses, in many forms. Seductive for the inspired performances, for humor, melancholia , maybe not exactly for the end. A clash between cultures and a romance seeming not the familiar one. A film about sense of life of an Iranian refugee in Finland, for a young woman looking for help the others for ignore herself. Maybe not great but very nice. As a sort of polite interogation about the viewer perspective about the other.

A cute 'opposites attract' romantic comedy

I had not read anything about the plot when I walked into the theatre but just after a few minutes I knew excatly where it was going. I love romcoms so I wasn't too bothered by it and stayed for the story. A girl helping a refugee get a wife so he can stay in Finland legally, that already sounds pretty interesting. In the movie the northern side of Finland is portrayed more accurately and not as a magical place like in most ads. The movie does have a minor racism subplot as well as something about the girl's grandmother but those were forgetable. I love the main character and how her actress portrayed her, the acting in general is nothing special but never took me out of the movie. The jokes were okay or just unfunny and the movie just..ended? It felt a bit sudden.
