A Man Called Ove

THE GIST: Ove is a cantankerous widower who purports to look over the neighborhood when all he does is actually harass and malign the other tenants. When a new family moves in, an initial rough introduction turns into an unexpected friendship.

A Man Called Ove is a heartwarming tale of love and friendship hidden behind a facade or sadness, grief, loss, and bitterness, so don't be fooled by it.

Rolf Lassgård and Bahar Pars wonderfully play the two very different individuals who end up sharing a very unlikely human connection.

THE BOTTOM LINE: Don't miss this little cinematic gem. It'll steal your heart!

Grade: 8
