PlatinumRead Just so...so bad

BroadcastChic Excellent, a Must See

Glimmerubro It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.

Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

freddellmeister The pacing is horrible, everything is pathetic and slow. Overstated. The actors are OK, but the direction and production of this movie is rather dull.How many times does everything need to be repeated? We get it the first time around!!It appeals not to the viewers own feelings or experiences but everything is laid out in it bare naked depressing view.No wonder Swedes have to be intoxicated to stand themselves. Watching this movie is not recommended.With better pacing, script, timing and more aggressive cutting in the final production phase, it might have been above awful..Brasse needs stronger direction as his potential to a large extent is lost except for a few scenes where his presence is felt.

rightwingisevil Translated into English from Filmkritikerna.se by critic Erik Fellman: Bäst före (Best Before) 2013Tonight's film tips is the Swedish film Best Before is a story about three men. We follow Bosse is nypensionerad and abandoned by his wife. Lennart who have blind faith in their own charm. and Anders, who is convinced that he has come up the next big idea for a television program. Now these friends decide to make a cruise.Film critics discuss: Eric Fellman: It feels like Best Before has passed its sell-by date a long time ago. The film feels like a silja line advertising flags. I like the three actors who play the main role, Brasse Brännström, Kjell Bergqvist and Goran Ragnerstam. I think they are both good and funny in ordinary cases, even in this film, it has its few moments when they get a laugh at.But there the laughter out unfortunately, it does not feel like it will be something floating in the film but feels most stiffly from one stage to the other.The film tries to be both a comedy and drama but fall short when they come to them both and become someone awkward mixture as a final product instead.
