For Better and Worse Audience Reviews

Micah Lloyd Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.
Cissy Évelyne It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
Roxie The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
Francene Odetta It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
richard_soderholm So, where should I begin. This "comedy" was one of the worst movies I've seen. I usually enjoy Swedish comedies, and this movie looked promising with many funny Swedish actors and the director Kjell Sundvall who has both "Tomten är far till alla barnen" and "Jägarna" on his resume. This movie also seemed like Kjell Sundvall was trying to make a new "Tomten är far till alla barnen" with many of the same actors from that movie, Dan Ekborg basically playing the same booze drinking character once again and last but not least the same kind of disputes. This movie fails in so many ways because it's so poorly written and it feels like they just made everything in a hurry. Terrible dialogues, terrible acting, terrible jokes, terrible camera work, terrible story and almost no character development at all. Some of the characters are just copies of previous characters from Kjell Sundvall's earlier project. Dan Ekborg as I mentioned, but also the character Fredrik who is played by Johan Ulvesson. Johan Ulvesson basically plays his character from the show "C/O Segemyhr" who's name is also Fredrik which just makes it all even more embarrassing. This movie made me cringe more than it made me laugh just because it's so poorly made, from the beginning to the end. The only reason why I gave it a 2/10 instead of 1/10 is because of the ensemble cast and because of the few laughs that I actually got from the movie.
brothermarx Very funny and witty script written by Monika Rolfner about a Swedish wedding. The parody of the bride's parents is very funny, and marvelously acted by Katarina Ewerlöf and Johan Ulveson. The constant but sometimes witty nagging between the mother's sister and her husband is a red thread that goes through the whole movie, and is a provocative criticism of modern Swedish family life where the wife often prioritizes her work before the family. The working class husband is funnily acted by Peter Magnusson. Kjell Sundvall directs the movie with a steady hand except for a few shots with actress Ida Engvoll, as the bride's friend, that is very bad indeed. Some of the moments in the film with Ida Engvoll are like taken from a horror movie, and seem totally displaced in a comedy. The casting could have been better with a few characters severely miscasted. However, there are also funny performances in the movie from Sigrid Johnson, Dan Ekborg, Per Myrberg, Sten Ljunggren, Anita Wall, Ia Langhammer and Suzanne Reuter so the movie is mostly very funny to watch. The cinematography and costumes are also done with perfection so the total movie experience is very good. 9/10
