Compared with the lively Hollywood and the more lively Bollywood, the Nordic movies are like the blue sky that seems to always be there. I don't know when they have been labeled as "frigid" by good people. In fact, it is not. They don't know how to express, but they are not so unrestrained and more reserved. For example, this old man named Ove. He seems to be the general manager of the community, to take care of the bicycles that are parked indiscriminately, cats and dogs, and foreign vehicles that come in and out at will, as if there is nothing he cares about, and that famous gun barrel temper makes the In the eyes of the neighbors, he always seemed a little out of place, but after a long time, everyone got used to it, until one day a Muslim immigrant from Iran moved in next door, and the lively family suddenly took the old man.

At this time, his fate has been prepared. Glide down another dark track, until Ove met the bright woman destined to appear in his life on the train, red retro lace-up high heels, short brown hair, dazzling white teeth with a smile, love to read books , Sonya with her own warm aura. Perhaps it is due to a certain fate, a man finally met a woman, just like Venus met Mars.

The stubborn old man with a twisted face and the big three words "unhappy" written on his forehead is gone. The enthusiastic person who is full of love, enthusiasm and heat for life is back, just like the blue sky , it makes me feel warm when I look at it. Even if he does leave in the end, I believe he must be smiling to see his lover.

The film is extremely simple, with no big scenes, let alone special effects. All the cast and crew believe that for most audiences, they did not know each other before this film. It must even be admitted frankly that there is nothing surprising about the subject matter itself. For you, me and him in front of the screen, it is very likely that they have already guessed what the ending will be when they see one third of the time. There must be one.
