A Major Disappointment

Don't be put off by the low rating, this brilliant film directed by Hella Joof deserves far better. It is a perfect screwball comedy in the tradition of 1930s and 40s classics such as The Lady Eve and Bringing Up Baby. The main characters are Anne, who is a super-organised TV presenter who plans to have a baby on her own and Gordon, who is on the surface a total mess. The director handles everything with a light and elegant touch, and builds up to the climax of chaos which Gordon creates in Anne's life. Mayhem ensues and we're taken on a roller coaster ride whilst the two struggle to figure each other out. We're treated to moments of slapstick comedy, classic movie references, and swift repartee. It's all handled skillfully and with a sure hand by the director and the brilliant actors. Everyone has an amazing time, as I did watching it. I whooped with joy at times and laughed a lot. Absolutely brilliant.

It's a harmless feel-good movie with no lasting impression or memorable highlights. Although packed with the best of intentions the movie is marred by hammy acting, a manuscript of clichés and teenager attitudes.The actors are some of Denmarks best so the hammy acting must be attributed to inept directing by Hella Joof. Hella Joof is presumably very jolly and kind, an avid left-winger with all the correct attitudes, which comes across. It leaves room for no convincing edges, it's all stilted and awkward in the inept and politically correct way. Awkward is funny when it's convincing, this is generally embarrassing. Nicolai Lie Kaas is the master of awkward and what little actually works in this dud is due to his huge talent. A shame about this inconsequential movie because Nicolai Lie Kaas is one of the best and likable actors in Denmark. But even the best ones are wasted effort once in a while.

Lene Maria Christensen plays Anne, the late-aged TV-hostess, who has concentrated much of her time on her career and less time on finding a husband and having children. If she is to have children, she needs to have them now, even if it's with an anonymous donor. This recipe has been done before by Hollywood, but to me this version is a little more realistic.Annes sister has three children with one more on the way. It's easy to tell that Anne thinks she'll make a much better mom than her sister, but she's visibly jealous of her sisters many children. Her brother in laws behavior raises the question of whether environment or genetics plays the major part in how children will turn out. A midwife tells her it's ALL genetics. Anne feels obliged to begin the quest of finding out who her donor is. This is where the movie really takes off and is quite enjoyable.The casting is well-done and each character plays their role with pathos. There are many memorable moments, especially in Nikolaj Lie Kaas' lines and gimmicks.
