It's complicated... I really like the directing, acting and writing but, there are issues with the way it's shot that I just can't deny. As much as I love the storytelling and the fantastic performance but, there are also certain scenes that didn't need to exist.

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

The story-telling is good with flashbacks.The film is both funny and heartbreaking. You smile in a scene and get a soulcrushing revelation in the next.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

This film is about family, about humanity, and about life. It's about everything. The little girl's death threw a bomb to the world around her. Her parents blamed each other for what had happened and grew cold towards each other. The family nearly collapsed.The little girl's death gave his imagery big brother a chance to live as a truly human being. He came out of the walls and stepped into the real world for the first time in his maybe early twenties. As a twenty something grown-up, he is not what people expected him to be; not an experienced, learned or sophisticated adult. On the contrary, he is quite simple, unworldly, and naïve; he's a baby trapped in a young man's body. Even though he still had to take a living adventure on his own. What he went through provided us an opportunity to see and think how one takes and learns to be a capable, suitable and adaptive living person in a society. His endurance showed us how presumption, prejudice, misunderstanding and misconception relate to how we treat one another. What he undertook granted us a possibility to see how people use one another in the wrong way; how people take advantage of others when they feel they are more superior. His odyssey really reveals every aspect of humanity. After seeing this film, we can begin to agree the negative denotation in the phrase "We're Only Human".

There are a few movies today that make you think about society when you leave the darkness of the cinema. Et Rigtigt Menneske does. Åke Sandgren has created a magic story that entertains, puzzles and stays in your mind for a long time. It's a beauty.

what a horrible way to torture your self, don't try to watch this movie, it sucks - BIG time! this is the worst 1½ hour of my life spent. this movie is grose in the pornografic way, it is boring, and after the 1st 15 minutes you know the end. Don't ever watch it, you will be sad you did.gave it a vote of 1 out of 10 only because minus 100 wasn't a possibility

This is a story of a hero.It is the story of the child-like "P" or Achmed, as his name quite surprisingly gets to be. It is a tale of how his refreshing wiev on life today touches - yes, that is the real Oprah word - the lives of various people. May it be the struggling career couple of Valther and Charlotte, the poor and alone and somehow deranged mr. Stromboli, the young-at-heart Tanja who has a crush on him etc. With his naïvety and stubborn believing in man's good side, he has a tremendous impact on his surroundings. It is as the crystal clear voices of a boy choir leads him wherever he goes. And in the end we are all better people, now when true love and trust has touched us deeply and moved us.In the beginning and in the end this Dogme film is rather annoying. But in between there are some quite nice scenes, who with humour, wit and poetry describes the amusing struggles for "P" to become a real human being. Especially his escapades at the refugee center or the initial scenes with Valther and mr. Stromboli has a great blend of sadness and fun. In the end, however, as the lesson comes to an end, the film underlines the importance of the values "P" brought us. And that is perhaps a bit over the top.Nikolaj Lie Kaas portraits "P" like his character in the second Dogme film "Idioterne". If you still aren't fed up with looking at him, you'll probably be it after this one. He has a limited acting ability, and he is putting it to the limits. Peter Mygind struggles with his image as the fun boy and actually get's away with it. But Susan Olsen's Charlotte is probably the most authentic character that must grant her a breakthrough in Danish movies.Åke Sandgren has made a 'humanistic fable'. Sometimes it is too humanistic, sometimes it is too fable, but it has it's moments - still it is one of the weaker Dogme films.6/10
