Beanbioca As Good As It Gets

RipDelight This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.

Kirandeep Yoder The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

eve ann This show is just so funny! I have been wanting to see this series after reading up on it, but when we got the DVD i was disappointed that it had no English subtitles. So my boyfriend (good thing he's Danish!) took the sweetest task of translating for me as we watched, and we couldn't stop laughing! We wonder how it could happen but it did... we guess it must be because Frank and Casper's facial expressions and movements are so silly, and the two women Mia and Iben are really seriously funny as well. And of course, my boyfriend's way of translating the dialogue was done with a real talent and i love him for it. Great show guys!

heidi-183 Everything happens to Frank, and its because he's so stupid. You think: Now it would be a really bad idea to do THAT, and then the second later he's in the very situation you would hate to see him in. A very good piece of entertainment if you are into the danish humor, which is very ironic and harsh. For instance they make fun of being a racist, which is kind of a tender topic these days. But it seems alright in the series because it's only the "bad" guy Frank who is a racist and he is totally voted down on this point of view and it bites himself in the ass in the end. They really had a good idea when they made this show happen because after their big hits like "Far from Las Vegas" they needed a new face in front, they've been using Casper Christensen all the time and Frank has been along the side from the beginning. So the switch of focus has not only been a success but they made Casper an asshole and that is quite funny for the Danes because everyone knows that he is very nice in real life.

Per Kristensen The best way to describe this to Americans is: "like Curb Your Enthusiasm... only actually funny!" Yes some say they stole the idea from Curb, and they admit that they where inspired by that show, but I never thought Curb was very funny. However Klovn is great fun. Not many shows actually make me laugh out loud, but this one sure does. Frank Wahm is a master of expressions and one look on his face can make you laugh. Also the show seems to go way beyond the normal tabu subjects and have no problem using cancer or what not as a punchline. The humor can be very "dark" at times, but thats one of the things that sets it apart from the norm.

thomas-110 "Klovn" is a comedy show apparently based on real events. It has a semi-documentary style to it, very much like the innovative American comedy series "Curb Your Enthusiasm". Although very much in its infancy, I must say that "Klovn" looks great, and that is due to the wonderful writing and the fact that the people behind it are Denmarks best comedians - Casper Christensen and Frank Hvam. They continue to take Danish sit-coms to new levels, and "Klovn" is another fine piece of work. So never mind that the idea was not their own to begin with.The rest of the acting line-up consists of accomplished actors and actresses, for example is Iben Hjelje (High Fidelity) one of the supporting actresses on show here.If you're fond of real-lifelike, embarrassing situations acted out by very funny people, this is a show you must see.
