- Jan-Olov Andersson
Swedish: An absolutely delightful romantic comedy
2. Senses

8 / 10

Translated from swedish: Funny, romantic comedy about daring to step out of your comfort zone. "Året jag slutade prestera och började onanera" delivers on many levels. The only thing I missed was a little more emotional depth.
- Henric Brandt
Swedish: Review: "Året jag slutade prestera och började onanera"
3. Filmtopp

8 / 10

Translated from swedish: When describing "Året jag slutade prestera och började onanera", it sounds like a silly and predictable film, typical for its time. And sure, it is to some extent, but it is also sharp, refreshing, and very funny.

4. SVT

6 / 10

Translated from swedish: It's charming and, in its own way, quite funny too. But despite the humiliation the filmmakers subject Hanna to, it never really ignites, offering no resistance to elevate the film from a lukewarm romcom to a relationship comedy with depth.
- Caroline Hainer
Swedish: Film review: "Året jag slutade prestera och började onanera" directed by Erika Wasserman
5. Expressen

6 / 10

Translated from swedish: Yet there is a refreshing female perspective on the romcom clichés, and in the end, it's of course hard to resist a film that just wants you to masturbate more.
- Maria Brander
Swedish: How good is "Året jag slutade prestera och började onanera"
6. Moviezine

6 / 10

Translated from swedish: The fact that director Erika Wasserman is a debutant is never noticeable; I would say that this is someone who knows how to make a delightful and crowd-pleasing comedy.
- Alexander Kardelo
Swedish: Embarrassingly funny about dildos and life crises
7. Dagens Nyheter

6 / 10

Translated from swedish: One could have expected a little more laughs, and maybe a sharper analysis of how high-achieving (women) should get their lives together better. But Erika Wasserman's attempt to make Judd Apatow-esque comedy in Swedish is a clear vitamin injection.
- Helena Lindblad
Swedish: High energy in sex-positive "Året jag slutade prestera och började onanera"
8. Nöjesguiden

6 / 10

Translated from swedish: The film never becomes more lively or cheeky than all the other Swedish comedies we've seen over the years, but Winter elevates %titlte% to a movie worth watching.
