8 foreign reviews of Superheroes (2021)

  • 1. Nöjesguiden
    5 / 6

    Translated from swedish: An overarching theme about time and what we do with it begins to permeate everything, the trials the couple faces convince me that it really can be difficult to act right in relationships, and in a delivery scene near the end I suddenly notice that I'm crying. And maybe that's how it is with love – sometimes you just need to give it a little time.

  • 3. Hemmabiotidningen
    8 / 10

    Translated from swedish: A bittersweet, gripping and heartwarming story about all the inevitable, difficult and beautiful things we face in life when it comes to love and relationships.

  • 4. Filmeye
    3 / 5

    Translated from swedish: There's undeniable chemistry between the leads and the dialogue is charming and not entirely predictable, but it never really goes deep. The superpowers that a couple must possess are talked about less and less as the movie progresses.
    - Ulrika Köpsén

  • 5. Aftonbladet
    2 / 5

    Translated from swedish: There's something to the premise, but everything is told so frenetically non-chronologically – with constant jumping not just through time but also between different places and peripheral characters (friends, exes, friends' partners) – that the story never gets a chance to land on anything or anyone. It mostly becomes a disorganized collection of sentimental scenes from a relationship.

  • 6. Göteborgs-Posten
    2 / 5

    Translated from swedish: The drama is well-acted and packed with spot-on observations – yet it becomes unnecessarily messy.

    Translated from swedish: Good idea that drowns in sentimental tears

  • 8. Kulturbloggen
    4 / 10

    Translated from swedish: For me, this film is too superficial. There are many more and deeper layers to explore when it comes to love and staying together. Another issue with the movie is its time jumps that make the story occasionally a bit too messy and confusing. But I realize I'm not the right target audience for this film.
    - Rosemari Södergren
