Yesterday I went to the cinema and watched this movie. The only good thing about it was delicious popcorn. What a waste of time and money.

First of all, dialogues are so cheezy and predictable. I would compare it with a love poem written by the primary school kid. Besides, acting was completely unconvincing. The audience was actually laughing at some parts that did not suppose to be funny, but they were because of bad acting. There were few particularly awkward scenes. And plot twist in the end... completely unnecessary.

I don't know, maybe I'm to old for this kind of movie, but in my opinion adults won't see much quality in this movie.

I saw this movie got an Oscar nomination for the Best Foreign Movie and decided to watch it. And I have to say I'm blown away!

Beautiful story, great actors, the characters are very well developed, smart humor. I was both laughing and crying while watching it. Actually I can't remember when was the last time I cried so much at the end of any movie. It reminds me a little bit of my favorite movie - Intouchables (France). It is also both very entertainment and touching. I've seen few Sweedish films but this one is undoubtedly the best one. It's also my favorite for the Oscars.

I can highly recommend it to anyone!

I enjoyed every minute of the movie!At the same time Samba is so entertaining and comical with lots of great scenes, but also educative and touching. It shows real European attitude towards immigrants. I have to highlight actors. Both Omar Sy and Charlotte Gainsbourg are so believable. My favorite character is definitely Wilson, brilliantly played by Tahar Rahim. So lovable character. The soundtrack is also brilliant. I recommend Samba to all who wants good, entertaining comedy with unusual love story. This movie is so different from classical Hollywood romantic comedy and that's why I prefer European and non-Hollywood comedies.
