Adapting based on the novel "En man som heter ove" by Hannes Holm, there are already several films that use the story of the novel. One of them is a remake entitled: A Man Called Otto. I can't analyze more deeply about the original novel, because I haven't read it yet. So that I judge this film according to what I look at, from the plot and mandate of the film A Man Called Otto.
Looking at the main character played by my favorite actor Tom Hanks, the elderly Otto, with a temperament triggered by the past. But Marisol new neighbor who lives in a housing complex with husband and children, faces him like a friendly Latin character, as a Mexican immigrant wife who brings a positive atmosphere and a husband, Otto considers stupid. I was very impressed with Mariana Trevino's role as Marisol.
This film builds characterizations that must be recognized well from the actors. Here I don't pay attention to Tom Hanks' acting, because there's no need to doubt a Hollywood legend. But I see the reality described by the film, that a man will be destroyed and unkempt if he loses a woman, this is an example of a man's emptiness.
Even though I think there is a scenario that is not satisfactory enough, where Rueben and Otto's problems are too absurd, from the backward plot scene. It also triggers conflict builders who are also not too dramatic, and comedy offerings are not demonstrated in dialogue, which makes the script not very interesting to me humorously, but the scene that I call "Pending life-delieving experiments" is the most unique.
And the intuition of the audience throughout the film, makes this film too convoluted, so it's easy for me to find what will happen on the Bus that Otto is riding with pregnant wife, when the past scene of their accident. Therefore, between the scenario and intuition the audience must be different, so that the film can create a plot twist that surprises both thoughts and feelings. A Man Called Otto: I call it pretty good for free time, so 6.7/10.
