Happy Endings Sleepover

I really wanted to love this film because the premise sounded interesting. While certain aspects have been well-made, obvious and careless dialogue coupled with incredibly wooden and amateur acting let it down.

I wanted to love you "Happy Endings Sleepover" and I rooted for you and your sweet characters throughout, but ultimately, the production value and questionable acting failed you. :(

I honestly couldn't (and can't) tell if this film is meant to be taken seriously, or is it a parody? I was sure it was as parody until about 3/4 of the way through, when it suddenly became a little too "serious" to be a joke. I had been enjoying it immensely up until this point. A love story wrapped up in a parody seemed like a pretty unique concept. The two main actors are very likeable. (And as an aside in response to one of the other reviewers -- who cares if the actors are actually Norwegian or Danish or American or Martian in real life!....But I do agree that there was a lot that could have been, and should have been, cut.) Something that shouldn't have been cut was the first two-thirds of the song "I Hope that I Don't Fall in Love With You". Something that I found very thought-provoking was the issue that caused the "disagreement" between Johnnie and Sander near the end. It would never have occurred to me, to react to Johnnie's reasons for not wanting to tell his mother about Sander, the way Sander reacted. But I can actually see Sander's point of view. It really made me think. It also made me like this film even more than I did when I was taking it as a big joke. On the whole, it was a strangely appealing movie that I would recommend without reservation.

When ever a movie has running commentary by the protagonist, "Let me explain", means the viewer is in for a bag of hurt. This amateurish film's plot, writing, directing, acting, character development, cinematography, sound design, musical score, etc is painfully incompetent..The story is NOT well thought out and the director doesn't know how to tell a story using film techniques. I don't fault the actors , as I'm sure a competent director and script could have obtained worthy performances. It's essentially a bad student film.

They tried. I assume they had a very low budget to give us this production. It was cute in its own way, but very unbelievable. However, I got a few laughs out of it, so I guess there's that?

I'm pretty sure it was both of the leads' first acting jobs, so I can forgive them for that. Also, I love that part of the world because it gives us so many attractive actors to look at.

Danish film involving a gay spy and......well the plot isn't easy to layout and besides that would be a spoiler. I enjoyed this film for its stars who are just the most engaging young men you would want to see. I enjoyed this film because it has a satirical take on spy movies. I enjoyed this movie because it made me laugh. I even liked the bad guy who is sort of pathetic in a nice way. I strongly recommend watching. Now. There is a bit of clunkiness to the enterprise here and there but it is easily forgivable. In fact maybe that is part of the film's charm.
