Description

Based on the # 1 New York Times bestseller “A Man Called Ove,” A Man Called Otto tells the story of Otto Anderson (Tom Hanks), a grump who no longer sees purpose in his life following the loss of his wife. Otto is ready to end it all, but his plans are interrupted when a lively young family moves in next door, and he meets his match in quick-witted Marisol. She challenges him to see life differently, leading to an unlikely friendship that turns his world around. A heartwarming and funny story about love, loss, and life, A Man Called Otto shows that family can sometimes be found in the most unexpected places.

  • Not Uplifting for the 60+ Audience

    The acting was fine, but without many scene changes, it was dull to watch. The story used an old & tired literary device, flashbacks. It had a predictable plot, the pop culture prop (a cat) and used homecooked food to bridge a relationship between a lonely older man, and his warm, exuberant new neighbors across the street. Some crossovers messaging was tacked on, but no one got far from the street on which it was filmed. For the recently bereaved, it is not a good choice. Like the winter, it was gray and dull.

    Not worth the time. Clearly an actor who is not relevant anymore just making movies for a check.
  • This is a Really Good Film

    I enjoyed this film and saw it several times, leading up to awards. Tom Hanks plays a great older guy with nothing to live for/angry at the world character. Otto finds that his life can still have meaning and that you being in the world matters. This is not a political film and not sure why people insist on making it one, but whatever.

    This review section makes me sick to my stomach. This has got to be the most powerful Tom Hanks movie in a long time. I’d put it up there with Forest Gump. Do not let all the depressed, self loving, MAGA Trump supporters in this review section fool you. Watch this film, I guarantee you will love it.

    Could have left the lgbt community out of this. Idk it was ok until they added that.
