Vashirdfel Simply A Masterpiece

Dorathen Better Late Then Never

Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Brenda The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Horst in Translation (filmreviews@web.de) "Whateverest" is a Norwegian 15-minute short film written and directed by Kristoffer Borgli. This was made 4 years ago and it is actually a little mockumentary. It had both comedic and dramatic elements, so I am a bit surprised it is just listed as a drama here on IMDb. Anyway, maybe the humor was too dark. I personally felt the action was not really that interesting and they also could have done better on the drug-related references. I do think though that the lead actor has great screen presence and I believe he should consider a career in acting. I see this is his only credit so far. But Borgli certainly needs to step up his game (if he hasn't already in the last 4 years, to make an impact on the international stage or at least make full feature films first of all. As for "Whateverest", I do not recommend it. If you still want to see it, make sure you got subtitles, unless you are fluent in Norwegian.

Michael Bartlett How this short mockumentary doesn't have higher reviews is entirely beyond me.The filmmaker has managed to capture, in just 15 minutes, a huge range of emotions. You begin by feeling sorry for Marius, almost laughing at him. confined to his failed life. Then you feel pity in that his choice to look after his sick father rather than following his dream was a choice few people today would make. His philosophy "No Bad Days" was a turning point where you begin to realise that despite his circumstances his awkward, sad, optimism in fact quite beautiful.Beautifully filmed, beautifully edited, an amazing soundtrack you can understand how it's managed to win so many awards and that, at the time of writing this, that the film only has a review of 4.9 is a pretty sad reflection on what IMDb users today have become.
