Swede Caroline

Had me laughing from start to finish! The satirical nature of this film sets it apart from current movie releases. Fairly unassuming, this film will catch of guard with it's ability to find humour in the mundane.

What starts off a typical mockumentary, quickly decends into rabbit hole of comedic mystery which will keep you guessing throughout!

The score to the film is fantastic with the songs mirroring what you would imagine caroline (the main character) enjoying herself.

With songs ranging from the poem, I want be yours by John Cooper Clark, to the inevitable Sweet Caroline by neil Diamond it gives the feeling of and everyday working man's Spotify playlist.

If you haven't seen this before it's definitely a must watch!!

I went into Swede Caroline not knowing exactly what to expect, and I was completely blown away. This film is an absolute gem! It's the perfect blend of British humor and originality.

Jo Hartley is brilliant as Caroline and instantly lovable. There is brilliant comedy throughout with just the right amount of absurdity - which you can expect from writer/director - Brook Driver. The story of a giant vegetable-growing competition might sound niche, but trust me, it's gold. The mockumentary style works perfectly, pulling you into the small-town drama in the most hilarious way.

What I loved most is how, even though the film is pretty bonkers, it still has real heart. The writing is sharp and there are lots of laugh out loud moments.

A comedy gem - wonderfully absurd!

Swede Caroline is a hilarious mockumentary that feels both fresh and quintessentially British, following a community obsessed with competitive vegetable growing.

Jo Hartley is brilliant as the lead, bringing charm and authenticity to her role as Caroline, making you root for her from start to finish. Every supporting character is more delightfully odd than the last, creating a world that feels at once completely ridiculous but also entirely relatable.

The mockumentary format is used perfectly to capture the small-town rivalries, personal ambitions and hilarious character quirks throughout. The brilliant writing and clever dialogue, delivered with pitch-perfect timing makes this a real joy to watch.

A must-watch for anyone who loves a smart, character-driven comedy. It's a story with a lot of heart, all wrapped up in a world of giant vegetables. Proving that the best comedies are homegrown!

Swede Caroline is the world's biggest turnip!

It is a very amateurish affair just a cut above fart jokes. And no one in the audience laughed beyond a mild chuckle, which were few and far between.

The hightlight of the movie was the John Cooper Clark track towards the end of film, which was cleverly written and delivered, and it garnered the most laughs from the audience. The rest of the soundtrack was good too.

In part, I grew up on a working farm and had my own allotment for many years, and I've had better laughs digging in the drenching rain on a Sunday afternoon.

Part of the draw to see watch this steaming heap of compost was the cast, but they were severely restricted by their poorly defined characters and poor script.

Swede Caroline is a raw and refreshingly funny British comedy that doesn't hold back. It tells the story of Caroline navigating a whirlwind of unpredictable events, mixing moments of chaos with humor that feels effortless. The comedy isn't overworked-it's natural and flows perfectly with the situations Caroline faces. One of the film's standout features is its soundtrack-it's that good. Watch it with Shazam ready, I would. The songs perfectly match the energy of the film's wild, unpredictable ride...

Swede Caroline is a real gem worth watching.

I need to right a few more words to pass the minimum required.
