The first two reviews in here are so unfair, that I can't let it slide. Mummola certainly isn't "your average christmas movie", but instead it's really relatable film about the continuum of Finnish generations.

I just love the unhurried rhythm and natural, almost documentary-like vibe in it. The latter also thanks to the skilled actors. It captures the Finnish family gatherings so truly. The setting is built to be warm, but there's all kinds of time bombs under the surface just waiting to explode. Everyone knows that it's a mandatory duty to sit at the same table annually, but hardly anyone enjoys it.

Mummola leaves a lot of room for the viewers. The style of shooting, the dialogue. What is shown and what isn't, what is said and what isn't. In my opinion it's one of the best Finnish films of 2023 with Kuolleet lehdet, Sisu etc. If interpersonal relationships are your thing, this could be a treat for you.

This might be a long shot, but Mummola oddly reminds me of movies like Petite maman, La Fille inconnue and On Golden Pond to name a few.

Wow! I must say I was blown away by this gem. I found it almost scary how insightful Family Time was. It's not often you watch a film and think, oh, that's just like me or hey, I've been in that situation.

Family Time deals with serious issues without being depressive. I wouldn't label it as comedy though, not by a long shot. Sure, there are funny moments too, just like in real life. But if you just wish for something light to watch, you might want to pass on this one and maybe watch it when you feel up to see something deeper.

If you like to observe people, this is for you for sure. I really enjoyed observing how the characters each dealt with difficult situations.

I found the characters interesting and I really felt for them. You just want to give them a hug!

I was disappointed when the film ended though: I wasn't ready to let go.

Scenes were nice. Maybe couple jokes.

Then 1hour and 50minutes pure torture.

Kaurismäki movies are real action movies, if you compare them to this.

It takes much more than a couple good actress to make a good enjoyable movie.

Camera work is like it has been made with 70' cinefilm camera, kind of one of the best parts in hole film. But didn't help enough.

The film was boring me to almost death. Maybe the worst movie I have never seen in my life.

If you think you need a good laugh, go to see some other movie. This movie only makes you feel worse than you did before it.

I would like to get my money back and some sort of compensation.

Such a lovely little gem. A fine capsule of the essence of Finnishness. Leena Uotila is absolutely superb as the Mummo.

The movie has an atypical structure in many ways, but it lacks the pretentiousness of an art film. Each picture is meticulously crafted, each dialogue thoroughly authentic and satisfying. This is how Finns speak and behave: a documentary couldn't have captured it better.

If anyone anything, the film is a depiction of life. Not glamorous, not super exciting, not excessively dramatic - just as life isn't any of these things. A bit funny, a bit sad, a bit boring. Authentic and original.

Depressing, boring, monotonous and obviously, I do not recommend this film!!! Generally, I appreciate character driven films and really enjoy those films from outside of Hollywood. However, this film was almost two hours of gray nothing. The two young children rarely speak. The two dimensional characters complain continuously. There are no closeups. It is inconceivable that it has been nominated for at least one foreign film award. On a Sunday afternoon at a well regarded theatre, I actually saw some attendees taking a nap. I have been to Finland and this film does not do the people, nor their lifestyle justice!

The movie had no plot, no writing, no feeling it was a full boring pathetic excuse for a story.

The movie starts with a family gathering on christmas they start to talk and literally nothing happens. The movie was even more boring than my dead grandmoms every day life when she was alive.

I seriously don't know How bad writing this had why did u even make this movie?

They also wasted time since there were a lot of unnecessary scenes like a girl swinging in a chair for TWO MINUTES STRAIGHT!

If u see this never watch this movie save yourself from headache and a bad night this doesn't deserve anything.
