Happy Happy

Happy Happy

Norway decided to go with "Happy Happy" when the race for an Oscar nomination for "Best Foreign Film" in 2012 started. If you ask me, this is not a very Oscar-ish film, but then again, neither was Greese’s "Dogtooth" in 2011. Anyway, "Happy Happy" is a wonderfully strange comedy that's really more sad than it's funny, really. The title "Happy Happy" is just about the most misleading title since Todd Solondz' "Happy", as there's quite simply not much happiness here. (7 out of 10)
