reception
The film, which grossed $ 2 million in Denmark , received mostly good or mixed reviews.
“ Superclassico is a lively Danish comedy, just right for early summer. The film makes you want to go on vacation and free time, offers untiring entertainment and lives from its human actors. "
“It's good entertainment in this film, but perhaps differently than what writer and director Ole Christian Madsen intended. Because the European main actors are stolen from the show by great trump cards, especially a sullen winemaker and a no longer very young but classy housekeeper. "
"Shell comedy with an impertinent, redundant voiceover and unsympathetic characters who do not arouse sympathy."
