The movie is about a very loved Danish musician, and those can be difficult to portray, however, Anders W. Berthelsen did an amazing job here. Both his mannerism and his singing mimic Bamse very well. Most of the other acting performances were good as well, though a few fell flat and it seemed like they were just reading their lines.
The story itself is more about the struggles of Bamse, especially those surrounding being adopted and the relationship he had with his father. I expected to know more about his career, as the movies begins after he his already a popular singer, and this did disappoint me a bit. Sometimes the storyline appeared a little thin.
Overall, it is a sweet, heartfelt movie, and it had me getting emotional a couple of times in the theater.
