Welcome to a world of dark and dirty humour that Danes do so well, where pretty much nothing is off limits. It's 1986, months after the Chernobyl disaster. With nuclear fall-out weighing heavily on his mind, teenage poet Jens could do with a break from his crazy family. His domineering father Uffe (also known as 'God'), an erstwhile writer and now self-styled psychologist, uses their living room for some seriously weird therapy sessions. Older brother Thomas is a legendary wanker. Literally. He's holed up in his bedroom trying to break a masturbation record. Their Swedish mum seems pretty cool, although she's not above asking the local hooker over to help relieve her boy of his virginity 'problem'. But when 'God' gets bowled a medical bombshell, a fresh circle of hell breaks loose... And it's one hell of a hoot. (London Film Festival)

português Os personagens estranhos transformam-se em figuras humanas simpáticas e a visão ambígua do autor num agradável drama familiar. Uma sobremesa, puramente por diversão, sem qualquer complexidade de ideias. ()

inglês Word of God is exactly the kind of emotional rollercoaster you’d expect from Danish cinema. It kicks off as a wild, over-the-top ride that’s teetering on the edge of logic, but it’s also pretty entertaining in its absurdity, almost flirting with a bit of dark humor. Just when you think you’ve got the tone figured out, it takes a sharp turn into that signature Scandinavian gloom, and things start to get intense. Honestly, I might have enjoyed it more if it didn’t dive so deep into the darkness. It’s hard to find any sense in such a bizarre family dynamic when the film makes it clear from the start that logic has no place here. ()

inglês Too bad about the lukewarm and embarrassing start, which doesn't seem to know which tone to choose. It is otherwise a light version of the Polish film The Last Family, which is ruled by my favorite actor Søren Malling in the role of an unbearable manipulative asshole in a bathrobe. The film sometimes drowns in its comedic tone, but as a drama, it has its touching spots. Genz opted for a very stylized feel, which on the one hand adds a retro charm to Uffe's estate, while on the other hand the film sometimes feels excessively leathery. The gods must be crazy, and I eventually developed a certain weakness for Uffe. ()
