9 / 10
While dewy-eyed viewers may choose to see the story as a confirmation of the role that destiny and fate play in our lives, more level-headed audiences can simply enjoy the film at face value. And a movie that can appeal to romantics and rationalists alike is always welcome.

8 / 10
Translated from swedish: I can imagine that a younger generation may perceive the film as a bit slow and difficult to grasp. You need to have the energy to engage yourself for a few hours. Make sure you have the energy for this movie. It's not a recommendation after a tough work week. But otherwise, it's a steady four.

The script is shrewd and inventive, combining wit, romance, and intelligent melodrama into a crowd-pleasing whole. "Sliding Doors" grants more than just a good time at the movies, however. For those who are so inclined, its central theme offers an opportunity to ponder some of the more philosophical questions about the workings of the universe — all while having a good time.
