    The plot is okay but the actors are really bad. And there are many "...the **** moments. Looking past that I can say that I enjoyed watching it, but it was mostly because of the connection with the country and the nice landscape.

    Refreshingly original. The amazing landscape and dreamy soundtrack are pleasure to behold. Alma is a great character and the actress playing her deserves major recognition.

    Fresh and original, Turn Me On, Dammit! is a great dark comedy from the foreign market. This Norwegian teen drama focuses on all the struggles we go through during hormonal changes but are to afraid to discuss. It's raw riveting and just perfectly written. Alma will stay with me throughout the rest of the year, she's a character that is just hard to forget.

    Alma is at once a charmer and a contrarian, and Bergsholm achieves that balance with seeming effortlessness. At times, she's more than a bit reminiscent of the young Jodie Foster.

    Jannicke Systad Jacobsen, a documentary maker directing her first fiction film, demonstrates a sure sense of tone, and Bergsholm is memorable as the misfit teen.

    The movie treats a girl's burgeoning sexuality as neither epic nor problematic, or mutually exclusive of feelings of love, but rather simply, refreshingly, as one part of maturing.
