Under The Sun is a decent, polished and rather coy romantic indulgence, just the kind of thing for people who like the idea of the farm but can't abide the dirt. Jul 26, 2002 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

It's like an Ingmar Bergman parody of what used to be racy about Swedish cinema -- sexy and sentimental and absolutely gorgeous to look at. Mar 14, 2002 | Rating: 4/5

Try to block out the heavy-handed symbolism and predictable plot, and concentrate on the wonderful Lassgärd. Oct 18, 2001

Under the Sun succeeds in direct proportion to one's ability to fall in sync with its tentative pace and low-keyed mood. Mar 14, 2002 | Rating: 3.5/5 | Full Review…

If there was a subtle, truthful way to tell the sappy story of Under the Sun, the director Colin Nutley was unable to find it. Oct 22, 2001 | Full Review…

Cute but it falls short of a total success. Think of it as grumpy middle aged men but with Swedishness throughout.
Super Reviewer
Redemptive tale, lyrically told and filmed in golden hues, of a lonely Swedish farmer who hires a mysterious housekeeper with a past: can they save each other? Simplicity and the importance of trust have seldom looked so good.
