“The tutor’s grip is not enough to keep a variety of episodes in size,” Katriina Kauppila also said.

“Pohjola seeks out a narrative nostalgic genius and a humorous joke,” wrote Tarmo Poussu (Ilta-Sanomat on December 11, 1992). “The company is still a sham and the cause is not merely a manuscript in the unprecedented episodic nature, but Pohjola can not get its kind of childlike character out of the wild actor performances.
