Reception

Call Mom! received 3/5 stars from Helena Lindblad  [ sv ] in Dagens Nyehter. [3] In a mixed-to-positive review for Kulturnyheterna  [ sv ], critic Fredrik Sahlin  [ sv ] praised Sanna Sundqvist's comedic leading performance but felt the film occasionally leaned too far into formulaic genre tropes. [4] Both Lindblad and Sahlin noted similarities to Bridget Jones Diary . [3] [4] Jens Peterson  [ sv ] cited a scene involving Cecilia Forss and Björn Gustafsson as the film's funniest. [5]

Sundqvist and Evin Ahmad were both nominated for Guldbagge Awards for their performances. Aschan was nominated for the Guldbagge Award for Best Screenplay. [6]
