Balls (Swedish: Farsan) is a 2010 Swedish comedy film that was directed by Josef Fares.
In Sweden, the film got mixed reviews. In Aftonbladet the film was given a 3 out of 5 rating and was described as "not the best or funniest of Josef Fares's movies - but it is a warm and loving comical hommage to quirky fathers in general". In Expressen, the review was slightly less favorable (2 out of 5) and Fares was described as playing with safe cards in his somewhat artificial characters. In other big newspapers the reviews were similar: 3 out of 5 in Dagens Nyheter and 2 out of 6 in Svenska Dagbladet.
