Solemplex To me, this movie is perfection.

Kailansorac Clever, believable, and super fun to watch. It totally has replay value.

Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Juana what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

invisiblespark I have recently watched Nokas , as it is supposed to be about a robbery that really took place in Norway,and it was meant to have a believable script and a real life feeling to it.I love and hate the movie and here's my motives : the characters have no substance, it is difficult to tell who's who and many of the actors involved have no purpose to explain the story. The director takes the viewers attention in a roller-coaster of good and bad scenes but the scenes do not add up or reveal the center point of the story and leaves the viewer frustrated waiting for something to happen. It seems as if the one planning the robbery was a total idiot and no one of the thieves knew what they were supposed to do ,and the cops as well seem like a bunch of freshmen on their first day on the job. What i loved about the movie was the fear that felt real between the bank employees,the arson of the truck,the fact that failure can occur anytime, not like in American movies where everything goes right the first time.Also the break into the bank was very well directed but i felt that a large part of the story is missing, and the movie ends abruptlyI recommend the movie only if you attending director/actor classes and want a point of reference

urbanforceshk I like watching bank robbery films and there are a lot of good ones out there, Charley Varrick and Dog Day Afternoon being two of the absolute best, so I was looking forward to this. But it has to be right at the other end of the scale. Somehow, the film makers have managed to pull off the near impossible, by making the biggest heist in Norwegian history boring. I can't think of a single interesting thing to say about this film. The perpetual on-screen captions telling us things like "five minutes earlier" add annoying to the formula. It's also completely devoid of humour. ***SPOILERS***Questions I'd like to ask Norwegians; are the police really that bumbling and disorganised? How can the town's whole police force be blocked in their station by a burning lorry? It just seems ridiculous. A question for the robbers; why did you ever think the glass would break so easily? The stupidity and lack of depth in the characters ruins any attempts to be realistic. A complete waste of time.

rightwingisevil I just can't believe how awfully this movie was made. The whole movie was like a joke. The screenplay was such a bad one with horrible scenario and plot, then the directing and the acting of this Nowegin movie were also so bad. If this movie was made just because the producers wanted to expose the poor organized Nowegin police system, the poor training and the poor, amateurish response to deal with an emergency, their police force was just too disgusting to be described with proper words; then it served pretty well and right on the money. If this movie was for the purpose to expose and to make laugh on those stupid morons who decided to rob the bank with such a poor plan, then again, you should consider this movie did a great job. If this movie was made for the above-mentioned two purposes, then it also served well by showing the Nowegin common citizens were so naive and so numb to almost anything happened around them. But for the movie itself, it was just a piece of worthless recount of a so-called 'based-on-a-true-story' incident. There was no realistic feeling of this whole movie, the police, the band robbers, they both failed so miserably, because they failed to deliver a suspenseful thrill in the least. Nowegin movies usually are exceptionally well scripted, directed and acted, but not this one. This is a very hollow, empty and void movie that had failed completely.

Filipe Bezerra I just finished seeing this one I found it very worthy to have a look at it.The story is told in a different way Hollywood uses to do and a different view of a action movie is kind of rare. OK, the camera is kind of shaky almost all the time but I've said it before: when there is a reason for it for me it's OK. Here the tension is printed by this moving camera and also by the fast editing - without this two elements is kind of difficult to make the film moving or interesting.The camera closure to the actors shows an intimacy to the characters, we see their expressions constantly and without this it would be difficult because there is no so many dialogues or "shot/reverse-shot" kind of scenes, the action took all the time needed.The point of views are interesting but sometimes confusing even with the subtitles indicating the time, not a big problem to me.Nokas has a nice and interesting kind of storytelling that is unusually welcome - at least for me.
