Loved this show. Although filled with some stereotypes, I love the fact this show was filmed in Norway, with Norwegian crew and actors. It's refreshing to see other countries providing a great alternative to "the machine" and mass-produced Hollywood crap. We need more countries doing this and utilizing the Internet as an avenue of streaming like Netflix did in this case. NRK, the TV station/network that produced it did a solid job on this and moved outside of its comfort zone on this project. It's legitimate, entertaining and with great scenery and acting. Although the language and sub-titles throws you off at times, it all comes together well. Even the other Norwegian actors did a solid job. If you love mob movies, mafia stuff and "little Steven", this one is for you. Enjoy.

This is the Film of the year! No specials effects and CG and just a nice vibe to it. I found this film to be profoundly good. MUCH, MUCH better than I ever expected. Hoffman always delivers and with great UK talent. I was truly dumbfounded. Writing is good, plot is solid, Acting is fantastic, story line is great and the best movie score/soundtrack I have heard in recent history. It is fairly long but goes well with a cold one on a weekend. I hope it gets huge distribution in the US! It's a fun,uplifting, feel-good, strange and yet inspiring film. To be based on a true story and deliver this is impressive. I will tell everybody about this one. Watch it.
