The transport of the Norwegian gold and silver which started on the day Norway got occupied by the German war machine April 9th 1940 is an amazing story, but the story seem to be over dramatized.

The film is well made, with solid effects and good quality, and this is in fact the mot expensive Norwegian move made for streaming ever, made by Viaplay for their streaming services all across.

A solid A-team of Norwegian actors are doing well in the movie, but it's sad that a couple of them, especially Axel Bøyum is acting this as it was a comedy. Why?

Well, that said. Apart from this the film is rather entertaining, and it does what it should; Make you read about the true story.

This is how all thrillers should be. Haven't see such an awesome action packed thriller in a long time. Was kept at the edge of my seat the whole time. Not a second of dull moment. The acting, the back ground score, all aspects of the movie I found fabulous. Even though watched it in a non English language , still was able to enjoy it very much using the subtitles. In this action packed thriller there are also some elements of comedy, A treat for the whole family. After watching this, war movies have become my new favourite. Kudos to all those involved in the film, the story, the direction, the acting, the music , the war scenes, all excellent. War time imagery was created to perfection, looked so real. Looking forward to more such movies from the makers of this film. Truly a movie that deserves tons of accolades. Excellent, Bravo, and thank you.

I love a good war movie and this is one of them! Based on a true story...

The story: Norwegians have to safeguard their countries biggest gold supply from when the Nazis invade their country at the very start of World War II. Will they be able to flee with the gold transport to Sweden before the Nazis take hold of it? THAT's the contineous CLIFFHANGER...

The good; I would like to award it 7,5 stars. It's contineous suspense and solid acting performances and a tightknit direction with beautiful photography are to be thanked for that.

Any bad? The leading actor isnt the most charismatic Norwegian actor. The story furthermore does not tread new roads in the war movie genre. It's kind of a formula picture, but a really solid one.

The story sounds risky as a movie but rather early in the film solid characters are established and as much drama and fun as possible is generated from the events that actually took place. The best bits are, rather unlikely, entirely true, like the presence of the poet.

The suspence is constantly turned up as the reality of invasion becomes more and more serious. The action parts are spectacular and very well directed, always cranking up the emotional investment and describing civilian angst in a nation that hadn't seen war for over 100 years.

This was an very enjoyable movie, only held back by some slighter predictabilities with character developments.
