Featured review
This was a movie that had many emotions, action and it just delivered a very good message about how justice should be shared and distributed. About how miners didn't get so much money, and how badly they were treated. This story takes place in Sulitjelma, Norway, were a miner called Konrad and his team had to stop their boss and start to investigate of low money payment. From my point of view, this was a good movie, that was well done, it was just so much better than Narvik from last year, that was just some kind of lousy war-romance movie that just shouldn't have been made. This was something that warmed my heart, something that made me think, and it was very entertaining. The whole crew that works together in the mines, it is not so clearly at the first sight but after a while this team-power looks very real and very organic, something that makes you feel home with the characters, and the actors did play very well, it was many Norwegians and many Swedish people, and I don't want to be mean but from my point of view Swedish people are playing more realistic and organic, like in here, but of course, the Norwegians played very well too. Good dialogues but sometimes it was annoying when they were saying a name too much, like basically in every sentence. Annoying things like that didn't happen much but sometimes, they could work on the dialogues in some places. The music was great, very Norwegian and very old-style, it did really fit the movie. When the action came, the suspense was on, like falling mines and fight scenes. This movie did also serve some inside facts about how to act in a mine, and what you should do when danger is coming. Concluding, this was a well told story, with some good music, plot, action sequences and high, valuable message. If you like war movies or a good drama documentary, I can really recommend this one.
