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 abruptly
I recommend the movie only if you attending director/actor classes and want a point of reference
