Very enjoyable, 18 June 2006

I can understand that some Danish viewers don't like this Norwegian version of an originally Danish film. But then again, it wasn't made for them. I find this silly little film quite amusing (the best one in the series), and the plot has been transplanted into a Norwegian setting in a very convincing way. The use of locations is a treat. Not having seen the original, I wonder how the Danes made the train sequence work - Denmark is such a flat country that it's hard to imagine a Danish train being pulled by gravity ... Anyway, let's thank the Danes for making the Norwegian Olsenbanden films possible! And let's thank Aud Schønemann and Carsten Byhring - they steal the show as always!
