Review of Bunch of Five

Bunch of Five (1998)
4/10
Not so good...
10 November 2002
A little mess of a movie, going from realistic and gritty to pretty ridiculous, all in couple of minutes. And back again. Big shot Yugo mobsters/drug dealers in Oslo are sending 13-14 year old kids to collect dope and beat the shi. out of some guy. No, really :)

Needless to say, from that moment on the movie has about as much credibility as your average politician. For a guy born in Oslo the director/writer is impressively clueless about its mafia elements. Massively overrated here in Norway, but thats the case with most of the urban movies made over here.

Soundtrack is cool and acting is so-so, with kids often delivering better than grown ups.
