Version of Operasjon Cobra (1978)

User Reviews

Inept.

This teen-oriented action thriller marked stuntman Lasse Spang Olsen´s directing debut, but he fared a lot better with his second movie "I Kina spiser de hunde". Based on a novel by Anders Bodelsen, this has been filmed once before, as "Operasjon Cobra", in 1978. In both movies, a bunch of kids try to foil a terrorist attack, but Ola Solum´s Norwegian version was far superior to this amateurish mishmash. No cliché is avoided, and Olsen´s stuntwork is just as heavy-handed as his direction. *½ (of ****)
