Gulltransporten

This is how all thrillers should be. Haven't see such an awesome action packed thriller in a long time. Was kept at the edge of my seat the whole time. Not a second of dull moment. The acting, the back ground score, all aspects of the movie I found fabulous. Even though watched it in a non English language , still was able to enjoy it very much using the subtitles. In this action packed thriller there are also some elements of comedy, A treat for the whole family. After watching this, war movies have become my new favourite. Kudos to all those involved in the film, the story, the direction, the acting, the music , the war scenes, all excellent. War time imagery was created to perfection, looked so real. Looking forward to more such movies from the makers of this film. Truly a movie that deserves tons of accolades. Excellent, Bravo, and thank you.

The transport of the Norwegian gold and silver which started on the day Norway got occupied by the German war machine April 9th 1940 is an amazing story, but the story seem to be over dramatized.

The film is well made, with solid effects and good quality, and this is in fact the mot expensive Norwegian move made for streaming ever, made by Viaplay for their streaming services all across.

A solid A-team of Norwegian actors are doing well in the movie, but it's sad that a couple of them, especially Axel Bøyum is acting this as it was a comedy. Why?

Well, that said. Apart from this the film is rather entertaining, and it does what it should; Make you read about the true story.

Gulltrasnpoten presents a thrilling narrative centered around the historical transport of Norway's gold reserve amidst the chaos of World War II. Jon Oigarden delivers a compelling performance as Fredrik Haslund, leading the charge to safeguard the nation's wealth from the encroaching German forces. Supported by a strong ensemble cast including Ida Elise Broch and Sven Nordin, the film navigates the perilous journey with tension and suspense.

Visually, the movie captures the intensity of the era with impressive cinematography and meticulous attention to detail. The Norwegian landscape serves as a stark backdrop to the unfolding drama, enhancing the authenticity of the wartime setting. Directorial choices effectively convey the urgency of the mission, keeping audiences on the edge of their seats throughout.

Despite its historical basis, "Gulltrasnpoten " occasionally takes liberties with the events, amplifying the drama to cinematic proportions. While this may detract from the overall accuracy, it adds to the entertainment value, offering a thrilling ride for viewers. The inclusion of comedic elements provides a welcome contrast to the tension, adding depth to the characters and their interactions.

Overall, the movie succeeds as a gripping war thriller, offering audiences a compelling glimpse into a lesser-known chapter of history. While some performances may falter and dramatic embellishments abound, the film delivers an engaging cinematic experience that resonates long after the credits roll.

This movie, about the true story of the effort to evacuate the entire Norwegian gold reserve out of Norway during the German invasion of Norway in World War II to keep the gold out of Germany's hands, is a fantastic docudrama movie!

It is far from flawless. Some of the supporting actors give pretty mediocre performances, the dialogue is a bit on the simple side, and it is clear the movie draws inspiration from others-at times it feels a little like a wannabe. That said, there is still a lot to love! I am a sucker for cinematic movies that lean into cinematography, sound design, score, and effects-and Gold Run really nails those elements, especially for a Norwegian production. Plus, it is based on a true story, which stirs up a bit of national pride and reminds us how lucky we are today-85 years later.

This movie is not perfect, but its visuals, sound, and true story stand out. Despite flaws, it captures a proud moment in Norwegian history and stirs national spirit.

It's a primarily fictional David and Goliath story of the historical transport of Norway's gold reserve away from the advancing German army in April-May 1940.

Fredrik Haslund (Jon Oigarden), the secretary of the Labor Party's parliamentary group in Norway and a historical figure, leads the effort to get 50 tons of gold out of Oslo to British ships for transport to England. His sister, Nini (Ida Elise Broch), also becomes deeply involved.

The film follows Haslund and the gold as they go north narrowly ahead of the Germans. Other primary film characters are the real-life poet Nordahl Grieg (Morten Svartveit), Bank Manager Andreas Lund (Gard B. Eidsvold), Major Bjorn Sunde (Elvind Sander), and two fictional ordinary men, Odd Henry (Sven Nordin) and bank clerk Ingvar Berge (Axel Boyum). Major Otto Stoltmann (Anatole Taubman) leads the German pursuit.

"Gold Run" is mostly a fun action picture, with humor provided by Odd Henry and Ingvar Berge, who offer contrasting perspectives throughout. Haslund is meticulous to a fault, much to the dismay of Major Sunde. As expected, Norwegian creativity prevails over dogged German efforts.

"Gold Run" exaggerates events and lifts tension beyond the believable too often for my satisfaction. Thus, it's entertaining but far from historical accuracy.
