10/10

Not often I give 10 stars.

Saw this at a sneak premiere at Bergen Kino tonight (29/10-24) presented by the director and main actor.. This movie tells the story about one of Norways most famous resistance fighter(s) and it does it as well as it could possibly do.

I'm not a person who let my emotions take the best of me but this movie hit me quite hard.

I struggled with not crying in many scenes and the whole movie is a rollercoaster of how a war movie can and should be.

It's based on Gunnar "Kjakan" Sønstebys life during WW2 and the German occupation of Norway.

As a veteran myself, I was stunned by the realism, the choices they had to make and also the moral aspects of the movie.

Is it okay to kill one nazi individual when the consequences are ten or more other Norwegians killed by the nazis as revenge?

Just watch this movie! Truly one of the best Norwegian movies ever made.

And that includes the original "9 liv".

The best Norwegian war movie ever!!!
