Andrew Stadler
Best Norwegian Thriller I've Seen All Year Entertainingly twisty thriller about a corporate headhunter who moonlights as an art thief, and the big heist that goes a little too far.

Norwegian Ninja
In 1984 high-ranking Norwegian diplomat Arne Treholt was tried and convicted of acting as a spy on behalf of the Soviet Union. But what if the courts got it wrong? What if the case against him was a sham? What if, dare we consider, Treholt was not a spy at all but a patriot of the highest order and the leader of a secret ninja force created by King Olva? A ninja force locked in a secret battle against all who would challenge Norwegian sovereignty? A fictionalized account of the most notorious political scandal in Norwegian history, Norwegian Ninja is a deliciously tongue-in-cheek spoof of the Cold War spy movie, with added ninja action. Because, as everyone knows, every story can be made better with ninjas. Blending historical events and actual newsreel footage of the Treholt affair with his own less-than-historical elements, writer-director Thomas Cappelan Malling creates the Rushmore of ninja films, a film that wryly questions just how truthful the truth really is. And then sends a ninja to punch the truth in the face.
Ragnarok
Same Day as Theaters. An archaeologist with an obsession for the strange becomes fixated on a Viking funeral ship with a mysterious inscription. When a link between this relic and an equally puzzling cave of bones is discovered, he embarks on an adventure, journeying to the abandoned “No Mans Land” in Norway’s North. His academic pursuits quickly turn into a fight for survival when a powerful and long-dormant evil lurking in the depths of the cave awakes. The expedition inadvertently stumbles upon the horror at the heart of the Norse apocalypse myth Ragnarok, and time is against them to save themselves and the world from the monster they have brought out of the depths…
Into The White
APRIL 27, 1940 -- Two enemy fighter planes are shot down. After crash-landing, the stranded survivors -- both German and British crew members -- are forced to seek refuge in an isolated cabin to withstand the harsh conditions in the mountainous wilderness of Norway. These enemies of war must band together... their survival depends upon it.
Escape
Ten years after the Black Death has ravaged the lands, a poor family is ambushed by a pack of merciless killers on a desolate mountain pass. Nineteen-year-old Signe is the lone survivor. Held hostage and facing a fate worse than death, Signe manages to flee her captors, but her escape does not go unnoticed. Now the chase is on.
Jackpot (Arme Riddere)
Based on a story by Jo Nesbø (HEADHUNTERS), Norway's leading crime writer, JACKPOT is a darkly comic, Coen Brothers-inspired riff on greed, betrayal and (dis)honor among thieves, with a Nordic twist. When four coworkers at a Christmas tree factory - timid Oscar, tough guy Thor, congenial Tresko, and unhinged Billy - win a big payday from a soccer betting pool, allegiances quickly dissipate and a vicious battle over how to divide the money ensues.
O'Horten (Subtitles)
The moment the train leaves the station without engineer Odd Horten (Bard Owe) aboard, he realizes the path ahead is a journey without printed timetables and well-known stations. Horten has been forced to retire after 40 years of traveling a very stable rail, and the platform does not feel like a safe place anymore. His orderly, solitary existence is about to give way to a future of unlikely adventures and puzzling dilemmas: will Horten ever travel by plane? Will he finally sell his prized boat? How does Horten end up in a pair of women's red high-heeled shoes? Will he survive a nighttime drive with a blindfolded man at the wheel? O'HORTEN is Bent Hamer's wonderfully skewed view of the human condition, and gives us that somewhat absurdist vision with great warmth, a little melancholy and universal appeal. © 2007, 2009 BulBul Film AS.
