NOKAS

I dag har jeg vært på før-permiere på filmen om NOKAS-ranet. Norges-historiens største ran. Utbytte 54 mil. NOK. 51 mill. er fremdeles ikke funnet.

Today I was at a pre-viewing of the motion picture about the NOKAS-robbery. Norways biggest robbery. 54 million Norwegian Kr. 51 Mill. still not found.

Historien er jo kjent. David Toska har påtatt seg ansvaret for planleggingen, og han fikk med seg en gjeng med mer eller mindre intelligente mennesker til å gjennomføre ranet. Det skulle ta bare 8 minutter, inn, hent penger, ut - bort.

The story is know. David Toska has admitted to be the one who planned this, and he brought with him a bunch of more and less intelligent men to see this robbery through. It was supposed to take only 8 minutes, in, get the money, out - away.

Det skjedde bare et par ting man ikke regnet med. 1) Det vinduet som skulle knekke som en kjeks, var pansret og det tok mye lengre tid å komme inn. 2) Politiet starte å skyte 3) En politimann ble drept.

The thing was that a couple of non expected events happened. 1) The window that was supposed to break like chips, was armed, and it too a lot longer to get in 2) The police started to shoot 3) A policeman was killed.

Det er to inntrykk jeg sitter igjen med etter filmen. Det ene er at jeg ble utrolig sliten i hodet av å se den. Det var veldig rotete filmen, føltes som om hele filmen var filmet med håndkamera. Og jo da, jeg kan jo se hvorfor. Det skulle jo vise den hektiske situasjonen både ranere, politi og andre involverte var i, men det var slitsomt å se på i nesten 1,5 timer.

It is 2 impressions that are left now, when the movie is finished. One is that my head was tired by watching it It was filmed very shaky, like it was filmed with a handycam. And yes, I can see why. It was supposed to show the hectic situation robbers, police and other involved groups had. But it was bad to watch.

Det andre jeg reagerte på var hvor utrolig dumme Rogalendinger framstår i filmen. Dersom dette er en korrekt framstilling, så skulle man tro at alle, barn som voksne, barnevogner, busser, syklister. Ingen brydde seg om skuddvekslingen. Alle gikk rolig i mellom ranerne og politiet. Jo da, det er lett å si når man ser det på film. Men det stod menn med våpen og det sa PANG PANG.... ???

The other thing I felt was how stupid the people from this region was supposed to be. If this is a correct view of the situation, it seems like children as grown ups, women with babies, busses, bycyklists. No-one cared that there was bullets flying around them. Everyone was walking slowly between the police and the muggers. I know it is easy to say, when you are watching a movie, but men was standing there with guns and it said BANG BANG!!!

I salen sammen med oss satt selveste "David Toska". Dvs. skuespilleren som spilte David i filmen . Og han stilte seg tilgjengelig for spørsmål etter filmen. Jeg fikk litt vondt av han, da ingen stoppet for å snakke med han. Og sekunder senere ser jeg han gå nedover gaten....alene. Det var også første gang han så filmen.

In the cinema together with us was "David Toska". That is - the actor that played him in the movie. And he was available after the movie for questions. I felt kinda bad for him, when no-one stopped to talk to him, and seconds later I watched him walk down the streets alone. It was his first time watching the movie too.

Anbefaling.....hmm...usikker, men vil du vite hva som egentlig skjedd den dagen i 2004, ta en tur.

Recommendation....hmmm...not sure, bit if you want to know what went down that day in 2004, have a look.
