I think this movie had a good start, and the actors were decent. I'm positively surprised by John Carew's (as Benny Fransen) acting, and he did not steal the show. Also, the actors' classic references were a nice touch to the movie. Anyway, I think the story evolved quite slow, and after the first one-third part, I expected it to get a little more exciting, but it kind of repeated itself in a predictable way. This was disappointing. Generally, the scenes were ok, but quite long and non-dynamic. I noticed that this movie had a bigger budget than several other Norwegian movies, but overall, this movie did not for-fill my expectations as a good The Olsen Gang movie.

I have to re-watch the old ones now! This was bad!!

Really nothing special... i'm rewatching the old ones now and they are so much better. Shouldn't have been made. Hermansen, and Valborg actors were the worst! And John Carew is nothing in this movie.i was expecting this to be a flop and i was right. Nothing beats the good old Olsenbanden movies with the best actors! Also the story wasn't special at all. So i hope it won't be any more of these re-made movies. I think Anders Baasmo did quite a good job as egon. But the story was also quite boring i'm afraid. I think they really should stop this now and not make anymore of these pointless movies.

Warning: Spoilers
There is nothing else to say about this then a totaly discrace. And a film that should never have been made.
A film where you have the biggest flopps and people you cant even call a actor like ex fotballer "John Carew. How in the heck is it possible to cast him to play "Benny" this was played by Sverre holm a many with a long acting career and what does John Carew have ZERO nothing just fotball player. Anyhting else from this just look plain stupid so a movie that should never been made. Letss keep the great olsenbanden movies that was made from 1969-1999 and not destroy what they have done and forget this film.
