Leaves you wanting more.
My main feeling after seeing this movie, which covers the first few days of the second world war in Norway, is that I would like to see the movie continue all the way through the war.

While the performances are all great, and the locations used, the costumes, the recreations of Oslo and the soundtrack all contributed into making this an excellent movie – the highlight was how this story was told and the movie cut together. If you don’t like inter titles, you won’t like this movie. Every scene is introduced with location, date and time. And it works. I didn’t always pay much attention to it, but the moments it chooses all feel like real moments in the story, the important highlights of actions performed by the people involved.

I do appreciate that they also spread their focus a bit wider than just the royal family. The German diplomat was an interesting character, trying his best to get a handle on a terrible situation, and doing a good (though futile) job. The young men on the front line are portrayed in a way that really shows the horrors of war on an ultimately inexperienced crowd. But the main story here is that of the royal family, who is made to seem more human than any other depiction I have seen of them, including most documentaries. They are not people born into a stoic calm, but rather people born into a job that at its worst can be really difficult and pressing.

The critique of this movie is mostly about what it is not: a new perspective. Again, you follow the heroes of the war, the people we shouldn’t forget (and haven’t forgotten). While I completely agree with the people wanting something new, this has little to do with this movie.

The predicament of an old king when his country is invaded, complicated by the fact that he was the first democratically elected king in the history of his country
The film is slow and tries your patience, the Scandinavian slow motion in films is notorious, while Danish and Norwegian films usually are a bit more active, while Finnish films are the worst, although Russian films can be of the same trying sort. But here there is a vital story that is true and needs some meticulousness in its presentation, as it involves deep political problems and arguments and advanced diplomacy, that is not easily accomplished. Karl Markovicz as the German diplomat sparing no efforts and going at any length to save the peace for Norway, the land he has made his own with his child having been born there, makes the most impressing performance, and he has realized equally difficult and complicated parts on the screen before. Jesper Christensen is perfect as the King, and nothing is missing in a perfect rendering of the difficult part and predicament of this king, 68 at the time, who nevertheless lived on until 85. Anders Baasmo Christiansen is equally prominent as crown prince Olav, and perhaps the most interesting part of the film is the intimate realization and presentation of the close teamwork between father and son, the father keeping consistently cool in all his deep trouble, while the crown prince, so much younger with a fresh family, naturally is more impetuous, but although of very different tempers, they are still of the same rational mind. The film increases constantly in interest and gathering tension and drama as the historical events keep breaking in, but all the supporting characters are excellent and important also. Tuva Novotny makes a great impression as the crown princess Märtha, as does also Arthur Hakalahti as soldier Seeberg, who later joined in the Finnish fight against the Soviet invasion. In brief, this is an invaluable historical film, clearly presenting all the problematic delicacy and labyrinths of the issue; and the finale, when the King finally has to meet with the German diplomat, is an unforgettable highlight.
