Max Manus - leader of the the irrepressible 'Oslo Gang', whose guerrilla war against occupying Nazi Germany helped free their country and establish Max as a living legend. Meticulously researched from true events, the film splendidly brings to life this epic chapter in World War II history. Stunning visual effects combine with an engrossing, absorbing and deeply moving storyline that will leave you in no doubt that this is one of the greatest war movies of all time.
