100 rating on this movie is a joke. The one stunt of using the same actor over a 12 to 15 year period is interesting but it doesn't make a good movie a great movie. At 2 hours and 40 minutes it requires a lot of patience. I found myself asking again and again "When does the shooting start?" Well it never did. It's a serious movie, about teenage angst and family problem, but more depressing than uplifting. I think it is worth seeing, but don't pass up American Hustle or Wolf of Wall Street to see this.

This is a very entertaining and interesting movie that I think should have gotten higher marks from the professional critics. If you like movies related to the aftermath of the Second World War and the impact it continues to have on the people who lived through it, you will find this move engrossing. The acting is great, plus there are many stunning shots of the Norwegian landscape. Perhaps most importantly, it raises a very interesting question: can lies evaporate and become truths? One of the best movies I have seen this year.
