Postman vs Plumber. Norwegian voices.

Staff Review

david reino :
Coming from a reviewer who does not understand Norwegian, this film does not make a lot of sense, but even then, the general plot is quite apparent from observation alone. An insult between a "plumber" and a postman quickly escalates into a gunfight, and so the majority of the film is basically a fight scene between these two key characters. That said, the other aspects of the film besides the story are quite average - the animation and camera work suffer from bumps and jitters, and the action constantly shifts in and out of focus. If there are any strong(er) suits of this film, they are the visual effects (the extent of which includes a reasonable fog/rain mask), and the sound effects during the fight scene, which sound as if they have been lifted from a video game soundtrack. If you enjoy the "two-guy" shooter films of this type, then you might give it a watch, if not for amusement alone.
