Watch Izzat For Free

I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

Sorry, this movie sucks

Really Surprised!

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

I saw this on Norwegian television again tonight and I must say - this is probably the best action flick Norway has produced.It's tense, it's fast, and it's very well directed. Exciting from start to finish, and a good plot.I love the end, when the main character tells us about the father - just like the film started.Creds to the team behind this one - a must see. I also love that they have used music from the Norwegian ban Gluecifer a lot, perfect music for this action flick.I hope we can make some more movies like this in the future.

Izzat is a realistic portrait of the gang culture among immigrant children in Oslo in the 80-90's. The movie portraits the destiny of Wasim, Riaz and Munawar, three young boys growing up in Oslo's east side at the time. They find school hopeless and boring when they get drawn to the environment in East Side Crew -a gang ruled by the hardboiled brothers Sadiq and Khalid. It starts with petty theft, but soon develop into drug dealing, abuse and murder. The scriptwriters, both immigrants, grew up in Oslo east and observed the environment at close range and the director capture the story in an raw way. The movie also explains the big gap between cultures and why the gang environment could flourish the way it did. Izzat became a big hit in the movies and have been praised among the audience and critics.

Norway is a country where you don't very often see good action movies because of its need in resources and the fact that our directors haven't really had the talent for it. This is definitely an exception where we get to see realistic gun fighting scenes which where shot from the older sections of Oslo city. The movie sets a new standard for Norwegian action moviesIzzat starts out in the Pakistanian gang environment in Oslo in the early 80's and gives a realistic picture on how they played out their role in organized crime. Director Ulrik Imtiaz Rolfsen grew up in the environment and used people he knows in his research for the film and that gives us a very realistic picture on how things where. I really enjoyed it and hope there is more to come !

The fact that people have not learned that they can not see a Norwegian movie with high expectations is incredible. If you come expecting something good, or great, you should go for a different movie. That said.As for the acting; there was little to no passion shown by the actors. This however portrays well the environment the "gangsters" come from as well as pre-dating the show from todays date. Poor acting, but it worked in a very weird way.The retro view on things was quite nice and it really made the experience of the movie into something that I enjoyed.The story is simple. Gangster, drugs and killing. During most of the film I was having flashbacks from "Menace II Society".All in all, it felt like reproduction of most gangster movies, put into a new cultural setting and downsizing the actors and cinematography. Decent movie, not great, but over my expectations.
