Maestro...
14 December 2001
What starts out as an okay entry in the long running Olsen-Banden series that started in 1968, emerges as one of the best, with a climactic heist in the Royal Danish Theatre with our gang blasting and drilling their way through the theatre to obtain the usual McGuffin (The Red Briefcase), set to the tunes of Kuhlau´s "Elverhøj", a cinematic moment of sheer genius, conceived and executed to perfection. That´s actor/director Asbjørn Andersen ("Reptilicus") in a cameo (his last) dressed as King Christian IV of Denmark. ***
