About This Movie

Izzat, released in 2005, dives into the gritty world of immigrant youth in Oslo, showcasing their struggles and choices. The atmosphere is heavy, almost suffocating, as it captures the stark realities these boys face. The pacing is relentless; you feel the urgency of their descent into the criminal underworld. Performances are raw, conveying a palpable sense of desperation and camaraderie among Wasim, Riaz, and Munawar. Themes of identity and morality are explored, though not always delicately. The violence escalates quickly, keeping viewers on edge, and the practical effects lend a certain grittiness that complements the narrative. It's not polished, but that’s part of its charm. There’s a distinct vibe that sets it apart from typical crime dramas.
