Unfortunately, the small family have to get the money themselves, as the state doesn't pay for that kind of experimental procedures. Ida has to get the money - and she got no other way than to steal them from the bank where her mother works...... developing the banks intense security.

Reviews
TrueJoshNight Truly Dreadful Film
SoftInloveRox Horrible, fascist and poorly acted
KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
Asad Almond A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.
mmlml Ida's Father has known to be a good climber, but in one event he fell down. A long period he has had no injuries of the fall, but suddenly he collapses and is hospitalized. He needs expensive surgery, but the Danish state does not pay for this kind of surgery. Ida, with her 2 pals Sebastian and Jonas sneak into a bank and try to steal money for the surgery. This is a heist film for children; although the 3 kids break into a bank, which is of course illegal, they act out of despair to prevent Ida's father from dying. The American remake "catch that kid" is not as good as this movie. Catch that kid is in my opinion a bad remake and my preference lies with this movie. This is original.
Verdios Klatret©ªsen(Catch That Girl) is really great movie! It's a 'happy' movie. I watched this movie in 'Puchon International Fantastic Film Festival(PiFan)' on July 12nd, 2003. There is Action + Adventure + Comedy + Thrill + Happy + Romance(cute kids' love Triangle!). You must see this movie. :)
BennyM Frankly, I was disappointed. The storyline was farfetched, the dialogue was entirely artificial, and the direction and camera work certainly did not live up to the trailer. Too centered around 'grown-up' themes for the kids, but aimed too much at teens to be a hit with the parents. The basic flaw, I think, is that 13-year-olds are too narrow a target audience. But it probably pleased the older part of Bubber's audience.
Malmir This movie is the absolutely perfect way to explain what a good movie is. It is a movie both for children and parents, and it is "timeless". I saw this movie before Ocean's Eleven and must admit that the actors in OE has class in advance, but the play of Klatretøsen is much more down-to-earth and moving. Why i say Ocean's Eleven, is the fact that these 2 movies has many things in common and Klatretøsen is THAT good ! that it can bear comparison with OE. The 3 youngsters play their part in a perfect way not to believe, compared to what we are used to in Denmark. The different cases of impossible acts, is handled in a way that you wouldn't belive from many young actors (and sometimes not even from the "old boys"). The story ? again it has things in common with Ocean's Eleven except for the reason of stealing the money and in Klatretøsen they need to climb up to the strongroom. The part in which the young people has to take care of Ida's younger brother, gives a fine element in the movie. Try to imagine how to rob a bank with a 2 year child with a nappy, on your arm :-).This movie can bear comparison with most "grown up" movie like MI2 and Ocean's Eleven. Yes i do believe it is THAT good. It is best to see it in a theater, as all the children in the room comments the movie and these comments will stay in your hearts forever :-).Regards Klavs.
