Burning

Burning (Børning, 2014) is Hallvard Bræin's Norwegian action comedy, and you can watch online on iFILM. Mechanic Roy lives for one thing — illegal street racing — and he'll push almost everything else aside for a turn behind the wheel.

The night before a big race, his 14-year-old daughter Nina shows up on his doorstep, a kid he has barely thought about. Distracted by the sudden family drama, Roy loses badly, and now he has only one way to rebuild his name. It's a wild cross-country dash from Oslo all the way to the North Cape at Norway's northern tip: first to reach the edge of the country is crowned the best driver. Nina talks her way into the passenger seat, turning the road trip into family therapy at full throttle. Anders Baasmo Christiansen stars as Roy.

The film topped the Norwegian box office and wears its Cannonball Run influence proudly — gags, chases and Arctic scenery over any real weight. Easy genre fun for car lovers who aren't after depth. Stream Burning (2014) online on iFILM.
