Lightdeossk Captivating movie !

ShangLuda Admirable film.

thechocolatebird The wigs were very distracting. Fake fur on shoes, bags, blankets and clothing were very noticeable. Some scenes were good even with low budget. If you ignore the side characters, the four main characters including the only female had decent acting skills. The plot is simple and not overly complicated and is a well-worn but good story-line about the good defeating the bad despite many setbacks.The cinematography shots were done well despite the use of poor filters in a location that does not resemble Norway in summertime. They did the best they could without real snow. I loved the scene with the dead souls and its use of real humans instead of CG duplicated humans.Raw edged (not in good way) but authentic. Could have been a Hollywood blockbuster if there were more attention paid to details.

omni_purch I couldn't believe how bad this was! Gee... copy the effects of 300 and we have a hit - NOT! Didn't make it past 10 minutes (which included credits, or should I say miscredits). Gargling with Drano would be preferable to watching this!!Oh Crap, IMDb wants 10 lines of drivel to post! (Plus all my INFO, first born, etc. No way!So, here's more crap to fill....I couldn't believe how bad this was!I couldn't believe how bad this was!I couldn't believe how bad this was!I couldn't believe how bad this was!

Luis Filipe dos Reis Peres I really do not understand the bad reviews surround this movie. It all depends on your mindset i guess. If you're going into this comparing it to the usual Hollywood stuff, well OK, we can see this is not exactly Lord of the Rings but that isn't exactly a bad thing. In fact...if you love B-movies, i can guarantee this is the "Lord of the Rings" of B-Movies ! It's definitely the most fun independent fantasy film i've ever seen.To begin with, the plot might be a bit crazy, but it's very original because it tries to stand apart from the usual lack of imagination we see nowadays coming from Hollywood. Sometimes it works, others not really but who cares, it's a B-movie people, it does not need to make sense, it only needs to be fun and filled with adrenaline, and this movie is all that.Also the design is fantastic most of the time. OK, it's all CGI and it's evident that it is CGI. So... ? Do you mean that in the big blockbuster Hollywood movies you don't notice the backgrounds are also CGI ?! Really ?!! Besides this is not a big blockbuster movie although sometimes manages to feel like an incredible epic piece of work. The scenery looks amazing most of the time, the whole graphic look is beautiful throughout and as far as "photoshop" movies go, this is the best one since the french "Vidoq" a few years ago. A lot more fun than 300 or Sin City combined because it does not take itself seriously too and that makes it work.The plot is well paced, some fun twists, lots of diversity in the "road movie" locations and everything a fantasy fan can ask for if he just relaxes and leaves the brain out the door for a couple of well spent hours. As for the racism or religious offenses claim some people mention...you must be joking. This is not exactly a great adaptation of Norse sagas but it manages to capture some of their best pulp-fiction plot points and it does not need to be an accurate study in mythology to work perfectly.If you love B-movies and you love fantasy don't hesitate, go get this movie. After i've seen my torrent copy, i went to amazon and ordered the 3d blu-ray which i cannot wait to see.Ignore the bad hype. Do not compare this to Hollywood stuff because, actually in some things its a lot better than what comes out of American giant blockbusters most of the times. At least it tries to do something different and be as original as it can without fear of loosing audiences.Oh, and by the way this has buckets of blood in it. If you love gory battle scenes this is the movie to check out. Although they are all totally cartoon and so they are completely harmless and fun , which is exactly what the movie is asking for.I can hardly believe a movie with this look was entirely shot in Malasia !! Just by this it should be praised because Vikingdom looks fantastic and i though this was some kind of independent European production shot in Norway or something. It's not, it's an oriental movie. Amazing.The only thing to me that is really bad in it are some castle interiors which really look like square rooms with not much personality or design in it and i don't understand this as most of the movie looks beautiful. Perhaps production run out of money to build more stuff.Nevertheless ignore the bad hype, this is a great little B-movie, with tons of fun, great action one-to-one fighting scenes, a vast epic feel sometimes and the best Thor ever put to screen.If you love independent low budget fantasy cinema go for it. It's really the best out there and i hope they make a sequel very soon.

Dibiy Hendriady When i watched a movie, usually question comes up such what will happen next, or who the killer is? But in this movie silly question comes up.. Like why the kungfu expert that beats down many viking soldiers twice of his size...could be captured and place in a wooden box with a loose rope and cannot works his way out. What is he doing on the northern Europe after all, the writer must liked 13th warrior film so much. Then, why a red blood sun light is only affecting one area of the battle and not the other? Also, what is told as a guard dog doesn't have the appearance of a dog... More like an amputated dinosaur. Thin clothes wear on cold weather? Not to mention cgi effect when the dead father appears to leave message not to forget him... He appears on a blink way like the 70's kungfu movie way. Also the main character doesn't have expressions as well...flat voice trough out the movie.. I gave it 2 point just because i watched it till the end with a headache
