Not sure why anyone has anything good to say about this movie. I was stoked to go see it based on the trailer, but it was pretty bad. Slow, poor story development... a poor story to begin with, and they didn't do anything to make it any better. it's been a long time since I was so disappointed afer watching a movie. I wouldn't waste your money folks.

The details in this movie are great. Straightforward story line to understand. Many action packed scenes. Good acting overall. An absolute great movie to watch.

At least from an ambition standpoint, Eggers’ devotion pays off in heaps. The Northman offers a lot to enjoy in what is a lot of movie. It features both see-it-to-believe-it “fuck yeah!” gruesomeness in its 10th Century tale and the kind of historical and mythical attention to detail to be expected from Eggers

Perhaps Eggers has lost some of the horrible intimacy we savoured in his earlier work. But he offers us compensation in scope, intensity and pure bloody ferocity.

Make it your destiny to see this blood-soaked odyssey along the edge of the world as soon as possible.
