That Valkyries face, suddenly appearing, startled tf out of me.

i can’t wait for this either! the trailer popped up on my home screen the day it came out and i clicked simply because i had nothing else to watch; needless to say, it was on my most anticipated of this year list by the time it was over. fun fact: this is based off of the old norse legend of prince amleth which was the direct inspiration for shakespeare’s hamlet!

Aha, that's really cool, thanks for sharing! Yes, I felt the same way about this, assuming it was going to be yet another boring, low-budget historical drama, and was blown away by the cast, the acting and the story! We have one last bottle of mead hidden away for a special occasion, and I think this movie might be just that! 😁

Eggers doesn’t disappoint.

Fun review. However, Willem Dafoe is an incredible artist!

[@NerdSafari]

Yes, he really is! I was just making a stupid joke that I thought his name was "William", not "Willem", as we've heard so many people make that mistake with the recent Spider-Man movie! 😂 He hosted Saturday Night Live recently and was hilarious on there, even if he always looks somewhat scary! 😱

The same man that directed The Witch [2016] directed this. Anya Taylor-Joy is in both films.

*R rating* *2 hours and 16 minutes* IndieWire’s Chief Film Critic David Ehlrich wrote, _“All you need to know about The Northman_ - _a $90 million viking revenge movie directed by Robert Eggers_ - _is that every single moment of it feels like a $90 million viking revenge movie directed by Robert Eggers.”_ While IndieWire Executive Editor of Film Kate Erbland said the film had her _“flipping between ‘HELL YES’ and ‘OH NO’ with startling regularity,”_ Deputy Managing Editor Ryan Lattanzio felt the film perhaps didn’t push things far enough _(“needed more incest”)._ Journalist Jack King, whose work as appeared in GQ and Vulture, noted, _“It’s a crying shame that THE NORTHMAN has been criminally mishandled because it’s precisely what blockbuster cinema should aspire to, and still has the potential to be._ _Formally audacious but welcoming; easy to follow but not, simply, a guided tour. Five big ol’ stars. Björk!”_ Unilad entertainment editor Cameron Frew called “The Northman” an _“incredible”_ movie, tweeting, _“Like, fall-to-your-knees, ‘HOW the HELL did they do this?’ good.”_ The _“breathtakingly gnarly”_ film _“deserves to be a massive hit.”_ Rolling Stone senior critic David Fear compared “The Northman” to a Frank Frazetta painting. _“I give it 5/5 cawing ravens,”_ he tweeted. Variety reporter Tomris Laffly added that the film has _“stunning choreography”_ and is _“gruesome in ways I still can’t fully believe.”_ While the movie is _“not without its setbacks,” “The Northman” is still the “kind of film whose existence feels like a miracle today.”_ Fandango’s Erik Davis wrote, _“Robert Eggers’ ‘The Northman’ is hauntingly visceral & super transfixing._ _You definitely won’t be able to take your eyes off this blood-soaked revenge tale._ _Alexander Skarsgård is a BEAST & ferocious throughout. Nicole Kidman has a couple scenes that floored me. Daring & devilish.”_ Previously, Academy Award-winning director Alfonso Cuarón praised the _“very complicated”_ film that gives the _“impression almost of intoxication”_ for viewers. _“You are there, and you’re breathing with those actors,”_ Cuarón told The New Yorker in a profile on Eggers’ practical and historically accurate filmmaking techniques. kzbin.info/www/bejne/oXmnfZVjrJigopY

*"THE NIGHT BLADE FEEDS"* _Blood and fury. From a tangle of visions, prophecies and mirages emerges a fairly straightforward tale, but one told with as much grace as gleeful brutality._ _Maybe a little wonky on its feet in the early goings (one particular cut in the first ten minutes is extremely jarring, but in a way that might be purposeful if I stir on it a little bit) and admittedly the occasional spotty accent work (and the fact that these vikings are speaking, you know, English) makes this somewhat less of a triumph of period detail than Eggers' previous two movies, even if it still clearly has been painstakingly researched and faithfully executed in all other areas._ _But dear god, once this thing gets going it really does not let up._ _An endless parade of black metal album cover worthy imagery, incredibly visceral violence and an intoxicatingly grim atmosphere that I can't believe is something that is being put on thousands of screens in 2022, let alone one that a major studio is backing._ _Needless to say any fears about this being a compromised product based on that one article can be put to rest (even if it is obvious there is probably a 160 minute cut of this out there somewhere)._ _One of the first things Alexander Skarsgard does is throw an axe at a guy on a horse, before biting his ears off and howling at the moon like a wolf. And Universal is reportedly banking on this being a hit. Good luck."_ ~ REINIER_ZOUW
