CmnFlix - The Northman

Alec B

Eggers finally fulfills the promise he showed in his earlier work. A gorgeous and bold epic that both feels old fashioned (possibly ancient even) and excitingly new.

I do not see what the critics see in this. Even with great cinematography, it was not good.

valetino _P

What a great surprise! Immersed in the beautiful and creative shoots, I really loved this movie. This movie made me remember why I love movies this much and inspired me in my cinematography.

x

Chris H

Mediocre. Pretty basic story, nothing really surprising or departure from what you'd expect. Forgettable

x

Chuck Houck C

Almost like a classic Sword and Sorcerer film, but with no regard for the genre's conventions, which makes this film stand-out, and stand above.

x

Helen M

Beautiful story of revenge, very raw emotion, and an all around great Viking movie!! Alexander Skarsgård absolutely delivers in this and put so much into this and the supporting cast also holds up this captivating tale.

Pretty good photography, not much of a story, liked the trippy Norse mythology stuff could have made a bit more of it.

x

JK

Love all Robert's films. This one is no different.

x

Aidan B

While there quite as much action as is promised, "The Northman" is a relatively enjoyable film that makes good use of its leads.

x

Kesava Dharshan

The entire length of the movie is well made, thoroughly written, excellent costume designing, brilliant setting which feels true to when the movie was plotted and awesome visuals with gruesome fights. Really a great piece of art.

The Art Direction was amazing! It took me to the IX - X century

x

Emilliano Jr S

Brutal and barbaric. Outstanding revenge movie in years.

x

Mica L

Good actors, lovely visuals, however it is a bit all over the place which is to be expected for artsy flicks like this. Nice graphic effects. A bit too strange for my taste. Okay for a one-time watch even if only for Skarsgård

x

Angelo P

It looked good in the trailers but it was a bit convoluted.

x

Jonas S

The entire movie isn’t exactly engaging, however, the overall theme and final battle make this movie 5 stars for me. One of the better movies created in the past decade.

x

James S

The tale of Ameth. The precursor to Hamlet, bloody and action packed fitting of a viking movie. If you enjoy sword and sorcery movies and historical fiction you'll love this.

x

Luciano B

Amazing movie, the best viking movie i ever watched!

It's a miracle that this movie exists.

Héctor R

It's a masterpiece. One of the best movies of the last decade and definitely on of my all time favorites. It's not just a movie, it's an experience you cannot afford to miss.

x

Marcus S

Stunning. It’s an insta-classic.

A movie with a simple premise of revenge, but so masterfully crafted, with brilliant performances and creepy supernatural elements. A visceral, visual masterpiece that makes a simple story so entertaining. 9/10

x

Kenneth K

A great deal of ( how did they shoot that) moments. Beautifuly shot and well acted. Clean up of actors must have been a massive task. See it by all means!

x

Sean C

Bloody, he is sigma, very nice

x

Chinu D

It’s a really good movie.

The Northman is an epic revenge thriller, that explores how far a Viking prince will go to seek justice for his murdered father.

x

Mandalore T

I guess Vikings of TikTok are upset that there was no Payton Parish bullshit in this movie. That being said its still not very accurate to history but neither are most fantasy meets history movies.

x

This is a very disappointing, I want to see a viking film I want adventure fantasy This was total crap it now belongs where I put it in the bin

x

Jess D

Great cinematography but plot is seriously wanting.

x

user

Underrated revenge movie packed with interesting visuals and symbolism. Performances were great. People complain all the time about the lack of interesting one-off films that aren’t related to a recurring franchise.

x

Beatrice L

Absolute rubbish

x

Reef F

A strange attempt at a mix of a film, Hamlet and Vikings... none of which it achieves. Hiring good actors for a bad movie is like buying good bricks and trying to stick them together with cowshit... it falls apart at the foundation.

x

Pedro Henrique C

The only word that defines this movie is "Revenge"

x

Steve F

I absolutely loved this film!!!

x

Vito C

One of my favorite movies of all time. Epic, poetic, masterclass in acting.

x

Hello I

MOvie was bad tbh it sucqk.

x

Barbara C

Hard to follow, wooden acting, very disjointed and the cinematography can't resurrect the intense boredom and dismal mood of the film

x

Terry S

This film kicks ass all the way--Worth watching more than once.

x

Bubble B

What a bad movie holy cow

x

Oaklee D

An absolute brutal movie from Robert Eggers who I swear is a master at bringing out raw emotion from his cast. Along side some terrifyingly dark set pieces make this film a must watch.

x

Mike M

Absolute perfection

x

Pissed c

One of my Favorites, dang I love this director

x

Mary S

Absolutely stunning, visually authentic and atmospheric! Eggers is quickly becoming my favorite producer, director! P/s why he picked Nicole Kidman, I'll never understand. Her face isn't authentic lol she's looking distorted

x

user

It looked like a movie. The design was too apparent and the costumes were much too showy . The added Occult bullshit was just that and Nicole Kidman's Botoxed face looked so out of place, I have no idea what they were thinking.

x

Paulla

Beautifully filmed but I could have done without the mysticism and at times the actors spoke so quietly I struggled to follow what was being said.

x

Greta F

Slasher movie in disguise. Slow moving, repetitive, and just generally boring and silly.

x

Brenna C

The worst movie I have seen ever! Reviews on here as reliable as Temu reviews

x

Walter Z

A beautiful, bewildering movie that formed the basis of Shakespeare's Hamlet. Set in the 900's with an honor code that feels strange and alien. Brutal, beautiful and thought provoking. One of a kind

x

David W

A superbly acted and crafted vicereal, viking revenge epic. Not for the faint hearted but one hell of a fully committed movie with a uniquely singular vision.

x

Joshua M

Very good. Can be slow but the story needs to be explained.

x

Kelly K

Really enjoyed it, but it was jarring to see Nicole Kidman cast in this movie. Seemed anachronistic considering the time frame of the movie. Guess it was her newly lifted face. Seemed so out of place, but the rest were sensational!

x

Michael M

Not sure how many times I'd rewatch it but solid movie.

x

H E

Authentic and thrilling. Finally a new movie that isn’t filled with modern crap. It feels like you’re really there. Well done!

x

Larry K

Great revenge story but the first half was not exciting.

x

Adam B

Masterpiece. Spectacular.

x

Grant H

Bloody and intense, a Viking epic done by right by Robert Eggers!

x

Harrison H

This movie is absolutely terrible. The plot, the script, the acting, and the overall production are just so bad. With the big actors it has I had hopes that this would be good, but honestly there was nothing good about it

x

Daniel W

As usual, the critic got it wrong and audience got it right. I was expecting more. Usually if I like a movie I’ll watching it again somewhere down the line. It was ok but isn’t one I’ll ever watch again.

x

Korra N

Visually spectacular, brutal & superbly written, Robert Eggers' The Northman is the quintessential Viking epic.

x

user

It's not a time-period war movie. The action is minimal and very low quality. It is filled with visions and moments of supernatural intervention. Boring and anticlimactic. If you're looking for ancient warfare, this is not the movie for you

x

David M

The film is pompous, drary and lacks credibility. The list of participating celebs is quite long, but their performance is mostly irrelevant or weak. Better spend your time on other things.

x

Mark M

Such a strange movie.
