why the critics are so unfavorable??? Possibly some other agenda at play. A++ for effort.

good Jon Foo deserves a better role , the stunts are really well done, the special effects are wayyyy overdone and some of the set pieces the dog-monster is a pathetic joke look like they were made in 4th grade arts n crafts class. Sorry 4th grade, you deserve better .If you consider that the entire movie was filmed in the tropics never in a million years would anyone guess that on a low budget with some surprisingly good CGI and scenes, it might be worth watching. But audiences come to the theatre with expectations about performance and quality that this movie can't meet.Pro - It has some good moments Con - overall though, meh

shortcomings, Vikingdom is exciting, creative, and dark—and well worth a few hours of your time.now that how you write a Movie Review.grow up kids

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.

purcell's acting skills.Also it was a very cool movie.I have learned a lesson and am suggesting you to learn it with this wonderful journey.

wielded swords axes arrows to have the martial arts expert slave to a hero great touch in movie only thing i disliked is the Johnathon Ross girlfriend style hair Thor had lol bright pinkish red lol that did give me a chuckle but in all the only down point in the film a great watch even the Mrs watched it fantastic

Movie out of the Christian Ethos, which makes this stand out when you see it for what it is, a story set in ANOTHER Mythic circle, that of the Norse Gods. It's done in the same vein as that classic 'Jason and the Argonauts'-- so the story is being told in the manner of a Mythic Tale or 'Epic Fable'. There's a little 'stiffness' involved in the dialogue and the characterizations, but it doesn't go into 'stupid' or 'cheap'.Three-- The special effects aren't in the range of the Multi-million dollar Hollywood productions...but what they managed was in character and fitting to the story. I especially like the 'Hel' sequence.All in all, This is a Good, Entertaining fantasy movie of decent length in the 'Epic Quest' category. An extra star for the respectful treatment it gives us of the Norse Mythic Ethos.Weirdly enough, this movie is best for a nice, quiet Sunday Night.

classical like Conan's. There, the viewer can find what great and passionate stories usually tell: intrigue, treason, love, a well based background story, turnover points and a compelling cause that matters to the audience. So, if you allow yourself to step back from high expectations about acting and setting, you'll may be able to have a great time. I did have, and I sincerely wish you likewise.Cheers!

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.
