Ragnarök

I really enjoyed Ragnarok for the first two seasons, and even season 3 wasn't that bad until that last episode. Wow. What an awful, awful ending. Overall, I thought Ragnarok was so much better than I thought it would be. It's a really good adaptation of Norse myth and the battle between Gods and Giants. While it may start off a little slow for some, stick with it because it picks up in a hurry. You get used to the dubbed edit pretty quick or if it bothers you you can watch with subtitles. I prefer dubbed. Each season is only 6 episodes long so you can binge through it pretty fast. If you're a fan or supernatural or sci-if then you should give this show a chance, you will not be disappointed...until the ending that is.

I've watched two episodes so far, and will continue to watch. So far, I like it. It is different. Yeah, I'm a sucker for the superhero thing, but I'm quitting more and more series because I am starting to have enough of the U.S. patriotic clichés, the over the top drama and overacting. I enjoy these young Scandinavian actors, the slow way the story is unfolding, the lack of hysteria. It keeps me curious. The reviewers complaining about the environmental topic make me laugh. If you don't believe in it, just treat it as any other fantasy-topic. Aliens. Space zombies. Unicorns... It is a story. I am an atheist and I'm not whining about the presence of gods or supernatural stuff in this serie. That would be silly. All in all, give Ragnarok a try. Acquire a new taste...

Edit: Finished season 1 now. It only got better!

Between the beautiful scenery in almost every shot and the clean and efficient pace of the story, it's hard not to like in my opinion. The story flows so well, if in Hollywood hands we'd be bogged down with lame sideplot after sideplot that leads nowhere. I'm halfway through the season but had to write a review of how surprisingly great its been so far.

Ragnarok was so much better than I thought it would be. It's a really good adaptation of Norse myth and the battle between Gods and Giants. It's a little over the top but remains surprisingly entertaining all the while delivering a strong pro-environmentalist message. While it may start off a little slow for some, stick with it because it picks up in a hurry. It's a refreshing take on Norse mythology. You get used to the dubbed edit pretty quick or if it bothers you you can watch with subtitles. I prefer dubbed. Each season is only 6 episodes long so you can binge through it pretty fast. If you're a fan or supernatural or sci-if then you should give this show a chance, you will not be disappointed.

I really enjoyed this series, showing in a better way the old mythology and religion of Scandinavia. People thinking that Marvels depiction of Norse Mythology is correct should be happily surprised to learn something else. Beautiful scenery and okay actors, combined with a good story. Looking forward to season2.
