Valhalla

This was so much better than the Hollywood treatment, this actually felt real, as I imagined what Asgard would be like, none of that Holywood technologically advanced and old world at the same time stuff. Not sure what I was expecting when I started to watch the film, but really enjoyed it; the acting and direction could have been better, but a great watch nevertheless.

I LOVE mythology, so i was VERY disappointed. First of all There were exactly 4(!) mortal citizens in whole movie, so called "Valhalla" was empty place with just few guards, who looks as mortals despite fact, they werent (or shouldnt). Should also mentioned, that Gods (7?) are tired drunkies and perverts. Who wouldnt love this? And btw, Loki had dark hairs not dark skin, his skin was pale.

Let's be honest: the original cartoons and the animated movie had something rarely seen: a deep story - with a sense of irony and comedy. This movie has none of it. The characters are flat as a pancake - without any depth and filled with clichees. The acting performances are uninspired and for some unknown reasons (according to the director??) do all males in norse mythology sound like a poor imitation of Batman. This was a huge disappointment

Well, have been waiting to see this movie ever since I heard it went into production, I grew up reading the comics and have seen the animated version many times which in Denmark is a classic. So thought either they would mess it up completely or hit the spot, neither happened, it is like stuck in between, they changes the story a bit to make it new a fresh, it is a bit off here and there when you know about the old scandinavian culture, but it still makes it watchable! So all in all a decent flick, specially good for kids that needs an easy story, decent acting, apart from a few roles that could have been casted better.

-Compared to other interpretations of the nordic mythology - this was spot on. allthough I missed a lot of details, eg I missed the lowered ocean levels after thors drinking competition and the running contest with ones own shadow. What about Frey, I'am always looking forward to see the film-makers imagination of her.... very disappointing. Anyway, this ways a good experience, a film cut to the bone, trustful to the story. (one last thing - a wooden door should be built with a diagonal braces starting from the top of a door - away from the hinge and downwards. ending close to the lower hinge - otherwise it would collapse within few weeks.... ohh please dont make that mistake again, Ive seen it made false soo many times)
