Ragnarok

Most series have so much of the same stuff, always very Hollywood looking and face washed. This is different, not only is not a american movie, but it shows a new take on today society without making a mockery out of it. Won't be for everyone taste, specially those used to more action and fantasy faling on the absurd. I recomend it and gave it a 8.

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!

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 was skeptical going into it but pleasantly surprised. Watched entire season in one sitting, btw. The acting was way better than I thought it was going to be, the story is very twighlighty in a way and that's probably the worst thing I can say about it but for what type of show it's trying to be, it does it very well. If you have a Solid story and good actors you usually can't go wrong, it has both. Watch at least 2 episodes before righting it off. GS

This one took me by surprise. Totally addictive, binge worthy Scandinavian film noire genre. Good plot. And awesome videography. Watch it in Norse with subtitles to get full affect. One of Netflix's best in a long while. Absolutely loved it.
