Viking Blood

Well. I was thinking about this as I went to the loo...how really awful it is. But then I thought....really, the people probably DD live in ramshackle little villages. They probably DID fall out with the people who lived over the hill. They probably DIDNT have a whole lot to say to each other and when they did, I might have been just as lame. They probably DID look as dirty.

Then I realised the lead was playing the villages off against each other and it is a Viking remake of Clint Eastwood's famous spaghetti Western. Is it Tgbau, or is it "A Fistful of Dollars"?

That made it a slightly better film, as at least there was a semblance of a plot - to copy the plot of another movie. Because otherwise, it didn't make any sense at all. Really.

Usually there is pretty scenery or something to make up for it. There wasn't.

It is a good film, enjoyable to watch. However, the story is extremely close to the one of the Sergio Leone's film '' A fistful of dollars. "It must be remembered that Sergio Leone himself had drawn the story of his film from a previous work by Akira Kurosawa.

I couldn't stop myself laughing from the very first moment the main character and his ridiculous haircut appeared on the screen. An iconic brutal viking figure that's gonna haunt me in my most terrible nightmares for sure.

A fairly poor attempt, to save on money the costumes are terrible, the sets are pathetic, the editing is shocking.

It gets a 2 because I like Viking shows but this looks like it was made by the high school film club, probably best avoided.

Fist full of Dollars was the original, this is a weak attempt to use that storyline and make a Viking version. Acting 7/10, Plot 2/10 unoriginal, Overall 5/10.
