Review of The Northman (2022) by Lumdog — 24 Apr 2022
A brutal Viking revenge tale. It's the Hamlet story we all know, and there is a Shakespearean tragedy feel here. The film has some of the best cinematography I've ever seen - with lighting and on-location shots.
The musical score is heart-pounding with the Nordic sounding drums and chants. The film feels so historically accurate and authentic. Robert Eggers and his team really tried to immerse you completely into the place and time.
The cast is all spectacular, particularly Skarsgard who is just a beast in this. Unfortunately this film won't do well at the box office, please go out and support it. We need more films like this.
