An astonishingly accurate portrayal of Norse society and thought patterns...although with some deliberately anachronistic armor. A beautiful adaptation that even makes us cheer for a Moslem protagonist. Some of the cinematography in this movie was just mindblowing, including a moving closeup shot of the faces of charging horses, lit by firelight. Too cool.

That movie is total shit. Even Sean Connery couldnt save that pile of crap. Same with Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves. Just how many of you English chaps watched Kevin Costner butcher that movie and didnt laugh through most of the flick?
