The beauty of the Icelandic countryside juxtaposes nicely against the brutality and savagery of the people who inhabit it. Speaking of brutality. Consider yourself forewarned. Pretty much every living thing that appears on the screen will be slaughtered at one time or another – humans and animals alike. You’ll want to cover your eyes more than once. It ain’t pretty, but it is certainly real.

The Northman is an epic revenge thriller, that explores how far a Viking prince will go to seek justice for his murdered father. I think that was something, when I first read the script, that I was really excited about because you know when you're doing a Robert Eggers movie that if it says 'they walk across you know, volcanoes and glaciers' and whatever, we will be walking across volcanoes and glaciers. You'll just be straight in it. Weekend Box Office Results: Five Nights at Freddy’s Scores Monster Opening Link to Weekend Box Office Results: Five Nights at Freddy’s Scores Monster Opening

Though The Northman is not a horror movie, there is plenty of gore and there are horror beats throughout its narrative that will likely provide some cross-appeal to those genre fans. But it’s the brutally honest depiction, without judgment, of the Vikings that further sets Eggers’ film apart from others in the genre. Universal Pictures UK has officially announced and detailed its upcoming 4K Blu-ray and Blu-ray releases of Robert Eggers' The Northman (2022), starring Alexander Skarsgård, Nicole Kidman, Claes Bang, Anya Taylor-Joy, and Ethan Hawke. The two releases will be available ...Alexander Skarsgård plays Amleth, who as a boy witnessed the murder of his father King Aurvandil, played by Ethan Hawke. The culprits were henchmen in the pay of his saturnine, duplicitous uncle Fjölnir, played by Claes Bang. The murderer then marries Aurvandil’s queen Gudrún, played with a willowy yet steely and gimlet-eyed presence by Nicole Kidman. The first time we see Gudrún is when young Amleth (Oscar Novak) is told off by his mother for scampering into her bedroom while she is dressing: Eggers and co-screenwriter Sjón playfully encourage us to suspect that there will be some time in the future when Amleth will have a nakedly intimate encounter with his mother. So it proves – and Kidman gets an absolute showstopper of a scene. Eggers’ approach to the film is an acquired taste to be sure, and he certainly makes The Northman a unique film with a definite vision. The story, however, is a bit formulaic, except where it’s laced with nods to Norse spirituality. It is a film of memorable moments, but they don’t quite gel into a completely memorable film overall. It’s worth a watch to be sure, and some of the images will stay with you, and for this film, that’ll have to be enough. AMLETH’S JOURNEY TO MANHOOD - "Aurvandil's initiation of Amleth into manhood is one of the most pivotal points on his journey. Take a deeper look at how filmmakers and cast crafted this mysterious ritual."
