I enjoyed this movie. I did not love it. It created an itch that The Green Knight very much scratched and this one did not. Amleth's intermittent invincibility and his goofy-rear end gym bro hunch really took me out of it the most. He was absolutely unreasonably jacked to a distracting degree in a very movie-roids sort of way, which made the "ah these slaves are weak" moments extra goofy.

I think I just expected more to think about about after all the hype. I've never seen his other stuff so maybe I didn't know what to expect, or maybe it just wasn't super for me.
