I liked this movie quite a bit, but in so many dimensions it invites comparison to The Green Knight, and I think the Green Knight is better in nearly every case. I felt like this was particularly true in how the films weaved in the fantastical, mythological imagery. One particular thing about the Northman I did like was how often there were little things going on in the background, often showing characters maybe having more agency than you'd expect. The one that stands out in particular was when they were sacking the Rus village, you get this short vignette of a woman coming forwards and falling to her knees to offer the raiders bread, but it's all a ruse as she lunges at one with a knife.
