The Northman 2022

If you're expecting two hours of battle action you will be very disappointed, but honestly if you've seen any other Robert Eggers movie by now you should have known better than to expect this. But, of course this may be the first movie you'll be watching from Eggers, so in any case be prepared for a slow ride. For me, one of the best aspects of the movie was how well Eggers handed the "magic" aspect, it almost becomes pure fantasy at times, to immerse the watcher in the beliefs of the norse myhology the people had at that time, but you could also think of them as products of an active unconsciuos fuled by psychotics sometimes, or by the simple belief in that mithology. The script being not only about revenge was a bonus for me.
