“Well-acted, directed, and undeniably thrilling. Alexander Skarsgård cuts a swath of bloody vengeance in a ferocious Viking epic. The film vividly combines a Hamlet-esque narrative with Scandinavian history and mythology.”
– Julian Roman, MovieWeb -
“The kind of filmmaking that rips you out of your body so hard that you’re liable to forget what year it is. In a movie era that’s been defined by compromise, ‘The Northman’ rides into theaters with the fury of a Valkyrie. You’ll feel like you’ve died and gone to Valhalla.”
– David Ehrlich, INDIEWIRE -
“It might not be subtle, it might not even be particularly deep, but it sure is spectacular.”
– Christopher Machell, CINEVUE -
“300 meets Midsommar, and probably the most realistic Viking movie to date…a visceral experience worthy of the big screen - and your time.”
– Grace Randolph, BEYOND THE TRAILER -
“Eggers’ immersive approach and stylistic flair creates one wild, applause-worthy combat scene after another, reminding viewers why he’s one of the most unique visual artists working today.”
– Tomris Laffly, AV CLUB -
“An absolute beast of a movie.”
