I just re-watched the Northman. Such a great movie!
I am in the process of re-watching The Northman. I think the main reason I hated it the FIRST time around was because I didn't understand it.
For example, why didn't Amleth just bring all of his Berserkers to kill Fjolnir and his men on the farm? That would have been a lot easier than pretending to be a slave and trying to avenge all by himself. But from what I read, he had to do it alone because it was prophesied - it was said in the beginning and in the middle that he could not escape his destiny - the prophecy.
I also didn't understand that king Aurvandil raped Gudrun (a slave), and Amleth was conceived from this rape. And that Gudrun actually hated both Aurvandil and Amleth and wanted both of them dead - thus plotting with Fjolnir to kill both Aurvandil and Amleth.
So now that I understand the plot, I can enjoy it a lot more.
The picture quality looks great, and the sound quality is also great. I heard some good overhead sound effects. Overall very solid sound quality.
