:thumb:I will be all in on this one:thumb:

I’m a sucker for a good sword and sandal flick.

I hope lutefisk will have a major role in this movie.

Yeah, that looks good. I am in.

In.

Looks great!

I have been enjoying the last kingdom on netflix.

Eggers is easily one of the most interesting and talented new directors working today. I can't wait to see this and see what Eggers does with a big budget.

(Apparently it is also beyond violent and pulls no punches. )

Easily one of my most anticipated films of 2022. The trailer has me hyped af.

Any of you guys see this? I watched it and enjoyed it but I'm a sucker for revenge movies.

I saw it, it was very entertaining but they really didn't do much to build the characters. They didn't show us the struggle he had to endure going from child to man. I think that could have made me care more about his cause.

True. They jumped forward quite a bit. And then he seemed to go from his 20's to his 30's suddenly but I guess that was just the rough life showing in his face.

The action was really good though and the unfolding of the family dynamic was very interesting.

Yeah. The thing with the mom I wondered about because I was thinking of Stockholm Syndrome, but also had that nagging feeling because of the joke in the beginning of the movie and how everyone reacted to it. Trying not to spoil anything for anyone here.

I also enjoyed the way they dipped back and forth between fantasy and reality. Gave it a fairy tale feel.
