Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaIn the scene in which the Úlfhéðnar attack the Slavic town, Amleth catches a spear in midair and throws it back at the Slavs in one movement. This is taken from the medieval Icelandic story of Njáls saga in which Audolf throws a spear at the Viking hero Gunnar, but Gunnar catches it in midair and throws it straight through Audolf and his shield.
- GoofsThe runic inscription of "Amleth's Saga" is written incorrectly in the movie version as opposed to the trailer of The Northman where it is correct. The title shown in the trailer written with runes can be translated to "amluthasaka" or amlóða saga, amleth's saga.
However at the end of the actual movie the title is missing the rune of "a" from its word saga, making it read akin to "Amleth's sga".
- Quotes
Young Amleth: I will avenge you, Father! I will save you, Mother! I will kill you, Fjölnir!
- Crazy creditsThe film title and the intertitles appear in ancient Norse runes.
Featured review
This is not an action movie...
This is not a viking version of Die Hard. This isn't an M. Night Shyamalan movie with a cute twist. It's absolutely not a movie with modern sensibilities.
This is a tale in the style of an epic myth. It showcases classic themes of betrayal, vengeance, and sacrifice through a brutal mix of realism and symbolism.
It's unapologetically not for everyone. And it's bloody fantastic.
