One reply on “The Rise of the Viking (2018) Movie Recommendation”
Great reviews as always. I haven’t heard of this movie before, but your review has compelled me to see it. I am a huge fan of medieval epics that take place in old-fashioned centuries. The premise for “The Rise of the Viking” brings to mind the classic medieval film “Gladiator”. Ridley Scott’s masterpiece celebrated gladiators that fought in Ancient Rome. One of my favorite movies of all-time. So, I would definitely keep “The Rise of the Viking” on my watchlist. Thanks for the recommendation.
Here’s why I loved “Gladiator”:
