Critical reception
The film was largely negatively received by reviewers. The Guardian's Cath Clarke described it as "fantastically wooden and dodgily acted"[4] and Jeannette Catsoulis of The New York Times summed it up as "low-budget Nordic nonsense".[5] In contrast James Hanton of Starburst (magazine) asserted that, of the Viking movies in circulation, "this one punches above its weight in comparison to many"[6] and Flash Bang Film Review commented that it "delivers a very high standard of action in front of the camera and strong filmatism [sic] behind it.".[7]
