Vikings: Valhalla

I love this genre; I watch all series and movies set in past eras. Some are spectacular, while others are lamentable. This case has some lamentable aspects and others that are excellent: The production, acting, costumes, and setting maintain the excellence of Vikings.

A black countess in Norway is absurd; there's no need for forced inclusion.

The plot jumps very long distances and sometimes seems illogical.

Among the characters, I think some are very well-developed and interesting, like Canute or Leif, while others, like Freydis and Harald, never quite convince.

I have to say that it is far from the level of *Vikings*, but it is still a good series.

I have been looking for a while for a series that would capture me from the beginning. I have seen too many shows that had great starts but quickly started to deteriorate after the first season. I found it in this show. Great acting, good action, an enjoyable pace and depth in character development. I binged this over a few weeks and for me it is fine that it stops after 3 seasons.

Yet this doesn't qualify as a masterpiece for me, like the original Vikings. The plot is well written, but there are a few plot holes to discover. Furthermore, the 3rd season and ending felt like a little bit rushed and maybe even unsatisfying. If they would've stretched out the 3rd season into 2 seasons, I think they would've been able to do the series more right.

Long story short: If you are looking for a very enjoyable series about the viking age with some great acting, this is the show to watch!

I never write a review but I believe this series deserves a positive review after seeing season three.

The different exotic locations from Kattegat and Greenland to Novgorod, the Varangians (Rus vikings) and the capital of the Byzantine empire Constantinopel, as well as the introductions of new characters keeps it really interesting and diverse. I found the story quite captivating and this season was by far the best. Especially the storylines of the characters Harald and Leif are great.

Of course it is historical not entirely accurate, but it does not need to be because it is fiction.

Check it out, it is worth it!

Season 3 is the best by far,normally the series tense to take the downfall but not vikings valhalla,every episode was better than the other.

I have enjoyed the drama,conspiracy,compat fight,the love with the characters and the eagerness that everyone has for POWER When it comes being a king there are no feelings, brothers against brothers and families falling apart in a day just foe the characters to please their ambitions and dreama.

WHICH I didn't enjoy that much are few details, like black in Norway, I mean I understand the inclusiveness etc but come on we talking about Norway,try to make it realistic I know that the story is made up but I don't care is not a documentary.

... to "the last kingdom", which is my standard for these types of shows. No idea about historical accuracy, but simply found myself getting bored with it after 3 episodes. I'm sure a lot of work went into it, but just not for me.
