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.

Vikings: Valhalla is a powerful continuation of the epic Viking saga, and it delivers in every way. The show perfectly balances intense action, layered storytelling, and complex characters, making it an incredible viewing experience. Set a hundred years after the original Vikings series, Valhalla introduces a new generation of fierce warriors and legendary figures, like Leif Erikson and Harald Sigurdsson, each of whom adds fresh energy and depth to the Viking lore.

The attention to historical detail is impressive, and the cinematography captures the raw beauty and brutality of the Viking world. The battle scenes are thrilling, with epic scale and stunning choreography that make every confrontation feel intense and personal. But it's not just about the battles-the story dives into cultural conflicts, politics, and the evolution of Norse and Christian beliefs, making it as thought-provoking as it is entertaining.

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.

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!

Being a huge fan of the original Vikings I was really looking forward to Vikings: Valhalla. Now, even though it's not as quite as good as the original it's still a really good show that absolutely holds up as it's own great series (as long as you don't compare it to the original). It takes place 100 years after the original show and makes references to all the great characters from that show like Ragnar, Bjorn, Lagertha, Rollo, Ivar, etc. It also mainly takes place in Kattegat, which was home to all those great characters. The new heroes in this show (Leif, Harold, Freydis, etc) are all really easy to root for and do a incredible job pulling you into the show. After finishing season 3 (the last season) I can say I've been thoroughly entertained throughout the entire series and I'm so glad they were able to give it a proper ending instead of of a cliffhanger.
