Viking Wolf

I swear a lot of people have poor taste or have been COMPLETELY programmed by regular, subpar, run-of-the-mill mainstream nonsense, that their minds have melted or they're in a perpetual state of discombobulation.

Put simply; this film is brilliant!! It's simple, well acted, and is not ruined by the insertion of the most-prevalent western Alphabet agenda.

This is brilliant! I don't get the hate!... simple is better, in most cases.

Nowadays we're fed big-budget nonsense, that forces an agenda or two but is unbearable, at which point it becomes a pointless watch.

This film snuck up on me; I found myself feeling so sad for the girl.

When her little sister recognised her while she was in werewolf form and said, "I can help you..." I cried uncontrollably.

Don't listen to the other reviews; listen to me; watch this: you will not be disappointed. This film is decent! Simple, but decent.

Worst ive seen coming outta my countrys film-''industry'', it lacks so much, and that maybe due to the fact that the plot idea couldve been an international blockbuster...

allthough im negative in the start, you will be awarded with some decent and scenic natural camerashoots of norwegian environment, you will be amazed by the quality on the special effects, especially the werewolf, and the wound makeup of the victims...

but the way they tell this story is a cathastrophee en masse', the cast of actors look like theyve forgotten their lines and stutters till full stop, so the script must be a failure, and the willingness of the director to do tiring retakes till the product is perfect are totally absent. The '' cut and glue'' guy on the production line appears not to have been at the actual shooting scenes, and have done the matter just reading the screenplay...

so with a fair amount of goodwill i wont offer more than a 4 outta 10 for this film, i agree with loads of the reviews ive seen on the olin'e, a no recommend from the grumpy old man.

This is one big pot of nonsense stew. The script doesn't have a single original idea, everything is borrowed, both from superior movies and equally stupid ones. It's like an amateurish mashup of every werewolf movie you've ever seen. Ginger Snaps in particular says hello throughout, there are echoes of When Animals Dreams, which is actually a decent Scandinavian coming of age cum werewolf movie. A chaste and sanitized ghost of American Werewolf in London is somewhere in there, too.

There's a bit of teenage family drama thrown in, there's young love, both of which don't take the story anywhere.

The dialogue is very bad, the production bland, the overall look is that of a minor TV movie. There are multiple goofs and continuity issues.

Worst of all, the movie is a bore.

A low budget but tightly done Norwegian horror movie about an ancient Werewolf that survives until the 21st Century and wrecks havoc on a small town. This is not necessarily anything new or unusual in the genre of Werewolf movies, but maybe that is part of the charm. It has all the basic tropes of the Werewolf legends. I won't list them for fear of spoilers, but this is not the movie to watch for a new take on werewolves. More likely, it is an homage to the source material on them. The cast is good. The Direction is decent. It is a solid horror movie. The special effects are the weakest part. It is foreign language with English Subtitles.

If u were a werewolf fan, I honestly tell u that it's a far cry from the Underworld franchise with Kate Beckinsale (Selene) nor Teen Wolf with O'Brien. Its Nordic style gave me an exotic impression, which was the only thing that kept me on my seat.

It has severely limited SFX, and a fairy thin n straight forward plot. Each character is not fully developed and none of their role is compelling. For the whole movie time I totally didn't understand why Liv gotta work almost alone as a police officer. I couldn't feel any love in the movie, regardless the family one not the fancy one. The university lecturer/ vet seemed more like a junior lab tech. Expert, seriously? The director should have chosen a more seriously-looking actor (e.g. Imagine Tom Cruise). And then the old man werewolf hunter looked like an amateur. Get someone looks like Sean Connery please! And how boredom was his advices!!!! Just silver bullets n habitats. Any movie fan can tell her more! Twist? None at all. Ending? What a vague ending. I surmise the director also got fell flat and didn't wanna have a sequel. Thus forget about any cliffhanger.

Lastly but not the least, the werewolf looked plastic to me. It's fake, lame, absurd, and def not a scary one.

After all it's Ok as an entertainment, B-class, for 1-1/2 hr. Don't expect anything else.
