Cause I Love Viking Movies

(3:21:49 PM) krisak@gmail.com/B1AE2FD4: Now I'm watching Valhalla Rising as a counter to the last movie. I'm a sucker for any movies involving vikings.
(3:39:23 PM) krisak@gmail.com/B1AE2FD4: 15 minutes in and I'm not sure whether it's brilliant or complete crap. So far it's like an art-house version of the 13th Warrior.
...
(4:21:36 PM) krisak@gmail.com/B1AE2FD4: Been watching Valhalla Rising for 45 minutes. So far the first 5 minutes showed promise. Since then... Nothing. Absolutely nothing. I keep waiting for something to happen.
(4:26:37 PM) krisak@gmail.com/B1AE2FD4: At the 50 minute mark now. So far it's just a one-eyed dude staring at things.
(4:30:27 PM) krisak@gmail.com/B1AE2FD4: OH SHIT! Something is happening!
(4:31:22 PM) krisak@gmail.com/B1AE2FD4: Dang... 15 seconds of something happening and now they're all just staring again.
(4:34:10 PM) krisak@gmail.com/B1AE2FD4: WTF? 5 minutes of staring at a rock.
(4:35:40 PM) krisak@gmail.com/B1AE2FD4: This is like the Blair Witch Project if there had been no witch.
(4:40:23 PM) krisak@gmail.com/B1AE2FD4: Okay... Valhalla Rising is just... WTF... I mean... WTF? Seriously...
(4:43:17 PM) krisak@gmail.com/B1AE2FD4: WTF? WHY DO THE VIKINGS HAVE BRITISH ACCENTS?
(4:44:58 PM) krisak@gmail.com/B1AE2FD4: Oh, good, more staring.
(4:47:28 PM) krisak@gmail.com/B1AE2FD4: And why, oh why, are the vikings trying to build Jeruselam?
(4:47:59 PM) krisak@gmail.com/B1AE2FD4: Is this what happens when you get mercury poisoning?
(4:50:38 PM) krisak@gmail.com/B1AE2FD4: Wait... The head crazy guy just shot an arrow at himself from 10 meters away. And now the one eyed guy is straing at himself from 10 meters away.
(4:50:59 PM) krisak@gmail.com/B1AE2FD4: Oh, nevermind, it's some two eyed guy staring at the one eyed guy.
(4:53:29 PM) krisak@gmail.com/B1AE2FD4: So the crazy old guy had a twin?
(5:00:40 PM) krisak@gmail.com/B1AE2FD4: Holy shit! There's Native Americans in ancient Norway!
(5:03:52 PM) krisak@gmail.com/B1AE2FD4: WTF? The movie finally ended. And... WTF?
