What a sorry piece of film this was. Adjusted for a small budget yes, but come on - the creative forces in production and acting were so weak. The story is lame and confusing and the acting sucks.
That Goes for everyone except Kim Bodnia. Sad to see such a good actor riding out his career by catching crappy gigs in low budget productions. The setting for this movie - 12th Century Norway, recently christened by the sword - presents lots of opportunities for a good movie on a small budget. Was this achieved? No. Were dialogues and acting at times awkward? Yes. Did you get fed up of Ansgar before even seeing him? Indeed
If, by curiosity you decide to watch this movie - they the Only way to enjoy the film is to turn it into a drinking game. Every time the name Ansgar is spoken - your Choice of liquid comes bottom up! Raise the stakes by shotting Absinthe every time the protagonist looks perplexed and stupid while uttering his brothers name.
