Sanda oh
Watched today wanted to see what all the fuss is all about without giving too much away this is coming of age drama especially if you’re a teenager we’ve gone thru it me back in the 80s but at least I didn’t turn into a giant red panda. The animation is great especially on Mei as she turns into the panda overall decent movie for the kids some of its abit adult for youngsters but not bad movie

Reasonably fun if you like 80s style fantasy. (1 more)
Decent twist in the end.
A less polished Highlander, but with vikings
The first third of the film focuses on a conflict between Vikings and feels like a throwback to 80s fantasy movies. It takes the mythical Valykries and makes them into vampires basically, able to grant immortality and power through a bite.
Without spoiling details, a betrayal occurs that sets a rift between two brothers that are chosen for immortality and power. This rift leads to a conflict that spans centuries as they are reborn again and again to continually face off against each other. One on the name of Odin, the other for his own destiny. The film then jumps to modern times, where the conflict is still going.
The story isn't all that original, but it isn't bad, with a decent twist at the end. The acting for most of the cast is not great, but not bad. The music, however, is quite good.
Overall, it isn't a bad movie, but is severely hurt by production quality and some poor decisions in design. For example, it's difficult to take the protagonist,s enemies seriously when they are running around the city in bear skins and armor. The decision to add an odd and terrible looking glow effect to the Valykries at times or when immortals are killed, was another strike. Despite it's shortcomings, I don't regret watching it. The movie is fun for what it is, and I happen to like 80s fantasy, which whether purposely or not, it captures the feeling of to me.

I was amazed at this movie.
The story was just ok
The acting was great
Action was great
But what go me to liking this movie was the style. The technical side is what got me. Camera shot were great. Shooting this as a movie from the 70s great. They even brought in the beginning credits like movies prior to the 80s. If it was not for how clean cut the shots were i would have thought this was a cult classic from the 70s.

Just watched wow as I originally saw the orignal David lynch version back in the 80s the one sting and thinking this was a good movie back then. now I've seen the new version and I would have to say this version is far superior especially in the effects department they can do stuff that the orignal couldn't back then. As I watched in 4dx 3d which could get bumpy at times after 2 and half hours. Overall good movie bring on part 2
