Even if it's less grand and a bit more repetitive than the first part, it's still a really entertaining film. It's a great tale of blind revenge.

I laughed at all the 'you don't know how loyal Germans are' stuff.

Missing the action, excitement, and drama of the first part, as well as the cool editing tricks and interesting set designs. Feels way too long and gets a bit boring at times. Still quite good and has some exciting moments. Probably should have been an hour shorter.

The sets and photography are amazing as all get-out... the influence on Ran is noticeable. But, jeez... it's obvious why Hitler loved this movie. Nationalist to the point of discomfort, Lang presents the Germans as unfailingly noble gods (and the Huns as filthy and savage), and yet they shelter a man who is a total scumbag.

Not as immediately impressive as the first half of the story, Kriemhild's Revenge is still excellent in really every way. It finished the story of the epic Siegfried and his wife Kriemhild. Visually masterful and tells a great tale but all in all, what is so impressive is how accessible it is for a silent film of epic proportions.

Powerful, atmospheric continuation of the epic. More concentrated than Part I, but less archetypal.

Much more driven and atmospheric than its predecessor. But its single mindedness also makes for a less interesting narrative. Kriemhild is categorically what holds this together.
