The poor man's 7 samurai.

Not too bad, but it seemed to lack 'emphasis' at key times. I don't mean 'hollywood explosions' or more 'characteristic gore.' I wasn't captivated enough to find many high or low points in this film. There was nothing here that endeared me to the vikings significantly by either their actions, customs or their words. Nor was there anything about the "Arab" to greatly like. Also nothing about the enemy that made me detest them or fear them very much. Not even the sneaky over done cannibal moralism
