      Some analysis from the movie lens

      I think the protagonist One-Eye is Odin, or, at least, an insinuation of Odin, a symbolic meaning.

      The types of people that appear need to be divided.

      The first category is the imprisoned one-eyed tribe, they should belong to the Vikings. The little boy said that he had come from across the ocean, with Denmark as the origin, perhaps Norway, the origin of Norse mythology. The little boy said he came from hell. This is strange, because...

      Actually a religious movie

      When everything started, there were only people and nature; when the people carrying the cross came, they drove away the infidels.

      When the brave Viking warriors lost their original faith, everything changed.

      A single-eyed Viking warrior with a mysterious background was carefully imprisoned in a cage by a group of wild warriors. He was raised as a beast, during which only a boy who fed him could approach him. In the fighting arena, the warriors who raised him used his...

      Landscape

      A long time ago, the Jade Emperor of the Vikings was Odin. In order to gain wisdom, he drank the fountain of wisdom at the cost of digging out one of his own eyes; in order to create the Norse script, he hung upside down on the big tree for nine days and nine nights, hanging branches and spears.

      A one-eyed Viking warrior was imprisoned in a cage and regarded as a beast fighting with others. After he escaped, he took a boy and embarked on a journey to find Jerusalem with a group of...

      Sometimes you don’t understand the cruelty of myths

      one.

      A movie that looks rather dark and obscure, and once you understand the theme it presents, you will be conquered by it. You will never think it is bad, but you will find it unique and beautiful.

       

      The title of the film "The Rise of Valhalla", in which "Valhalla" is the palace of the Viking war god Odin, also known as the Hall of Valor. It is believed that the Viking warriors entered this palace after their death. The film translated as " "Viking Hall of Heroes"...

    • By Hillary 2022-04-23 07:02:57

      The aphasic Cyclops used violence to cleanse the earth tainted by pagans. Children are the medium of communication between God and the world (such as the identity of priests/priests/saints). There should be hell everywhere. In the dazzling blood red, the obscure and grotesque religion is as meaningless to me as words are to a movie, but I am still curious, which religious interpretation is the translation of the Sunrise Martyrs'...

      It feels like a post-rock band recording a black dead album. Some parts of NWR's movies are awesome, and some parts are terribly boring, and it's similar to another Nicolas...

    Movie plot

    Everything in the film comes from a prehistoric fairy tale that has been widely circulated in Denmark.   Around 1000 AD, the leader of the tribe, Bud, made things difficult for Harold, the one-eyed warrior of unknown origin, not only did not think he was protected by his clan, but he felt that he was a dangerous creature cursed by hatred, and sentenced him to prison. Harold was bound in the wilderness and tortured. Fortunately, he met...

    Background creation

    "Valhalla Rising" is written and directed by the Danish filmmaker NWR, Jang , and uses a unique and distinctive perspective to analyze a myth that has been circulated in Denmark for a long time.

    • Eirik: God brought us out of that mist for a reason. We claim this land in His name.

      Kare: How do we do that? We're half starved. Three men dead, one missing.

    • Kare: Endless warfare. It makes more tramps than heroes. But you should come with us to Jerusalem. Your sins will be absolved, wither you live or die. You will see your loved ones again.
