Nicholas B @RT55131437 Jul 20 The first 2 episodes felt indulgently grim and relentlessly bleak, but I'm mostly glad I stuck with it. Some impressive performances and cinematography also helped bolster its exploration of an existential dread, where the answers to the big questions in life seem fated to elude us all. A bit clunky/uneven in spots, but it's par for course when your themes are so ambitious. Not exactly life-affirming, but it does yield some surprisingly positive affirmations just the same.

Especial effects could have been more powerful especially the whale hunting and slicing. A coherent artwork on the whole.

I had to ween myself into it a little at first but found myself soon watching it all in a couple of days. Colin Farrell's character set the pace and pretty much the direction this movie went with his brilliant performance, not generally a fan but he blitzed this. During the film I applauded how good the sets were and how realistic everything was only to find these guys were actually up there dancing with Polar bears and seals in freezing conditions. I don't think saying the word "violent" would be a spoiler, more an understatement. Besides being good viewing it made me think how domesticated I was and if I could survive in lesser harsh conditions. I was told once if an actor made you laugh, cry, or more so hate their character, then they were a good actor. Colin Farrell you are a very good actor, as all the cast were.

Jack O'Connell and Colin Farrell are both excellent, but Colin Farrell's evilness steals the movie. He actually doesn't have that many lines but his evil menacing needs little dialogue. He is scarily evil. See more Gareth v @geewah 06/18/2023 Dark, brutal and gripping. This tale of survival really comes into it's own in the last few episodes where every man fights for themself in a harsh and unforgiving environment.
