I'm on episode 6 of season 1 right now. I've been disappointed with the writing and acting so far but I'm sticking in, hoping it gets better. I am a fan of The Last Kingdom on Netflix and, now that TLK is over, I wanted to find something else in the genre to watch. I'm not a historical expert, but there have been several words and phrases in the dialogue that are obviously more modern so I'm having a hard time connecting with the show and characters.
-
an absolute must see. recently I've definitely re-evaluate the Nordic works. this is in the top 10.
-
Good series. Visually well done. Great battle scenes. Some good character storylines which suck you in and get you invested.
-
Vikings is absolutely one of my favorite series of all time. Such great storytelling and character arcs, told with so much emotion, humor, and excitement. Absolutely love all of the Seasons - and it's NOT one of those shows that you invest all your time in and then are disappointed by the way it finishes - it's magnificent from beginning to end.
-
Meh season tbh. Nothing exciting really happened. Good introduction to the show, world and its characters. Story seemed partially disconnected and a presumably a set up to later seasons.
-
Vikings is one of the rare shows where it is never dull and full of entertainment. It's a show with plenty of violence, drama, mystery, etc. The character development is what keeps the show fresh and interesting. It takes you into this world of Vikings and keeps you intrigued throughout the series. I just loved this show so much and even though it hasn't been gone that long I already miss it! Obviously, the first four seasons were better with Travis Fimmel as Ragnar, it was actually one of the best shows on tv with him, but the show was still pretty good after he left (as long as you try not to compare it to those first 4 seasons). It was brought to Amazon Prime Video for the final ten episodes and really got back on track to end the series on a real high note!
-
One of the best tv shows to ever be created.
-
The first season was very good, I really liked that Ragnar defeated Earl Haraldson, because he was a bit of a jerk, Bjorn's haircut has an advanced quirk for its time. Despite Rolo, I think that they have eaten his head and that in truth he is not bad as in the series. Athelstan is another Viking. Unfortunately Floki is badly injured and Gilda died.
-
A series in which you could consider even the protagonists to be the villains.
-
Suffering from typical first season syndrome with some odd narrative decisions, Vikings openings season remains a solidly acted experience that strikes with its visual appeal, mighty strong direction and intriguing characters.
