Big scale, handsomely produced adventure with some brutal, axe-wielding action. Norse Viking chieftain Douglas and slave Curtis are both unaware that they’re half-brothers and fight for the right to rule Northumbria and the hand of its princess (Leigh) in mid 8th century England.
This certainly depicts the brutality of the time with a few particularly grisly moments. The story is historically inaccurate but it's still a very enjoyable watch.
