Pathfinder: Extended Edition (2007)

This would be a good film if it had a plot ! The plot is so basic. A Viking kid is left behind by his clan, when they are ship wrecked in anciant North America . The Kid is raised by the native American Tribes as there own. 15 years later the Vikings return. Now the Kid must fight to save his tribe from the Vikings ! But all is not lost, the film is brilliant to look at and the winter settings are beautiful. The violence is brutal and the director relishes every blood soaked scene. But the film is unintentionally funny, Just watch the underwater vision Karl Urban has, It's sheer comic brilliance ( for all the wrong reasons ). Also there are so many slow motion scenes of Vikings on horse back coming out of the mist, and slow motion amputions, if these were not in the film, the running time would be 25 minutes at best ! this is a lame and shallow version of the Excellent APOCALYPTO. And the film suffers with the Native Americans all having thick U.S. accents this is very off putting,… more »

And the film suffers with the Native Americans all having thick U.S. accents this is very off putting, and the film would have been better using the propper diolect and using subtitles. This is not a terrible film but could have been allot better. But if you want some brutal action and very little to think about , you could do allot worse. Just don't blame me if you have forgotten what the film was about a hour after viewing. A forgettable movie !
