@@captainkielbasa5471 Amleth's journey causes nothing but misery and then death to the people most directly involved. He only gets satisfaction in his final moments because of the delusions of his culture which assure him a reward in the afterlife for his brutality. He maims and butchers people who had nothing to do with betraying his father, and by the time he does kill Fjolnir he's completely destroyed a peaceful farming village in the middle of nowhere. If he didn't pursue revenge, we have every reason to believe Fjolnir's hamlet would have continued a peaceful survival indefinitely. His secondary goal, the rescue of his mother, is completely subverted when it's reveals she willingly went to Fjolnir precisely because he was less brutal and more human than her prior husband, the father Amleth idolises so extremely. At this point Amleth is too far in his mission to stop, so he doesn't reflect on this, and chooses to stay the course and finish the destruction he started. The only character who gets out pretty unscathed is Olga, who represents the feminine element, and even tries to turn Amleth away from his path of bloodshed multiple times. It is extremely noteworthy that when he discovers she is pregnant, the children and future royalty are twins - one boy, one girl. The future of Amleth's culture is one with a much more feminine influence. If the message was only to glorify the testosterone-infused culture Amleth represents, then he would have had only a male heir who could be as ""honourable"" as him. Details are put in the movie for a reason. I think the murder of all the non-slave women and children in the Rus village early on should have been the first big tip-off that Amleth's viking culture is not being portrayed as purely a good thing. A very cool thing, yes. But the movie is impressively able to relish in the coolness while also being very critical of it.
The plots of many Icelandic sagas are even more exciting and dramatic than that of Amlethus/Amloði from Denmark. Gisla saga, Egils saga or Gunnlaugs saga ormstungu would make perfect blockbusters. Gore, carnage and excitement guaranteed.
Robert Eggers is the film genius of our time. But like most geniuses, their work is only later appreciated. This movie is a “call to arms”. For us to Remember Our Strength, To Remember OUR Culture, and to analyze Our own minds and morals to see “What We Are Willing To Do” To Avenge the wrongs done to Our Kingdom (Society) Our People (Nation), Our Tribe (State), Our clan (Outer Family) and Our Family (inner family/Closest family). Will You sit back and allow the destroyer of Your Way Of Life To Live Free…Or will You Throw Off The Chains of Your Oppressors, The Destroyer of Your World, and make their living moments a nightmare?? What are You willing to do for Your Tribe? Will you turn from your gate, and bow and grovel to the New Ruler who destroyed your life, or will you take the fury from your soul and use it to bring down the tyrant?? Remember Your Ancestors Strength of Mind and Will. Will you Honor Them? Or make them ashamed to call you descendants? Eggers is calling you out.
You're absolutely correct. We should all be ashamed of ourselves. Sitting back as these unelected "leaders" opened the borders of our lands, our homes! Inviting hostile enemies in by the millions. The same lands our ancestors fought and died to procure for us so that we may live on in prosperity and peace... now we have invited an army of spiteful invaders into our countries with open arms only to be laughed at, robbed and beating by gangs while they freely spit in your wives faces and molest our children in the open streets with impunity. The media has brainwashed our women by using their blessed but yet naive altruism against them. They stab their own men in the back with a twisted misguided sense of virtue. The men need to rise up. Refuse to go softly into that good night. Let them know we were here. Leave your mark.
Did we watch the same movie? Amleth was wrong. The greater tyrant was his father, and he himself slaughters a peaceful hamlet in the middle of nowhere for his missplaced revenge and obsession with "honour." The hypermasculine viking culture was shown to be a bad thing, which Amleth derives satisfaction from despite the brutality he makes innocents go through. Amleth proved himself to be the ultimate viking spirit, but what was that worth? The only optimistic part of the movie is the survival of pregnant Olga, who as the feminine element tried to get Amleth to abandon his revenge, and notably is carrying twin regents within her: one boy, one girl. The suggestion is that the masculine-only violent culture of Amleth's bloodline ends in his own self-destruction.
@@LoudWaffle LMMFAO 😃 All women would be slaves to the Monstrous men, if not for all those so called “Hyper Masculine” Men. You know, those men who worship the Odinic Cult. Which revolves around the connection and unity of both masculine and feminine magic. The Seer is literally wearing a dress when Amleth finds him in Iceland with the skull of Heimir. Because Odin mastered both Masculine Magic of Battle, and Femine Magic of The runes and “secrets of The female”, The Valkyrie, and The Norns of Fate. So to say masculinity is bad, Femininity is good, proves you didn’t understand the movie, and saw it through your own modern “Toxic Man Bad” biased lens.
@@LoudWaffle Also, your repeated liberal outrage Pearl clutching analysis, ignores the actual history of The Femine Heroin you have created in your mind that leaves behind the “Hyper Masculine Vengeance” of The Viking Age. It’s implied that Olga of the birch Forrest is the mother of Olga of Kiev. And if that is the case, you obviously don’t know about her Historical-Mythos. After the Drevlians a nearby Slavic tribe, murdered Igor, the King of Kiev and The Rus. Olga became Regent for her 3 year old son Sviatoslav. Emboldened by their success, The Drevlians, sent a messenger to Olga proposing that she marry his murderer, Prince Mal. Twenty Drevlian negotiators boated to Kiev to pass along their king's message and to ensure Olga's compliance. They arrived in her court and told the queen why they were in Kiev: "to report that they had slain her husband ... and that Olga should come and marry their Prince Mal." She responded: “Your proposal is pleasing to me, indeed, my husband cannot rise again from the dead. But I desire to honor you tomorrow in the presence of my people. Return now to your boat, and remain there with an aspect of arrogance. I shall send for you on the morrow, and you shall say, "We will not ride on horses nor go on foot, carry us in our boat." And you shall be carried in your boat.” When the Drevlians returned the next day, they waited outside Olga's court to receive the honor she had promised. When they repeated the words she had told them to say, the people of Kiev rose up, carrying the Drevlians in their boat. The ambassadors believed this was a great honor as if they were being carried by palanquin. The people brought them into the court where they were dropped into a trench that had been dug the day before under Olga's orders where the ambassadors were buried alive. It is written that Olga bent down to watch them as they were buried and "inquired whether they found the honor to their taste.” Olga then sent a message to the Drevlians that they should send "their distinguished men to her in Kiev, so that she might go to their Prince with due honor."The Drevlians, unaware of the fate of the first diplomatic party, gathered another party of men to send "the best men who governed the land of Dereva." When they arrived, Olga commanded her people to draw them a bath and invited the men to appear before her after they had bathed. When the Drevlians entered the bathhouse, Olga had it set on fire from the doors, so that all the Drevlians within burned to death. Olga sent another message to the Drevlians, this time ordering them to "prepare great quantities of mead in the city where you killed my husband, that I may weep over his grave and hold a funeral feast for him." When Olga and a small group of attendants arrived at Igor's tomb, she did indeed weep and hold a funeral feast. The Drevlians sat down to join them and began to drink heavily. When the Drevlians were drunk, she ordered her followers to kill them, "and went about herself egging on her retinue to the massacre of the Drevlians." According to the Primary Chronicle, five thousand Drevlians were killed on this night, but Olga returned to Kiev to prepare an army to finish off the survivors. So to some things up pretty and neat, You don’t know what your talking about. As Vengeance was not a Hyper Masculine Trait. Nor exclusive to The Viking age. So, if Olga is meant to be The Uber-Femine savior of all the Toxicity of Men…she failed miserably.
@@shannondavis3686 While I don't appreciate the unfounded and confusing quip about "liberal outrage," I do thank you for the serious engagement with my comment. I don't think there's much reason to believe the movie's Olga is Olga of Kiev. The time frame fits, but unlike the one of Kiev, our Olga is of Rus ethnicity rather than Varangian, is DEFINITELY pagan rather than Christian, and at the end of the movie goes to Scotland, not back to Rus. Olga is just a common female name from that region, so the coincidence is very reasonable. So I'd rather take the character we have presented to us in the film, as even if she were based on Olga of Kiev, it would be "based on, but different" like most of the historical details in the film. And the Olga we see in the film is one focused on survival of herself and of her family, as opposed to Amleth's suicidal revenge. That doesn't mean she's a polar opposite to what he represents, it's not a binary distinction, nor did I say it was. Olga is not disgusted by his actions and is very willing to help him (with the hallucinogenic mushrooms). But her role is clearly to be a (failed) dampener on his bloodlust.
true but remember what time the movie takes place in, you cant use modern day as a point of reference, also This tale is what inspired shakespear to write hamlet which is a tragedy, it would never have a happy hollywood esc ending @@ronneyrendon

It's based on the original story which Hamlet is based on, though ironically Hamlet is closer to the original plotline. Which doesn't matter, because this movie came out as a masterpiece.

It was quite critical of "raw testosterone."
