Austin Chronicle

Mortal plods along for most of its running time with the occasional helicopter chase scene and plenty of CGI fulminology: But ultimately Ovredal's not-so-deep-dive into Norwegian mythos is a too-obvious let down.

Rated: 1.5/5

Yet another dreary entry in the overly serious superhero genre, where brooding and brown cinematography add a false veneer of importance to the proceedings.

Rated: 1/4

Øvredal's lopsided sense of humor has deserted him entirely: The sillier the story gets, the more glumly and earnestly the film trudges through it.

...slow-moving and palpably padded-out...

Hits beats too familiar and too bland, culminating in something of a forgettable snooze fest.

The movie picked up as it went on and actually ended up being really good. Probably no shot at a part 2 but I would watch it.

My wife and I loved the film, except the ending, we wish there will be plans for making a Mortal II in the works to give the audience a better closing, and how Eric (Thor) gets his faith restored in humanity after such a tragic end to his Psychologist sweetheart. We were drawn-in throughout the whole movie. We are hoping there will be another film.

A great take on a character that's been washed out by marvel. Though it becomes fairly obvious by the middle of the film who Erik is, the film was still engaging to watch. If you're used to an action segment every few minutes like most action movies, this will disappoint. But if you settle in and take the film was a whole, it's a great ride that leaves you wanting a sequel
