1.5/5

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.

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

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.

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

When critics who've never made a movie rag on flicks like this, my blood boils. These people did a LOT with very little. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Satisfying story, good acting. It was feel good fun with solid, believable performances and writing. More enjoyable than most 100 million dollar marvel films.

I really liked this movie. I found It quite entertaining. Both leading actors do a pretty good job. It's the ending that I think is somewhat disappointing because it leaves a few loose ends. A second instalment would be welcome
