Marc Savlov Austin Chronicle 11/12/2020
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. Go to Full Review
Odie Henderson RogerEbert.com 11/06/2020
1/4
Yet another dreary entry in the overly serious superhero genre, where brooding and brown cinematography add a false veneer of importance to the proceedings. Go to Full Review
Guy Lodge Variety 11/06/2020
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. Go to Full Review

Jade Budowski Decider 02/02/2021
Hits beats too familiar and too bland, culminating in something of a forgettable snooze fest. Go to Full Review

estevan 11/14/2020 Good story & visuals - needed a better ending See more themoon r Nov 1 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. See more Jorge G Sep 2 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 See more Charles P Jul 19 Mart Wolff is smoking hot, I couldn't take my eyes 👀 off of him. His performance was mesmerizing 😳 See more Tony D Jun 13 Tedious and annoying. See more Mario V Apr 30 Good movie. Didn't like the ending. See more Read all reviews
