AARP Movies for Grownups

It’s a journey down a resonant rabbit hole with Mikkelsen, hilariously permed, fearlessly silly, emotionally complex and endlessly endearing.

Rated: 5/5

‘The Last Viking' sports a cockeyed streak a mile wild, trafficking in the best kind of straight-faced absurdism—wry, but simultaneously genuine and sincere.

The Daily Beast

A big-hearted fable of self-actualization, tolerance, and togetherness.

Radio Times

Mikkelsen is glorious, but so is Kaas as a man with serious anger management problems. Somehow, despite the bloodshed, this is a genuinely sweet story about sibling love.

Rated: 4/5

Movies We Texted About

[Not] interested in playing safe, whether in tone, setting or message. That absolute refusal to sanitise any of the bleaker topics here makes The Last Viking a brave movie indeed. It’s just a little too raw, in every sense of the word.

Screen Zealots

Dares audiences to laugh at the unlikeliest of characters, then makes them care deeply in spite of themselves. Blending dark comedy, brutal violence, and unexpected heart, it’s a wickedly entertaining ride that’s as disturbing as it is disarmingly human.

I think it's a pointless movie. I don't think there was a real plot, and I don't feel you got any answers to what the movie actually started out focusing on. A very lame film

Mads Mikkelsen en Nikolaj Lie Kaas zijn briljant als twee broers verwikkeld in een duister en pijnlijk komisch Vikingverhaal. De film combineert zwarte humor met rauwe emotie en prachtige cinematografie. Wat begint als een absurde familieruzie groeit uit tot een meeslepend en visueel sterk drama. Met scherpe dialogen, droogkomische momenten en indrukwekkend acteerwerk is The Last Viking een originele en onvergetelijke zwarte komedie. Een must-see voor liefhebbers van films die durven te schuren.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars
