Horrible beginning. It's sort of like a high school student watched Monty Python and then did a bad imitation.
It's sort of like when you're watching that late night show on Saturday and most the skits are just a long run on joke, isn't this annoying. Isn't this funny just because it's so annoying and doesn't end and keeps going on. Great costumes. Great actors. It should be great because the actors are great. OK I'm just at the beginning. Let's see if it gets better. A theme emerged at the beginning which is that Erik has a heart which isn't right for a pillaging viking. The next thing puts him on a quest. 50 minutes in and it's the same type of sketch. Really annoying music and the joke is that the annoying music doesn't stop. This fight scene at 65 minutes is good. The scene ending at 80 minutes is good. Well played. I can't tell you if Tim Robbins gets to Zihuatanejo but I am invested in the characters now and I do like what happens. The ending is like Space Odyssey with a more clear, more Vikingesque meaning
