Best two reviews:
1) Entertainment Weekly - When it comes to crazy, violent, semidelirious, testosterone-laden, proto-Viking tales about a mute visionary one-eyed warrior who breaks skulls, Valhalla Rising is pretty great. (Rating: 83) Read Full Review >
2) Empire - Valhalla Rising gets into your mind and stays there. You can argue what, if anything, it’s trying to say, but it is impressive cinema. (Rating: 80) Read Full Review >

Worst two reviews:
11) New York Post - Visually striking but portentous and pretentious. (Rating: 38) Read Full Review >
12) New York Observer - Valhalla Rising is nothing more than an updated version of the kind of time-honored Hollywood Viking movie Kirk Douglas used to do in his sleep, which means lots of inhuman, bone-crunching violence and no plot. (Rating: 25) Read Full Review >
