Valhalla Rising (Nicolas Winding Refn, 2009)

8/10
Finally got around to this one from Refn...it was good, exceptionally stylish (becoming a trend it seems) and very reminiscent of Herzog's Aguirre so of course I liked it. Mads Mikkelsen was also pretty great in a non-speaking role and I'm looking forward to seeing him in The Hunt where he won Best Actor at Cannes. The cinematography is beautiful, making me kind of wish I watched it on Blu-Ray instead of Netflix and the sound design is sharp too.
