superb

this film is superb. it is an action adventure film, set in the time of the Vikings, when they tried to conquer North America.

'Pathfinder' tells the heroic story, of a young Norse boy left behind in a strange land, after the war party from his Viking clan, shipwrecks their longboats after an intense battle, on the North American, Eastern shores, some 600 years prior to the arrival of Christopher Columbus.

Despite his Viking Lineage and heritage, the boy is raised and nurtured by the North American Indians, that his Norse kinsmen set out to destroy.

Fifteen years later, as the Vikings return to stage another barbaric raid on his adopted village, the 25 year-old Norse warrior played by Karl Urban, who is known as Ghost, due to his pale complexion, wages a personal war to stop the Vikings' trail of death and destruction, when the Viking's slaughter the villagers.

Ghost, upon discovering the pile of bodies, left by his brethren from the North, sets out on a path to kill as many of the interlopers as he can, a suicide mission to be sure, but an honourable undertaking in the eyes of the young warrior.

in doing this, the young man begins, finding his own path, navigating between the two worlds.

On one hand he is born of the Vikings, and is inextricably tied to that culture, but he has also become firmly entrenched in the vastly different lifestyle of the native tribe.

Ghost must find out who he is; is he to be forever linked to the world of his birth and their bloodthirsty ways, or can he discover the path that will lead to happiness in his adoptive home.

by forging his own path, his destiny is revealed and his identity re-claimed.

well worth renting out.

Nothing original

Try Rambo, Apocalyptico, Conan all in one with a handsome hero and there you have it.

The colours are dark and grey so you don't see anything that is happenning, a shame.

AVPR: Aliens vs Predator � Requiem
- 14 Jan 2008
"Requiem" is right: this deadly sequel could kill off a horror franchise that goes back nearly three decades. As someone who grew up with the Alien series (hell, I don't mind telling you I misted up at Alien 4) it's depressing to see just how far the mighty have fallen. Course, as soon as they announced the first AVP flick, it was obvious the aliens had already lost the battle. Certainly in terms of prestige, it was game over - you can't mix it up with trash like the predators and retain even... Read more
