A man with a remarkable talent for violence must fight to survive when he sets out on a remarkable journey in this fantasy from director Nicolas Winding Refn. One-Eye (Mads Mikkelsen) is the nickname given to a nameless, mute warrior who has become a slave to Barde (Alexander Morton), a wealthy Scotsman who obtained One Eye for his remarkable fighting skills. One Eye is a fierce warrior but shows little loyalty to his master, and when the opportunity presents itself, One Eye murders Barde and his mercenaries and sets off on his own, with a young boy (Maarten Stevenson) tagging along to speak on his behalf. Eager to leave Denmark behind in favour of freedom and adventure, One Eye throws in his lot with a band of Christian Vikings, who've set out on an ambitious quest to travel to Jerusalem and claim the Holy Land as their own. But the voyage to the Holy City is a difficult one, and the Vikings are met with violent resistance, forcing One Eye to rely on his talents as a warrior to protect himself and his young apprentice.

Not convinced.
MMMMM, not entirely convinced. Not the worst film I've ever seen but not great either. Was average at best. Not entirely sure there was much point to the ... read more »
Tom Charity reports on the latest from the Coens and Clooney at a star-studded Toronto International Film Festival "I like Cannes," director Jon Amiel teased, introducing opening night attraction Creation to a momentarily slighted Toronto audience. "Palm trees... the Riviera... I do like Cannes. And Venice. Berlin. But I LOVE Toronto!" It was nicely delivered, and of course the estimable British filmmaker had the audience eating out of the golden palm of his hand, especially after explaining... Read more
