It is not often that a movie draws upon Nordic mythology for its subject matter, and HCC film professors Marie Westhaver and Mike Giuliano agree in this podcast episode that "The Northman" benefits from its historical research about the Vikings. However, they also agree that the film is extremely brutal and has an excessive running time. The revenge-driven plot often seems to be submerged within the carnage. The film stars Alexander Skarsgard, Nicole Kidman and Anya Taylor-Joy, who certainly earned their battle pay. Marie and Mike also discuss the animated film "The Bad Guys," about a band of fast-talking animals involved in a criminal heist. Marie and Mike agree that it has some funny dialogue, but also that the film has too many car chases and other scenes that are busy for the sake of being busy.
