We’re not just reviewing The Northman, we’re reviewing The North, man. That’s right, Robert Eggers’ is back with an epic viking blockbuster that is sure to blow a lot of minds, mostly in a good way. We discuss Eggers’ brief filmography to date (The Witch and The Lighthouse) and debate where The Northman lands in his ongoing saga of twisted machismo fables.
