September 8, 2009This gory battle adventure is stealing from a lot of films but doesn't have much to offer all by itself. A little "Last of the Mohicans", a lot of "13th warrior" and lots of violence. The script would fit on one sheet of paper, the dialogs on even less. Conan was babbling compare...( read more)

January 10, 2009Vikings were business men, sure they delt with business with axe and sword, but I doubt they went there to slaughter. For one thing the indians had nothing of value to loot.
Anyway, I liked the movie. -
October 12, 2008Don't think this has anything to do with reality. I have seen the 1000 AD Viking settlement in Newfoundland; they were not this wild. But history aside, it makes for a fine good vs. evil story.

June 21, 2008I was somewhere in the middle on this one. It was a decent film with good action and a decent story but something left me wanting. Im still not sure what.

November 5, 2009Makes itself redundant with all the unneeded flash. I don't know what it's trying to be, but it's not it.

November 2, 2009La verdad me dio coraje. Hacen parecer a los Vikingos como simples "barbaros", siendo que en realidad fueron una gran cultura que dio origen a decenas de culturas mas: Ingleses, Rusos, Alemanes.. todos decienden de ellos.
Los personajes estan muy estereotipados. Nada apegado a ...( read more) -
October 29, 2009The movie has strong images. I liked the whole atmosphere of the pictures. This is really a good work.
What makes me doubt about the quality of the movie is its violence. Ok, it is a fight to survive of the native indians against the vikings, but it is to violent.
Some more sce...( read more) -

Strives to be a latter-day Conan the Barbarian. full review

Kyle Smith, New York Post
The movie takes us on a journey to an ugly, contentious period in our misty, ancient past -- all the way back to four months ago, when Apocalypto came out. full review

Pete Hammond, Maxim
Director Marcus Nispel, best known for his music video shoots delivers all style and no substance, sacrificing story for a good sword up the ass everytime. full review

Liam Lacey, Globe and Mail
There's a fan's sincere hokeyness about Pathfinder that makes the experience relatively painless, in spite of the number of people who get tortured, decapitated or dismembered. full review

Claudia Puig, USA Today
All cinematic creativity seems to have focused on devising the most repellent ways to maim and murder. full review

Colin Covert, The Minneapolis Star Tribune
Loud and overbusy but never exciting, Pathfinder is an action film only insofar as airborne prop heads and severed appendages equal action. full review

November 24, 2008lmao, my friends comments are so hillarius, wtf on tarzan meets vikings?! LMAO!!!
I liked this, although I found a few scenes here and there to be somewhat familiar from other movies, twas still pretty entertaining and averagely gorey. Maan, just take a gander at Karl Urban mmmmmmmmhmmmmmm!! ;D!! -
February 21, 2008I have always wondered about; if Native americans ever encountered vikings. In this movie it shows that. not much acting or anything of sort.If I can I'll watch it again. Maybe it's because I'm native american..

August 5, 2007DUDE! OMFG, this movie rocks yo!
LOL at some of the comments of this type. This movie was worse than 300 and that's a very low blow.
This flick is for people who like video game action and only that in their movies.
Just goes to show that writers for movies have run out of ideas. The 300 Spartans in 1962 and now this '07 Pathfinder a loose remake of Veiviseren, a 1987 Norwegian film. -
August 4, 2007I couldn't make it through the first 40 minutes of this movie. The acting was Jerry Springer caliber. Even the action scenes were obvious bad sci-fi channel green screens. I had really high hopes for this movie but when I finally did get to see it I was appalled completely. I'd rather have a lobotomy then be forced to watch it ever again.

this movie is crazy cool,
1,000,000,000,000 thumbs up!!!!!!! -
April 16, 2007It wasn't terrible, but it wasn't as good as other movies. I think it is one you have to judge for yourself so when in doubt just wait for rental.

April 16, 2007I agree with previous comments. This movie just lacked in so many areas.There was alot of potential for greatness, considering the popular book and graphic novel of the same title. Unfortunately it wasn't well presented or in any way very satisfying. If better camera angels and steady filiming had been accomplished, It could have been a quality film comparable to 300. The camera is my biggest complaint but not my only 1, everything seemed a bit dull ,there wasn't much support to the lackluster story, in terms of soundtrack or acting. Very unfavorable.
