Bad acting from just about all actors including Nicole Kidman EXCECT Willem Dafoe who, unfortunately, had only a minor role. I lost complete interest about 3/4 of the way through. Some of the dialog was so ludicrous it was funny (towards the end of the movie). A complete waste of time and money, and this from a girl who loved The Vikings and The Last Kingdom. The only redeeming quality was the beautiful scenery and cinematography. Probably should get 1 star. Do yourself a favor and skip it!
