The Norseman

3/12/2025

There are some “Steve Austin” style slo-motion effects here, just not the little sound effect that went with it when Lee Majors did his bionic stuff. Well there’s nothing remotely bionic about this terrible Viking adventure that does nobody any favours - not least us watching. Anyway, it’s all about a prince “Thorvald” (Majors) who sets sail from Norway to try and find his father who had left years earlier to try and find America. Braving the worst that the Atlantic can throw at him, and an equally salt-drenched script, he arrives only to find that there are folks already there and that they are no slouches when it comes to defending their turf from these axe-wielding interlopers. Question is, is dad still alive and if so - can they find him and/or rescue him? This isn’t helped by Jesse Pe
