This was fun. Nothing bad or that great but fun film to watch. Ben Mendelsohn was probably my favorite part of the film. Brie Larson's performance got better as the movie went on at first it was a bit wooden performance. Her and Samuel L. Jackson's buddy cop parts of the film were good too, their chemistry worked quite well. The humor was pretty good overall even thought there were some groaners too.

Otherwise an okay movie about the subject matter... but the way Emory Cohen acted and how Varg was written in this was painful to watch. I'm no fan of his person (that following on his YT is something else) Some of Burzum's music is good though. Every time "Varg" was on screen it took me so out of this film probably the best example of this is the fucking bad Joker laugh on the church burning scenes.

Watched half of this with a one friend as we were waiting a third one to come to a meetup. Might have liked this a bit more than in the first time seeing it. The bear is still creepy as the visuals are beautiful. Now that I knew what to expect out of the ending it worked better too. The score is also a great(started listening to that as I was writing this).

Fight scenes were nice and over the top. The theme song is playing on a loop in my head again for some days. The plot is simple and yet really hard to follow because there is so much random shit happening on screen.

I had seen like two films and probably would have skipped this show this year but my friend came to visit and watch (as we used to do years ago). Got 7 out of first 8 right on the Oscar Pool and then only 2 out of the rest.
