The disc editions of The Northman hit stores on June 7, 2022, including a Collector’s Edition from Focus Features/SDS with 4k Blu-ray, Blu-ray, and Digital Copy. Here’s a review of the 4k Blu-ray presentation of The Northman.
Movie
Robert Eggers (The Lighthouse) directs this epic historical action film that was co-written by Eggers and Icelandic poet/screenwriter Sjón. The film stars Alexander Skarsgård (who also produced), Nicole Kidman, Claes Bang, Anya Taylor-Joy, Ethan Hawke, music icon Björk, and Willem Dafoe.
Video
Excellent video quality enhanced by HDR delivered via Dolby Vision and HDR10 makes this movie a home theater must-own. The cinematography by Jarin Blaschke (The Lighthouse) is exquisite and the color palette complements the dark, epic plot of the film. 4k video is exceptionally sharp throughout.
Audio
The supplied Dolby Atmos track provides an immersive environment that you won’t forget with pounding base and environmentals offering a truly dynamic audio experience. The soundtrack by Robin Carolan and Sebastian Gainsborough underscores this thriller that often delves into the psychological horrors of the time period.
Bonus Features
There is plenty of bonus features to delve deep into the making of The Northman, including several featurettes such as Shooting the Raid in which viewers can get a behind-the-camera look at the production. Deleted and extended scenes provide additional content that was eventually cut from the theatrical release. And, feature commentary with director Robert Eggers offers even more insight from the creator/writer.
