what "primitive" survival meant. It was Homeric, in the true sense. It wasn't meant to be an FX-filled action film or a ridiculous action hero film that happened to occur in the faraway past. Nor was it a cutesy Malick-opera. It was gritty, ugly, and violent--- though it showed a humanism not unexpected in man. Not a great film, no, but certainly no "Avatar."

I never thought any of these things regarding Valhalla Rising...
"an FX-filled action film or a ridiculous action hero film that happened to occur in the faraway past, a cutesy Malick-opera."
and I stand by my assessment, Drive was less wordy and dialogue driven instead it was about survival.

I did not mind VR and even learned what homeric meant today!
Now if I could only fully understand...
