Good Viking Movie

"The Long Ships" was a lot more interesting than "The Long Knarrs."

The movie said they found one Viking long ship that was 120 feet long. They had thought that the legends of ships that long were myths.

I was amazed at the territories they conquered. A LOT of land. Also why they called it "Iceland" when it was mostly green and "Greenland" when 85% of its land surface is covered with ice averaging two miles thick!

All in all a wonderful movie. Filmed in IMAX. Still looked good on my screen.
