Netflix!

Cool, since my eight bucks a month subscription is a sunk cost, that means I can watch it essentially for free!

I'll check it out.

I watched the first episode.

The acting is OK and the scenery is gorgeous but damn the story line sucks.

I can't believe the decedents of Ragnar Lodbrok would take shit from the Russians like that.

Netflix is indeed a good value. A couple of good movies I stumbled upon recently:

"The Best offer"

"Leon, the Professional"

Agree, both of those are good.

I also enjoyed the "Longmire" series.

One I got past dealing with the fact that the actor who plays the main character bears a resemblance to George W. Bush in the face.

I also do not think so.

A family member says Norway is beautiful and super clean.
I noticed from the film a distinct modern touch as to architecture.

Ragnar could see Norway from his house.
