Great Irish made animation
Michael from Mayo, 17 Jul 2011
I thought this was brilliant. The animation was very reminiscent of Genndy Tartakovsky style(the guy behind Samurai Jack) so it has a ery simplistic style but in other scenes it can get quite complex, it manages to be wuite unique in it's own way throwing in lots celtic style imagery, some of the visuals wuld remind one of the book of kells itself. The story is quite good and it gets fairly dark in places, particularly with the demonic portrayal of the viking hordes. It's pretty short and sweet too, I would recommend this to both kids and adults, it's well worth the watch. It was nominated for a best animated feature at the oscars too, good to see Irish made film do so well.
