Apparently they didn't have time to Google the 600 different tribes in Papua New Guinea before going ahead with the screenplay. Maybe next time you'd want to keep it all fiction instead of poking fun at other people's cultures and traditions.

Writing is better than expected and I'm not glued to the screen to read the story. I was just about to go back to reading books. 30 streaming networks and nothing to listen to. Except for this. Looks like this Boomer doesn't have to get multi-lingual quite yet. Is it me or is cinema not for the English/American language anymore?

For a very unknown cast, the film was engaging, entertaining and worth the time to watch. While, box-office was dismal, the film on stream gives it new legs. If you're a fan of the show Vikings. Or if you like mythology, you'll enjoy this film. **Violence, nudity (brief), language. Not for kids at all.

Thoroughly entertaining, don't understand the bad reviews it's a great piece of work. Proper little adventure, go pagans stuff the money grabbing church. Well done 👍

For a movie to put on in the background when you are doing something else this movie is fine. I wish they would have kept to the myth of the ring as it is posted about online, and as I was raised hearing from my family that fled Latvia during WW2. For what it is it is good, it just wasn't what I was expecting.

Don't believe the bad reviews because they won't appreciate good movies. Underrated are normally better nowadays. This movie deserves a 8star rating but I will give it 10 since I enjoyed watching it.

I bet not many genuine movie fans get beyond ten minutes. Amateurish and very, very trashy. A waste of time and effort by all concerned. Trash, trash, trash and trash.

People who give this over 8 are probably Latvians. I don't want to call this one terrible, but it's certainly not good. First of all, the acting is not there, cringe inducing at times. Then you have colliding accents. Guys, Latvian and British accents never go together. It's either a lack of budget or just terrible accent coaches involved in production. Second, the storyline goes nowhere - it's just another of those historic movies with three main aspects - nature shots, battles and a filler love story. The cinematography is beautiful, but it does not help when you sit through something that's as entertaining as watching paint dry. Pagan King is totally fine for Latvia's 100 year commemoration, not a bit enough to step into a bigger market like it was advertised.
