For some reason, this one didn't really connect with me.

And I usually don't mind more creative remixes.

Slate.com is not a good place for reviews for this kind of series, but things are not looking good.

I watched the remake first and I actually liked it more than the original (marginally). The original was great, but I honestly thought the remake was more entertaining (and I have no issues watching "older" movies).

The second one was solid as well, but as often happens with sequels, it didn't quiet match the first one.

That being said, I am looking forward to the third one.

Did not know this was a "Jötunn" specifically, but then again this you don't really need to know this to enjoy the movie.
