Vikings: Wrath of the Northmen (2013)
Island Raid
"Wrath of the Northmen" is a brutal episode depicting the savage butchery and pillage of the island in the west, inhabited by Christian monks. This is a true historical event, that is known to be the beginning of the Viking Age.
The acting seems to lack a certain level of depth - Ragnar had no problems eliminating any opposition to his plan brutally, without any effort to reason diplomatically. It definitely portrays the Vikings as uncivilized and barbaric.
Ragnar and his crew easily take over the island from the monks, and set sail back with their blood-stained loot.
It remains to be seen if the Earl would forgive Ragnar and his crew now that he found the land in the west, considering we have witnessed nothing but brutality amongst the Vikings.
