Mortal (2020)
Directed by Andre Ovredal this film stars Nat Wolff, Iben Arkelie and Per Frisch. Norwegian police try to deal with a young man manifesting strange powers similar to those of the Norse god Thor.
Essentially this is a super hero/villain origin film with a more grounded take, a serious Thor if you will. There are enjoyable parts to this film but it is rather predictable and never does anything interesting with the bigger questions raised by the plot. There are decent performances especially from Iben Arkelie who stakes her claim to the title of Nordic Jennifer Lawrence.
3/5
