Out of all the folklore in the world, Norse mythology has always had a charm to it. We have seen countless renditions over the past through cartoons, games and even Marvel movies. Ragnarok expertly captures a tale as old as time and weaves it uniquely into the modern era. A small Norwegian town is hit with a series of climate-disrupting events, and within the chaos, a young boy is summoned to divinity by lightning. Ragnarok, translated as “Doom of the gods” in Old Norse, takes shape in this small town, and a thrilling 2 seasons follow that is worth every moment.
