Got to love the historical accuracy in this film. Oh wait, there isn’t any...by the time of the Crusades the ‘Vikings’ had become completely Christian and actually joined the crusades.
Fun film, but was RIFE with historical inaccuracies. I understand lowering the number of people defending Rochester Castle to heighten the drama, but they lowered the actual number too much. Historically there weren't "less than twenty men" defending this castle. From what I've heard, there were actually somewhere around 95 Knights and 45 Men-At-Arms defending Rochester. They were still outnumbered by their attackers, but not as much as is shown in this film.
So at least the castle had around 140 men defending it, they are outnumbered for sure ... ... but Knight, and Men-at-arms !?? Now that was impresive, it make more sence to me when they manage to hole it for that long. ( Did most of them count as archer ? I thought they should have a numbers of dedicated archer to men the wall, while the rest will fill the gap in there defendsive )
@@mr.bluefox3511 Well, that's the thing. In actual history, John WON the Siege of Rochester. The film implies that the siege lasted for many months, but in actual history, the siege lasted about seven WEEKS, and Rochester fell because the defenders surrendered out of hunger (they had run out of food supplies and simply couldn't fight any longer because they were starving).
where was the long sword? didnt see one i did see several arming swords, a few broadswords and what i think was a bastard sword...handle was too long for an arming sword, blade too short for a long
Most film from this time isn't very historically accurate, it's something we history buffs have had to accept for a long time now. Though I'd like to point out that just because they were created 100 years apart doesn't mean that they were never used concurrently. The Dane axe is a damn good axe. If it ain't broke don't fix it. So it's not impossible for people to have been still using them by the time the longsword was created.
If the rocket-propelled arrows weren't enough... 2:31 my word, how fake is that axe? Not even the fact that it's clearly not actually metal, it's double-sided! It looks as though they were using Hagar the Horrible as a reference point...
As a security personnel officer, I advise everyone of you not to abuse a noble man who is wearing his White 4:02"Wig" hair he seems very humble and "nangke ancin" to the core values of human race identity groups ( Ca.) on the planet earth.
It's a good entertaining movie. But I've seen how trebuchet's work in action. They're less than impressive although they can do damage to wooden fornications & flesh. Against stone walls less effective but perhaps over time with repeated blows against a single point could knock a small hole in a narrow wall. I doubt they trebuchets & other medieval siege engines had the range shown in this movie. Perhaps 100-200 yards max. Regular bows (not longbows) probably only effective to 150 yard max. Medieval armies fought much closer than movies would have you believe. Historically, digging under the wall & weakening the ground underneath was a more effective siege tactic.
In the Roman war: 0:33 a noble laughable looking senior commander who is wearing his "red gown cloth and black hat" has defected himself from the Republic of Rome was a mainly parliamentary oppositional member who has decide to adventure further to another unknown lands known today as the Great Britain England. 1:10 a traitor( noble senior commander) of his own English soldiers ( imagine how he has contact and invited other rival soldiers whom came by boats from distance lands.
My questionable questions: what could you gestures or not gesture spectaculating physiological warfare footage acts: 0:24 to 2:28 thrilling sense of humours and behaviours amongst most tallest and brilliance warlord commanders whom are rising their long swords on their hands. 3:18 "Behind you" said by a "Yan tole" assaulting his most funniest senior commanders @3:48 one who is saying "shut the back up" remind me of a formidable Uncle who is a formidable commander of the Koyl Avenue Saskatoon Canada.
Costume are may be ok and even fight the story is shit Norseman were Christian john used German Flemish mercenary is like having Waffen SS as mercenary for Sadam Hussein goops fighting and Viking did speak polish

Yea they probably had been catholics for a couple centuries
You would still have mercenary Viking descendants.
I'm not an engineer, or a physicist. However, I'm almost certain even the best arrows would not go as far as the Treb was launching the rock.
Well sorry to tell you BUT your wrong. Look up arrow distance and it will amaze you.
@@johndickson435 the farther the arrow goes, the less power. They rarely EVER shot in the air like that.

also, at the time the castle was part of a town iirc....so they didnt even get that right

Kevin Norwood what movie 🎥 is this?
@@kodesh1674 It’s a 2011 movie named “Ironclad”.
Ironclad is such a fun movie. I call him King John Adams.
The fact that the “Viking Era” had gone by this time in history obviously escaped the Director....now where are the Romans?.....
They technically still was Norse
Norse means north lol
Are those long swords and Dane axes? Those weapons are 100 years apart from their given creation.
Yeah- this scene is far from historically accurate.....still entertaining tho.
where was the long sword? didnt see one
i did see several arming swords, a few broadswords and what i think was a bastard sword...handle was too long for an arming sword, blade too short for a long
Counterweight trebuchet was also very weird at that time, too

Evan Shepherd what movie is this?
The crusader saves the day

Better than battle of Winterfall
You are probably one of those people who said the scenes were too dark?
@@lennertcornette It was indeed dark tho. I pulled my curtains in and I still can't see shit
@@lennertcornette and? It was bloody dark what do you mean?

Norse warriors speaking hungarian? Now thats new. Do they also eat bats and snakes?
@Physicalyx Hacks about hungary set in XII century england

Dark ages with stone castles? Or medieval era with dark age norsemen?
And the crusader teardrop shield in dark ages or the medieval?
There were no stone castles between 500 and 1600?
you have to watch the film to understand the historial context
This is from that movie Ironclad

The age of vikings end on1066 whit Harald Hadrada death.

Either very lame trebuchets or those are extremely powerful bows shot by gods....lol

But they are Vikings
Are those trebuchets or cannons ?
