Bjorn, Harald, Hvitserk and King Olaf and their armies attack Kattegat but Ivar and his men surprisingly defeat them. Out of the blue, Freydis meets them and shows a secret passage to Kattegat.

"Ragnarok" is a grand finale of season 5 of "Vikings". The new battle of Kattegat is impressively realistic and brutal with excellent plot points. My vote is nine.

Title (Brazil): "Ragnarok"

I never review, but i couldnt stand it i had to say something.. First of all. Why the hell they would bring up that big barn over their ram only AFTER archers slaughtered half of Borns fighters? And why wouldnt Fredo girl just push down that overacting cripple to the ground on him or even better slice him open, since they were all alone in the hall? And since they haven't found the cripple why they wouldn't shut all gates for customs purposes, some passenger traffic check? Lots and lots of holes At least the fighting scenes was nice and gg Ubbe returning after all the action is over like the cops showing up after all the action in old movies.

Anyhow i just finished watching this episode at the time of writing this review and all i can say sixth season will have to try hard to catch on for me, since Lageerta and her spirit side looks like crap (so does her new haircut), Floki is no more (great actor and natural mystic influence in the show) this is disappointing, since i even liked his Icelamd trip just a little bit (hoping for some mysticism in the show). We know that Ivar that waste of an actor is still alive and probably still will be main villain in the 6th season, will probably return with great army and some new genius inventions blah blah. I miss Jarl Borg as a villain so natural, that actor deserved the Blood Eagle

6 season worth watching? i don't know (maybe just for a relieving sight if they gonna intend to flay the boneless alive like Boltons would do)

My 10 points only goes for seeing Travis Fimmel. Fight scenes were totally mainless but I can say it was the best episode of these terrible season. Note: I gave the 10 points first time after the Bishop Heahmund's death. This character shouldn't have killed! He keept alive the season 5!

The season has come to an end. A good season, but the god story plot was meh, I do love Ivar though and on the battlefield is where he truly shines! He had to rule with fear because if anyone saw him as weak (easier because he is a cripple), they would simply take the throne, I understand why he had to, but still didn't like it. I just wanna see the sons of Ragnar fight christians and not settle down, but what we got was still great! Intense battle sequences, cannot wait for season 6!

Damn Ivar, Your very monster try to kill his own brother you r gone too far.

Last night's episode of Vikings was so epic! I'm so happy that Bjorn is king now. Next season just can't get here fast enough #Vikings

Best episode of Vikings so far with a glimpse of ragnor the expectation are high for season 6 hail Bjorn Ironside

It's really quite troubling how skewed IMDB allows itself to be now. And Sad how desperate Tv(movies too) studios try to skew the public perception as not being accurate and creating the illusion that most people are not unhappy with the direction. I guess history channel has very little else going for it so they're putting all there cents into freelance writers to give different impressions to bring in more viewers, it's pretty obviously there only hit show. But looking at the reviews from this episode, you'll see the glowing ones are only reviewing vikings, or perhaps one other show to give them more legitimacy. But for people who use this site often, that's easy to see through.

To the actual episode, it wasn't bad by any means. I almost gave it a 8/10. The battle scenes were top notch. We didnt have to suffer through close to as much Ivar crud as i thought we might. The initial attack was great. His wife turning against him was pretty obvious early on, i was just waiting for those scenes to unfold. I kinda hoped the whole victory wouldn't rely on her. But thats the route they took, cause you cant outsmart Ivar in the writers minds i guess... Since the series has veered so far from what historical accounts we currently have of this time period, i was truly hoping they would just kill him off and finally be done with this saga and move on.

Perhaps to one where Bjorn is in conflict with Harold in Kattegat/ moving against Alfred. Or something along those lines. But no.. we have more Ivar to look forward to with the terrible characterization and acting i suppose.......? I hope its limited next season and they write him off after seeing how bad his reception by fans was this season.

I can live with the historical inaccuracies since this time period is all based off myths more than anything solid, i turn my critical mind off with anything i remotely see as fiction even if it's based on fact. So why dont they take those liberties to get the show on track to something enjoyable episode to episode. I only liked 1/5th of the current season... and those liked episodes dont stand up at all to the first couple of seasons..

LISTEN PRODUCERS/WRITERS OF THE NEXT SEASON, THE MAJORITY WANT A SHIFT BACK TO THE WAYS OF OLD. DON'T IGNORE US. HEED OUR CRIES. MAKE THE SHOW SOMETHING WORTH OUR TIME AGAIN!

What was the plan for attack? Just go without shields till they kill us all? And of course Ivar had time to kill his wife put her on bed and escapes without problem while 4 people fights 30 and another 100 watching with popcorn

Such a great power to have the will and the mind to kill the woman he loved and get betrayed by all his brothers.

Vikings was so epic! I'm so happy that Bjorn is king now. Next season just can't get here fast enough #VikingS

Not a single person thought it would be a good idea to guard Ivar's secret exit way? You know the exact one they used to get inside??

It feels as if this entire season could've been deleted. Bjorn and Lagertha escaped from Kategatt in the beginning of the season because of Ivar and now they're back. Ivar, of course, got away, and they killed half of the new characters as if the audience knew and cared about them to be emotionally affected.

As expected, Floki didn't appear in this episode which marks the idea that 'FLOKI'S STORYLINE SUCKED.'

It is officially the worst season of Vikings.
