Pretty well done for a cheap adventure film of that era. At least none of the Vikings were wearing glasses or had Brilcreme haircuts.
While I was looking it up I found this one too: The Pride and the Passion. Made in 1957, it starred Cary Grant, Frank Sinatra, and Sophia Loren, and was set in 19th century Spain. A huge mob of people hauled a very ornate and huge cannon over mountain roads for most of the film. At the end they knocked down the walls of some city with it. Used big rocks for cannon balls. Classic line from the film: "I'm not asking you to die, I'm just asking you to sweat a little bit. And you can tell you grand kids about the sweat when you're old."
The Gun (Cassell Military Paperbacks) by C.S. Forester (Paperback - Aug 11, 2005)
Yes, only caught a glimpse of it late night once.
The plot is eerily similar to a book called "the Gun" about an oversized cannon on the Iberian Peninsula during the Spanish Rebellion against Napoleon's Army.
