 |  | Beowulf; violent but artfully done |  |
The unrated version of Beowulf is more graphic than the theatrical release but it is the same story. The artwork is astounding and it is easy to forgot that these are not live actors you are watching. The story is well done too. It might be a fun game though to count how many times the hero declares himself "Beowulf".
July 25, 2008This movie was awesome to watch. I also enjoyed watching how they made this film as they had a tight budget.
July 17, 2008| | | good movie bad tellin of epic | |
this is a good movie dont get me wrong there but considering the historical treasure that is the epic of beaowulf this film came no where near honoring the story that has been dated back b4 written lanuage!! one of the oldest stories and they just killed it..... if u watch the movie please read the poem by reading it youll get a more indepth vision of this great story.but as i said its a good movie but a badd version of beaowulf..left me in a state of limbo..
July 11, 2008This movie has great graphics, great actors/actresses (Hopkins, Jolie, etc), great writers (Writer of the comic, Sandman).... but it doesn't work. It is like mixing pizza and ice cream together because they are your favorite foods. Unfortunately.... Beowulf is a dog. Avoid this movie unless you are renting.
July 9, 2008This re-telling of the great tale of Beowulf is an utter failure in every way. The animation is dank, dark, dull. The characters look more like uncomfortable robots than imitations of living creatures. The basic story is trashed and Grendel's mother (the animated Jolie) is ridiculous. Read the epic itself* or "Grendel" by John Gardner. Or see the movie "Beowulf and Grendel", but skip this one.
*There is a decent poetic translation by Seamus Heaney... but read a prose translation if you have to!
