I am a Beowulf lover and was looking forward to this movie! Of course I had wanted to see this at the iMax, but now am so glad that I didn't, because the gory violence would have just been even more over the top. I mean, I know Beowulf is a violent story, but squirty blood and crunchy skulls was really, shall we say, overkill. So little remained of the actual plot line of this classic story! And please..what 14 year old boy doesn't want to be seduced by an Angelina Jolie demon? Naked. I had had much higher hopes for a Neil Gaiman effort. But I watched the whole thing. How did they get Malkovich and Hopkins and everyone else to do this?
