Rating: 2/4 --
Expectedly, there are large-scale, edge-of-the seat clashes and some classic savage scenes. There are other interesting touches and some quirky emotions. It's a philosophical play on what it means to be a warrior.

Those who remember the 3000 line epic from 8th grade English will be pleasantly surprised to learn they've scrapped the original plot altogether.

Avary and Gaiman lay on the sexual innuendo and adultery, fleshing out the character of Beowulf into a believably unreliable narrator.

It's a superb action flick that will have you wide-eyed in awe at its effects; just don't go expecting any kind of literary discussion.

Beowulf is pretty to look at, but lacks soul. Perhaps it is time for Robert Zemeckis to return to the land of the living.

It drops its epic posture and spews far too many double entendres.

Product Description:
Grab a mug of mead for this enchanting performance of the epic poem. Sung in Old English by Benjamin Bagby, BEOWULF is the story of the title hero and his battles against Grendel, the monster's mother, and a dragon. In addition to singing, Bagby mesmerizes the audience as he plays a traditional Anglo-Saxon harp. With optional Modern English subtitles.
