Title: What a way to ruin a classic.
Review: I had high hopes for this movie. I'm a major fan of this genre, and was hoping I'd found another clasic. After all, the movie was based on a epic. How could they go wrong? The way they went wrong was to add modern speech to the film's dialogue. Everytime I became immersed in the realistic look of the movie, a contemporary phrase or profanity would snap me out of the film. It happened time and time again. It became comical. After about an hour, I ejected the Beowulf and Grendel DVD from the player, put it back in the case, and returned it to the rental store. I haven't any desire to see the rest.
