Title: This Film Was a Waste of Time
Review: I agree with the reviewer who said, "Read the book." Or better yet, see Thirteenth Warrior, which is another fanciful rendition of this myth.Yeah, it's a B movie. It even has glimmers of interesting character development and plot line in it. But it's also-as one reviewer recognized--a pseudo video game, an imitation of an imitation of a life. It's a hostile, cretin, pubescent violence fantasy, festering in a cracked mirror. Beowulf, in the original tale, saved people from the monsters and nobly sacrificed himself. In this moronic film, he is a sociopathic "swiss-army-knife" who wants us to feel sorry for him. BEOWULF, the film, is gratuitous violence run amok. Who is the real monster in this film? Who really cares if the main character gets et? Everybody, not just mostly everybody, should have died in this film. They were all despicable.
