  • If you can't recognize awesome when you see it, you are simply lost to mankind.

    Wise to judge things by their value! a fool does it by his prenotions.

  • wait, wasnt the dragon killed in its lair?

  • 240p we meet again...

  • I watched this in our 8th grade English class... and I was like, "WTF?"

    Still a pretty awesome movie/book :)

  • It's one thing to have Beowulf screw Grendel's mother instead of killing her. It's one thing for the dragon to be Beowulf's son by Grendel's mother. It's one thing for Beowulf to become king of Denmark instead of Geatland. It's one thing for Hrothgar to have screwed Grendel's mother too. It's one thing for Beowulf to fight Grendel naked just 'cuz. What tears it for me is when Beowulf says "We are GEETS."

    I'm joking of course. This entire movie is bullshit.

  • its pronounced "yay-ats" not GEETS, this movie is stupid as hell, not even close to the original..

  • Honestly i thought the movie was soooo much better than the poem im not saying the story was bad but it was very straight forward good vs evil and dry the movie brought it into a modern era with a more complex story and characters who hav emotions and flaws

  • the movie was alright even though the story was inacurate, i've seen worser adaptations ! Beowulf giving out one-liners in london/cockney accent was bloody wicked, in-it :)

  • Beowulf my ass this is some bullshit the movie is not even close to the original story if they want to make shit like this they should have made it with a different name and characters because this movie is a disgrace to the original beowulf poem! >:F

  • Why, Monty, why?

  • wtf are you doing here 240p

  • Fuck Monty <3

  • Who the fuck is monty?

  • Comment removed

  • God dammit monty

  • 5:00

  • Ancient German/ viking middle european people... they are monsters. 

  • he beat his ear to a pulp and ripped off his arm...while he was naked....what a way to go

  • I think it's hilarious that this guy made the grendel fight longer than the fight with the dragon.

  • i wish grendel would shut up

  • "I've come to kill your monsta" 

  • The graphics in this were fucking amazing.

  • ''a little thing like thisnt going to finish you off''

    he cut off his own arm at the armpit and fell down a cliff...lol wow

  • Interesting fact: My Lit teacher hates this movie.

  • you missed the best part of the movie "IM THE TEETH IN THE DARKNESS, TALLEND IN THE NIGHT ...... I AM BEOUWULF!!!!!!!!!!!"

  • bethesda ripped off this movie for skyrim lol

  • @MaTchBoOkPoEt Hell no. Any game could have viking looking dudes and dragons.

  • I agree that the book was better. the book is ALWAYS better because you can create your own picture.

    but you have to admit, the fight scenes were executed brilliantly if you werent comparing the book to the movie the entire time.

  • I was going to write an essay on Beowulf for my English course, and came here to find some inspiration, and this bloody well isn't helping O_____O

  • 2:43 EAR RAPE

  • and I just wasted 2 hours watching the whole movie...

  • damn grendel is uuuuuugly

  • Wanna see the most epic Beowulf/Grendel fight scene? A simple search for

    Beowulf Parkour

    will suffice. Prepare to be baffled.

  • Why isnt there a decent fucking clip from this movie on youtube..

  • grendel speaks either swedish norwgian

  • HELLO FUCKER!

  • Beowulf vs Bayonetta...

    guess what they both share during combat? :p

  • so.. we meets again.. 240p..

  • Best beowulf and grendel fight scene is the video Beowulf Parkour

  • ok, why the hell is beowulf fighting grendel naked?

  • @BigBallaShotCalla15 because he will fight him as his equal. grendel has no weapons. therefore, beowulf has no weapons.

    howd u not know that?

  • @gerald218 because nothing in the original poem said anything about beowulf being naked, this is just hollywood going against the literature... which is disgusting considering how the literature was ten times better.

  • @BigBallaShotCalla15 hmm i havnt read that in....years. so if its not in the poem then yea, dumb on hollywoods part.

    movies usually do one or more things to piss of readers =P

  • @gerald218 Lol i know. Here's an expression of my anger: Grrrrr

  • @BigBallaShotCalla15 u r quite angry =)

    i do recall the movie not being anywhere near the poem anyway. like the whole him killn the mom never even happend in the film.... he got hrunting (and lost it?) but never wa slike OH BIG SWORD TO KILL MOMMAY....wait...maybe his penis was symbolism to be the big sword? @_@

  • so they raped the original epic poem -_-

  • @KatanasEdge15 Cuz that was soooo interesting.

  • @KatanasEdge15 yes, in short

  • very very very very ogly

  • the book was SOOOO much better. I mean, man it was already innacurrate enough, but when it came to Grendel's mother, the movie just got plain out stupid. Beowulf gets laid instead of killing a demon that should look ferocious and ugly. Hygelac is not even in the movie (ARE YOU KIDDING ME!?)....the dragon is Beowulf's son....like wtf...

  • @SilentPhenomed the book is better...

    well, have you read it in the original language? :3

  • @DiamondClaw1991 I read the one where it had the original language and then the translated one lol. I can't understand the original language, that's like very old English lol XD

  • @SilentPhenomed well, that English was spoken 1000 years ago :D

  • Comment removed

  • @SilentPhenomed Yeah Grendel's mom was def not supposed to be a milf...

  • @SilentPhenomed

    that's just hollywood man, what can you do.

  • @SilentPhenomed it was actually a poem but definitely agreed

  • @SilentPhenomed Who cares man? It's just a movie, entertainment material, and a damn good one at that.

  • @SlayerRiley A lot of people care actually. It's another example that Hollywood takes a proper and amazing piece of work and turns it into crappy misconceptions of crap.

  • @SilentPhenomed To be honest, I agree with you. Hollywood coulda' done far better on alot of movies. You can't remake a movie after the book with every tiny detail, but that isn't much of an excuse for this. Yes indeed, even though I never read the old story of Beowulf, I'm pretty sure alot of stuff happened in the movie, that didn't happen in the book. But I'd rather not wank about it, since it's still a pretty epic movie, even though it's very flawful.

  • @SlayerRiley TBH, Beowulf the book...isn't all that complicated...it could have EASILY been made into a movie. It's BARELY complicated at all. But the directors just went way off on a tangent. Let me put it like this...Grendel's mother in the movie has sex with Beowulf and they have a dragon baby. In the book, the mother is pissed and gets her head chopped off and the dragon was a mystical creature as the final showdown for a true epic hero...not just some simple abomination.

  • @SilentPhenomed Balls to Hollywood then.

  • @SilentPhenomed GANDALF'S MOTHER? She mush be a thousand years old! :O

    Did he have sexual intercourse with his SON? THE DRAGON TOO?! WTF!

  • @DusttwoDust I just watched the movie.. awesome :D

  • @SilentPhenomed it's more interesting this way. The original beowulf story is kind of cliche and predictable, the characters have no flaws and it's a basic good vs evil theme. No complexity.

  • @ainezm The characters have no flaws in the original story? No no no no no no no, you definately didn't read it properly. Beowulf DEFINATELY has a flaw. One main one. However, Beowulf's seemingly flawless nature is....intentional.

    Hollywood advocates sex and generic stories like the movie Beowulf. The book Beowulf WAS predictable, yes...we knew Beowulf was going to be king, he was going to beat all of the villains...as a matter of fact, the introduction summarizes the whole thing.

  • grendell is a monster and The son of beowulf with angelina jolie dragoon

  • Comment removed

  • Horribly inaccurate.

  • Why did he just jump? What a shitty king

  • yall should all type in beowulf slayer of grendal in the search for the best remake aka better than the original

  • Whoops not "moved" I meant "morphed" lol brain fart.

  • Grendel has no videos or balls.

  • Anyone else get the butterflies when he rips that chainmail? I do!!

  • @singerg02 Faggot

  • @Cab0cl0 --- Yeah. o_O I'm a faggot for being a chick with eyes. Go fuck yourself, tool.

  • I thought it was pronounced "yay-ats."

  • @mammers11 for Geats......I've heard it pronounced Geets, Geeahts, Yay-ats, and Gehahts

  • @canadiankid77 One man told this story as it was. Those who recanted it mutilated it. English monks wrote it down and mutilated it. Modern scholars translated it to modern English and mutilated it. Modern filmmakers created a movie and mutilated it. Why should we shun anyone for making this?

  • Comment removed

  • No, people, the movie doesn't follow the book completely. That's mainly because the book is vague on several issues.

  • pretty sure the heart of a fucking dragon is bigger than a human hand

  • @letsgoduke15 how is it that he couldn't reach the heart with a sword; but he could reach it after cutting off his arm, and also. That's much more lateral reach, as opposed to vertical reach. That part of the movie was ridiculous to me.

  • @YoungBrave2006 And also, That is just not how I want to see Beowulf portrayed; because this movie leaves a huge plothole open, which is that Grendel's mother is still alive, and unkillable.

  • Comment removed

  • BROCCA BROCCA!!!

  • i loved to book but I can't stand this movie. It's too violent. I mean, yeah, the book was sort of violent but not in as much detail.

  • i cringe everytime beowulf punches grendel's swollen, throbbing ear thingy.

  • Geats Pronounced Yah-ots.

  • I'm much more afraid of the hulking demon Grendel who can grab 30 men and slaughter them with his bare hands!

  • The book was cooler. He actually tore off Grendel's arm without wrapping a chain around him, Beowulf just took it with his bare hands. And then killed his mom. And then killed the dragon with a DAGGER.

  • Thats just badass. first he cuts his arm of and then rips the heart out of a dragon. thumps up if you agree.

  • Wow, I read the book and Grendal was one of my favorite characters because I pictured him such a badass. Really interesting how my image of him is completely different from this angry flailing mentally challenged deformity that's in this movie. I am disappoint.

  • Watched it 'till he dropped his pants infront of the woman - Player stopped buffering.

  • Comment removed

  • o god how gives a shit all hall beowolf

  • They did an awesome job on that monster, he is so creepy looking I actually hated him

  • who the fuck is monty?

  • @DMdisengage Monty Python LOL

  • @DMdisengage My dad.

  • i dont remember the book saying that grendel was a pussy ass bitch cry baby.

  • @TheExtinctDinosaur the book Grendel kinda makes his seem like one....

  • @Toosimuusi because it is Angelina Jolie. Computer graphics (ain't it grand)?

  • This movie had one of the most disappointing endings I grade it a D

  • @john61100

    Why was the ending a disappointment to you?

  • @Jammed9000 Because Beowulf died and in the 1999 one he did not so they should have made the ending different

  • @john61100

    Well guess what? In the 500 A.D. version he dies so this movie is better.

  • we are GEEKS!! that was funny

  • fucking monty

  • @cha7er 5:23 for the win

  • @Munch7411 Good game!

  • @raysoffire nadine!

  • Comment removed

  • @cha7er who the fuck is monty you fucking web...TELL US

  • 3:50 :3

  • Well...its better than the actual movie.

  • Why Grendels Mother looks like Angelina Jolie ??

  • @ToosiMuusi Because Angelina Jolie is the voice of her

  • @Neo341 Oh... :DD

  • look at the guys arm at 3:27 covering beowulfs private spot

  • i love this

  • Strong movie

  • the person skipped parts of the movie

  • Beowulf killed a troll. I like him just for that. Now...can we all please refrain from flaming each other and enjoy him killing the troll please? Thank you.

  • @TheOriginalThought1 Thank you

  • @TheOriginalThought1 he trololololed XP

  • MONSTAH!

    

  • wow somebody actually did a short film of my life. accept I did angelina jolie alot more often...

  • Beowolf wasn't a viking duh!, He was a saxon in a time before they migrated to the north.

    And lol at you with your dumb american films and series with no proper historical accents.....

  • Love seein' a movie with a naked man too for a change.... :) yummy

  • omg...the computer animation on that first part is so utterly cheap!

  • Lol at the knobhead who said "Vikings with british accents".....Sorry but having american accents in historical films like this is just UTTER BOLLOCKS! we rather have the english accents.

  • @RebelSword Considering the legend of Beowulf too place in Scandinavia not England and people from Geatland did not speak English as their native language the characters speaking with English accents is "UTTER BOLLOCKS!" as you would put it. He wasn't being sarcastic about them not speaking with an American accent but about them not sounding Scandinavian which would have been more accurate to the legend.

  • I have a book with a short story of Beowulf.

    (Minor Spoiler)

    I think in the original story, he didn't get 'seduced' by that stupid female demon (who looked like Angelina Jolie in the movie). I don't really like the change there because it didn't make him a complete hero. He actually took a sword of the giants and cut her head off in the cave. He fought a dragon later but it's not his son.

  • I thought the dragon Beowulf fought was basically a giant poisonous snake. I don't remember reading about it having wings.

  • Came here for a test tomorrow. NEVER MIND... haha

  • I'm so confused..... this doesn't follow the book at all...

  • @BahaTk no it does not. After seeing the movie and LOVING it I went to read the epic poem. Director had serious imagination or was just plain stupid...

  • they're dutch. why don't they have dutch accents.

  • looks like its from the makers of polar express..... looks real

  • @tbrew222 same cgi and director

  • yeah, beowulf just had to undress all the time. He sure was an exhibitionist in this movie. lol

  • what is the name of the song that wakes up grendel?

  • So is the mother the mermaid girl they showed when beowolf was killing the seamonsters? Or was she that dragon ? Im confused

  • @gangstaqueen005  lol i was too ...i still am -_-

  • @gangstaqueen005 the mermaid... the dragon is his son

  • No wonder Angelina Jolie started adopting..

  • This movie sucked, It was all CGI with CGI porn. Just a stupid movie

  • "I've come to kill your MONSTA!" Cockney Beowulf?!

  • This movie killed beowolf! He didn't fight the monster nude, he killed the mother and the dragon was mad because the slave stole his favorate cup END. oh and it wasn't has son. He had no children so he made the only person who stayed with him the new king.

  • This movie killed beowolf! He didn't fight the monster nude, he killed the mother and the dragon was mad because the slave stole his favorate cup END.

  • actully in the real story of beowulf beowulfs is from sweden

  • @MrHappyBoomer It is Saxon I think, but both the Viking and the Saxons came from about the same area (Saxons: Germany Vikings: Sweden). And both settled England

  • too much screaming

  • too dark to see. i award you 0 points.

  • Am I the only one who feels a liiiiittle bad for Grendel?

  • @Sargesgrl12 i feel bad too for the "lil" bastard...i mean he was like a disabled kid :(

  • @gheale I know. :( I mean, just look at how he's clawing at his head because the music's hurting his already sensitive hearing. I would've thrown a fit, too, if I was in that much pain. Then later on he TRIES to run away, and Beowulf smashes his arm in the door until it snaps off. I mean, damn, man.

  • @Sargesgrl12 he deserve it

  • This is god awful quality.

  • book is wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy better.

  • Hollywood sure has a knack to take great pieces of literature and turn it into great pieces of shit

  • Comment removed

  • @itsme200117 Sadly this is true. I honestly don't remember ever reading about how Beowulf banged Grendal's mother(I don't remember Grendal's mother being hot either) in fact I am certain he kills her and than fights a dragon 50 years later to which he dies from the wounds and makes Wiglaf(who is a lot younger and comes in the end) king. In the film, he fights a dragon that is supposedly his son, which I find kinda weird. Of course the film did get some of the story right so I guess that counts.

  • @itsme200117 no, not all of them are like that.

  • that guy who is screaming at 3:01 doesnt have have medications in place.. or should i say that "lift has not reached all the way up"

  • isn't that kinda stupid and expsenive to do movie with computer?

  • i saw beowulf's butt

  • i did some looking and it turns out Beowulf is swedish (he lived in sweden before it became a real country) but this happens in Denmark. But im not sure so dont get pissed off if im wrong. I would be happy if someone gave me some info about this.

  • @MrBunnyfucker You're right. I'm doing the book in class now,

  • @MrBunnyfucker The Geats lived in the southern part that we not call Sweden. and Yes the actual battle with Grendel and his mother and dragon take pace in denmark.
