the movie Beowulf is very loosely based on the epic,it was a story made with the characters and some of the events from the epic,but its from a very different perspective,the message is very well presented,as well as I believe the acting,Ray Winstone made Beowulf macho,heroic,but in the same time weak,dissatisfied and unhappy.The essence of the two works is different.As far as the CGI,I believe it is a fitting way to tell such a story.

@mastermultitasker i agree wholly

I like being a fish... :<

xD j/k j/k

In all honesty, I didn't like Avatar either. Sure, the visual effects were something astounding, but the story was the typical 'romeo and juliet' plot.

However, I do believe that this film Beowulf had a distinct difference about it. I don't love it because its CGI (which does create some awkward moments), but I love the plot. Story is a big thing for me, as I am a writer myself, but personally, I love the change. This film seems more human.

Okay, so according to your above statement, Tim Burton sucks.

He took the story of Alice in Wonderland and put a story behind all the events, linking them together. Now, the new film has a storyline that is very different to the previous source. It may be cheesy, but people like it when the characters shout. 'THIS IS SPARTAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!' xD

Anywayz, we shouldn't be arguing. Basically, I liked the film, you didn't. End of story. Let us agree to disagree. Deal?

@goreur10 Oh...

[goreur10]

@GhostPlanetFilms not at all!! this song is played a lot of time during the film :)

Funny. The track title is "I Am Beowulf," but this music doesn't play there.

It plays as Grendel lays dying, and his mother comforts him.

@mastermultitasker I agree with you on this as well. I love both the epic as well as the movie adaption. It has also been told there are countless adaptions of Beowulf and none are really the same, and the movie adaption is one of them. I pretty much believe Beowulf is a demigod...but who knows? You do have a point though. The movie gave Beowulf humanity by creating struggles that he faced as well as coruption. In the movie as well as the poem though, he's still a hero and dies a hero.

@PrisonCipher beowulf was a good movie, yes it didnt have anything to do with the original but neither did TDK

@TheBeowulf2007 Beowulf was a good movie. Avatar was a good movie, which was a lot like Pocahontas.

The reason why these were good movies, was because they were entertaining. The took the original story, made it as similar as they could, and took some artistic liberties with the storylines. Apart from that, they were both solid movies with great actors and emotional characters. The music in both is fantastic, and the effect the film creates is astounding. So please, just don't argue.

@ShdwSephiroth not exactly my point but nice job cherry picking.
