According to this film review, Beowulf is "visually stunning", although it gets only one star out of five. I'm a sucker for well-made special effects as well as for sagas about barbarians (I come from ancient barbarian stock myself, having only a thin but glossy veneer of civilization over my true nature...), so whatever the critiques might say, I know I'm going to enjoy that film whatever its weaknesses might be. I wonder if it will prove to be a blockbuster...

    • I saw this just the other day and have to admit it blew me away. Although I do wish I had saw it an imax cinema. If i get the chance I still might. And the final part blew me away well worth going to see

    • Beowulf and Of Mice and Men were the books that turned me into a raving bibliophile in 8th grade. I understand they've taken great liberty with the story in this film, but I'll have to see it, and hope that eventually someone makes a more faithful version. It's not like the original book is boring or lacks drama, y'know? But the preview looks amazing.
