Impersonal.......................I felt trapped in a video game

Rating: 2/10 (7 December 2007)

I really enjoyed this interpretation of Beowulf. The plot, story line, and flow were great. I probably would have given the movie an 8 or so if they would have used humans. Although we've advanced amazingly in technology and "digital enhancement" the characters movements were still robotic and unnatural in my opinion. I didn't really pay that much attention to the trailers on this movie and was shocked that it was ENTIRELY digitally generated with voice-overs. If you're going to pay the actors to do that, why not let them act? Personally, I thought the computer generated version of Robin Wright Penn as Wealthow was creepy looking and did her a great injustice for she is much prettier than the hollow-eyed computer version. Don't even get me started on what I thought of their version of the troll.... Overall, I was extremely let down with the movie because it was all computer generated. It could have been a great hit if they would have used digital "enhancement" and not entrapment.
