Enjoyable movie.

Rating: 6/10 (6 January 2008)

Having not read the story of Beowulf the only reference I had was the earlier film Beowulf & Grendle. Both films roughly stay true to one another until Grendle is no more then the stories seems to be quite different.
I've since read the story of Beowulf and Grendle and find that this adaptation to be less faithful than its predecessor. Some things that differ from the story I later read seem to have been altered for no reason and would have spoilt the film for me had I had a better knowledge of the story.
Despite this I found it enjoyable. And the animation was nicely done.
