A disgrace!

Rating: 1/10 (22 December 2008)

Warning: spoilers ahead.
In the poem Beowulf does not fight in the nude. He kills Grendels mother (which by the way did NOT look like Lara Croft). The dragon has nothing to do with the fore-mentioned monsters. Hrothgar does not kill himself. This movie was NOT Beowulf, this was a stinking pile of Hollywood revisionist relativist dung.
Hey Hollywood, when you're done throwing crap at one of the oldest and most important works in Anglo-Saxon literature, let us know. We would like to see a movie that was actually based on the poem. I won't hold my breath though.
1 star because there's no 0-star option.
