Product: Beowulf (1999)
Rating: 3.0
Great expectations, bad experience
When I got this movie for Christmas I thought: "I'm really looking forward to watch this movie!". I exepected too much.The first part of the movie was good enough, especially the music. But I was soon enough annoyed by the unrealistic technology. I thought this was supposed to be a medieval movie and as far as I know they didn't have autoreloadable crossbows, speakers and microphones, laserscopes, elevators and a man in a brown coat (of the modern type) wearing glasses!! Now, don't mistake me, I have nothing against black people, but I wonder what two black men was doing in an European mediaval world?The good things about the movie are some sceenes which can be quite exiting and the one who playes Beowulf is quite good.If you want good fantasy/medieval movies I recommend the Thierteenth Warrior, Merlin, Lord of the Rings or Dragonheart.
