About this movie

A timeless epic tale of heroism and triumph, the legendary Old English tale of Beowulf is brought to life by Academy Award®-winning director Robert Zemeckis (The Polar Express, Cast Away) with digital rendering and cutting-edge performance capture technology. The Departed's Ray Winstone stars as the Scandinavian hero who faces an indomitable enemy (played by cult cinema sensation Crispin Glover) alongside a stellar cast that includes Academy Award® winners Anthony Hopkins and Angelina Jolie, Golden Globe nominees John Malkovich and Robin Wright Penn and more. With a script by Oscar® winner Roger Avary and graphic novelist Neil Gaiman, one of the world's oldest heroic sagas is reimagined as never before with the world's newest technology.

Originally, the saga of Beowulf is a story of a hero from Scandinavia. This animation is technically impressive, and with great actors. Unfortunately the movie looses a lot under the Hollywood regime. When Beowulf is fighting Grendel, Beowulf insists on fighting him without armour and clothes. Instead of that it becomes a story of how to make a film without showing reproductive organs. That will be Mr. Zemeckis problem.
