I can't wait to watch it. I love the Beowulf story...but then again, I'm a literature student.

Great story line...Great digital effects.!
Good attempt by its creators at generating excellent virtual characters
that can hold our attention long enough to get into the story of the movie..
But is unfortunate its characters are just that... sophisticated digital animations.
Altho I enjoy the movie for the most part..
I look forward to the day technology captures the actors body
suddleties and facial nuances the only a human actor can bring to a motion picture production..

Did they give the sub plot of Queen Wealhtheow promoting her sons any great attention? How was the attention to detail as per the written story? I'm curious...as it will be a while after the baby comes Monday before I can get out and see anything.

nope.. they didnt take it quite there Uncommon, and I purchased the graphic novel for the gurls so i could read it to them. It was quite different than the animated version

Sigh. I'm going to have to do as Coleridge said, then, when I see the movie, and "suspend my disbelief."
