Beowulf’s animation was all around impressive, though the characters’ movement reminded me a lot of Shrek. I appreciate the fact that this movie gives a pseudo-education in ancient literature (never had to read the book as a child)

Has anyone heard of freek.com having some contest to give away a free screening of Beowulf and drinks?

Look at the character’s hands, and the movements of their arms: that’s always been a problem for CG movies, IMO.

Nobody keeps his hands perfectly rigid while he walks or talks, while here of course (especially for secondary characters, on the background) this happens.

You might say I’m a maniac of the details… well, if they spend money and time on things like face hairs, or show off by constantly getting the main character naked and sweating (yeah, really, no reason for this apart from showing you how great is that skin texture/bump :P), they could have spent more on this, too.

There are great shots impossible to get with a real camera, but there are also some almost-totally-inexpressive characters (the woman attacked by Grendel, whose voice sounded like “AAAAAAAAARGH!” while her expression looked more like “aaaaa”).

If I didn’t pay much attention on such defects in Final Fantasy, I am now for this Beowulf, when so much time has passed.

Haven’t seen it yet, in either format, but your enthusiasm is contagious. I may have to break down and go now.

I just saw it in the 35mm format, but still enjoyed it. Great review.
