Watch Beowulf For Free

Excellent, Without a doubt!!

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

I love this movie! The scene where Beowulf battles the Sea Serpents is STILL (10 years later) the best action sequence ever committed to film. BEEOOOOOWULF!!!! Along with sweet action, frame composition, artistry, and lovingly calculated swinging CG breasts, the movie has some great themes and lines. Like, "The Age of Hero's is dead. The Christ God has killed them all and left man kind with nothing but weeping martyrs, fear, and shame." Sure, CG Malkovich is pretty creepy and does not feel real, but I blame this largely on casting someone whom we know how they should feel. Most of the characters are very well done, especially for being way ahead of it's time.Zemeckis is the bomb, and this is him at his most fun...

Ah "Beowulf" great story, An Balls out Anglo-Saxon poem from long ago. Ah Robert Zemeckis and Neil (sandman) Gaiman, two enormously overrated hacks. Hence we have "Beowulf" the cheesy cartoon! I know, some are screaming it's CGI! Big, fat hair deal, it's animated, for the most part badly, I do give this cartoon a 5, largely because it has one kick-ass dragon! But dozy is it dumb.Beowulf, voiced by Ray Winstone but bearing no resemblance to the pudgy actor, is a conceited, boastful lying pig-ape in this cartoon who roams bout with his fellow geeks, oops sorry, Geats, offering to slay monsters and demons in return for women or gold. Yeah, what a hero. His BFF is Hamish, sorry Waflig, or some such dippy name, it's Hamish from "Braveheart" Honest. At the beleaguered hall of Santa Claus, oops again sorry, it's Hrothgar, voiced by Anthony Hopkins, apparently he's started drinking again. King Santa had a young queen who looks like an uncomfortable waxen cross breed between Meryl Streep and Robin Wright if she was fat and wore a bad wig. Anyhoo, Hrothgar made some mistake sand his hall is being bitch-smacked by the monster Grendel who looks rather like a knobby troll.Naturally Beobreath rips Grendel and wins the day. For some reasons no explained by this cartoon he goes to see GRendel's Mom, voiced in a Russian accent by Agnelina Jolie. Ah Good ole Bob Zemeckis, he gives us the cartoon asses of Hopkins and Winstone, but Angie? Nah, gold dipped and phony as hell. Sigh.After Hrothgar drowns in his corn flakes, Beowuss becomes king. Flash forward ma ny years, we don't' know how many, and Beo has a queen and a girl Urusla, who looks like a min-me of the queen. Princess? Daughter, no just some bitch for Beoballs to hammer at night when he gets bored with Robin, er Wealthrow, Uh-huh, again what a great "hero" he is! Well he's sinned big time too and that comes back to bite him in his still tight and curiously hairless rear.Ugh, there are some pluses here, some dynamic action, some rousing songs, but it's all misogynistic and dumb and well it's a freakin cartoon! It's also waay long and simplistic. Even the ending is kinda vague, though most epic poems or sagas if you prefer, were vague in their endings, i. e. GAwain and the Green Knight. Anyhoo, check "Beowulf' the cartoon if you liked "Brave" pretty similar and again the Dragon is awesome!! 15yold boys may rate this much higher.

I'm a senior in high school, and we recently just finished reading the book "Beowulf". After we finished it, our teacher showed us this movie. Now, I had seen the movie once before, back when I was only in elementary school, and as a result I had a preconceived idea of the story of Beowulf. Reading the book, and then watching the movie, I could see that there were a myriad of differences. Some of those include Wulfgar being a very minor character in the books, as opposed to being Beowulf's best buddy, and Welthow hardly appearing at all. One of the much larger changes would be the much heavier involvement of Grendel's mother, however I understand completely as to why the director and producers decided to make these changes. Adapting an ancient epic poem to be exactly the same as the source to a modern day audience would probably see a box office flop. All the changes made sense to me to work for a theatrical film, and I really enjoyed the movie. Granted, there were some flaws in certain parts, but they all remain personal, for example I wasn't the biggest supporter of Grendel's design, but as I said, it's personal. Overall, the movie had plenty of ups, and very little downs, and I thoroughly enjoyed some of the voice acting and nods to the book. Easily recommend to anyone.

The animation is god, but the plot is incomplete and vague. In the whole film i never realized what was all about. Some textures are really awful, for example, the floor. The faces don't much with the rest of the art, in some shots they look like ps2 models, in others they look like real people.I don't like the end of the movie because the real problem, (the curse) is never solved.Being objective, the movie is fun, the soundtrack is really good, the concept of a imperfect hero is refreshing and "new" and i enjoyed the movie despite the imperfections and lack of coherence
