Summary: Visually stunning
Comment: Quite superb in action and detail,the day when actors are not needed on screen is surely drawing closer judging by Beowolf.It is certainly gorey for a 12 rating,but the film gets better as it moves on.I am judging the film on itself rather than anything else.I do not go for total CGI generally but this was great,well worth buying.

Summary: Very gory for a 12 rating!
Comment: A lot of reviews already cover the impressive computer generated images, high HD quality and likes and dislikes re the voices so I wont go over that again.
What did surprise me was the graphic and copious amount of mutilations and gore in this film, considering it is a 12!
Pretty sure that if this was not computer generated it would have got a 15 or maybe 18 rating.
Considering that the line between CGI and live is getting narrower (and this film takes a big step across that line) I decided not to let my 12 year old watch this, it's not like he's missing a particularly great film!

Summary: Too late for truth?
Comment: One of the most enduring legends of all time and Roger Avary and Neil Gaiman feel that they need to engage in a bizarre re-write. This new sex orientated version has some very weird plot diversions, most notably a more than obvious Oedipal overtone that has no reference to the original. One can only assume that this was instigated in order to make it more 'interesting' for the modern mainstream audience.

In short a ham fisted re-write that has now been odiously attached to the memory of Beowulf.
