Beowulf (2007)

I shall make you the greatest king that ever lived
When I heard that Ray Winstone was cast as Beowulf and was only 5' 5", I wondered why. Seeing him act, I have no doubts that they knew what they were doing. The benefit of CGI and Motion capture puts a great actor in a mythic role. A perfect fit.
Another perfect fit was Angelina Jolie as Grendel's mother. I mean she was just an animated figure, but Oh what an animated figure. Angelina never looked so beautiful as she did here. There is no doubt why no one could resist her charms.
The movie was just an incredible experience with fine actors (Anthony Hopkins, John Malkovich, and a really believable Crispin Glover, as well as Winstone and Jolie), and an ending battle that will leave you breathless. The beauty of this film is something to behold.
Robert Zemeckis has outdone himself and told a tale that will last until some greater technology comes along. We have a true hero here - it is Beowulf!
