The tale that had been told for generations by scops has met the silver screen as an animated film. The movie, although it retains a significant number of themes from the original tale, takes some drastic liberties with character behaviour, interaction, and the driving force behind the story. The depiction of our glory-seeking hero Beowulf remains fairly faithful to his depiction in the poem, although there are a few differences.

Luhrmann cast and presents the characters are captivating and special in some areas, but breakdown in others.
