This movie was remade in the new CGI green screen technique just recently.But despite that this version is the best of them all, in my opinion.
Gerard Butler, famed for his roles in "300", "Dracula 2000", "The Phantom of the Opera"(where it's really him singing the lead role), "P.S. I love you" , to name just a few of the projects to his credit, brings the character of Beowulf to life.
A poignant message film on so many levels it's worth every penny to add to your personal DVD collection. The scenery is magnificent, the actors very real in their portrayals, it's a superb film that you can watch again and again while seeing new things not only in the film but in the timeless message it contains; no matter how it looks we shall always suffer as people, if we take our prejudices as a right to relate to one another just at face value.
