Beowulf and Grendel

Based on the epic poem, this movie brings English accents and modern language, with lots of cursing, to the tale. I enjoyed the use of modern idioms mixed in with Norse and archaic sentence structures, as well as the somewhat sympathetic look at Grendel's situation - though that of course did not stop any of the tragedy from occuring.

Well acted, with some good creepy moments and battle scenes.
