On Beowulf
Finally went to see Beowulf the other night, and the experience was...odd. Usually when I watch a movie, I feel an emotional pull; I either like the movie or I don't. With Beowulf, I felt nothing. I was just neutral the whole time. Oh, I tried to get into the story. Tried HARD. I just couldn't do it. And I can't really say I hated it either. It was the weirdest movie-watching sensation I've ever felt.
As for the animation, I wasn't really impressed. Most of the effort was obviously spent on Beowulf himself, with minor characters looking unimpressive. The motions looked un-natural at times; I thought they could've taken lessons from the Shrek team. Oddly enough, the animation looked best in darker setting. Go figure...
Overall, I can't say I recommend this movie. I love the old Beowulf story, but the movie didn't really do anything for me. Save your money for the amazing amount of games that are out for Christmas.
Maybe I'll start putting up more movie reviews, even some anime-related ones. I don't know (I never do). One review to NOT look for: The Golden Compass. Not going to see that movie for any amount of money.
