The Robert Zemeckis film, based on one of the oldest stories in English literature. Screenplay, I noticed, credited Neil Gaiman of Sandman fame.
I found the whole motion-capture computer animation thing to be a bit disconcerting. Like it wasn't real, even the mundane parts with no special effects.
The dragon was good, I have to admit...and Angelina Jolie was very good as Grendel's mother. But overall not much better than the somewhat more low-budget "Beowulf and Grendel".
