Synopsis

Set against the coming of Christianity, this is the story of the last hero: in 507, a monstrous troll wreaks havoc in the mead hall of Danish King Hrothgar (Sir Anthony Hopkins). He offers rewards for the death of Grendel (Crispin Glover), so Beowulf (Ray Winstone), a great and boastful Geat warrior, arrives with his thanes.

Beowulf sets aside his armor and awaits the monster. A fierce battle ensues that leads to Beowulf's entering the watery lair of Grendel's Mother (Angelina Jolie), where a devil's bargain awaits. Beowulf returns to Herot, the mead hall, and becomes King.

Jump ahead many years, and the sins of the father are visited upon Beowulf and his kingdom. The hero must face his weakness and be heroic once again. Is the age of demons over?

While the soundtrack of Beowulf is powerful and evocative, at times it can feel a bit overwhelming and melodramatic. Some moments in the music may border on being too bombastic, potentially distracting from the emotional nuances of the scenes. Overall, however, the music effectively enhances the overall cinematic experience of the film.
