'director's cut' better than theatrical version.

i wrote about the theatrical versio i had seen in the cinema when released, i was npt totally impressed overall, as so many obviously
disagreed i bought the 'director's cut '
i haven't entirly changed my mind with regards to the points i previously raised :- the computer imagery.
with the high-tec advances that have been made in this field in recent years, i do believe the imagery could have been better,
i point to films like 'pirates of the caribbean' in which the computer imagery was also used :- i.e ' davy jones' he and others had expression movement, whereas in 'beowulf' the character's were
expression-less in the main.
however this version is a 'step-up' from the theatrical offering.
the closing battle with the 'dragon' was brilliant.
i reccomend you choose the 'director's' cut.
Good, yet disappointing

Where the graphics and story are good, the overall product lacks any depth. It all looks rather comic with Grendel, some half man half demon and Beowulf, the naked fighter!!! Overall it was impressive but never lived up to the fuss!!
Worth seeing it just to see Grendels Mother.
