Beowulf - Play:Digital Video Review (1 stars out of 5)

"I! AM! BEOWULF!" Too bad he's not actually any good, too.

Hwaet! (That’s the first word from Beowulf, for those of you that didn’t study old English).

The game of the movie of the poem. That’s a lot of dilution. But the subject material is so damn cool with its heroic action and mythological baddies that I had been hoping it wouldn’t matter.

That was possibly a little naive. Come, take a seat by the fire, and listen as I tell you the story of Beowulf… The Game. Unlike its titular protagonist, it lacks balls.
