The movie is really interesting, there are funny scenes and because it is an epic movie, we can expect that there are actions made by the character that a normal person cannot do and some of the events happened that do not really happened in reality. Many immoral deeds are viewed in the movie. One of them is when Grendell fought with the Danes men, some actions are too brutal and I can’t take to see it.

I was inspired by the love of the Queen for Beowulf. She never gave up and never thought stop loving him.

Another character that I was touch and got inspired with his attitude is to Wiglaf. He is the best friend of Beowulf. He is a loyal and a very true friend. Wiglaf remained at the side of Beowulf until the end and he never doubted and yet he still believed to Beowulf’s heroism even there are rumors spreading that Beowulf did not really killed the mother of Grendell. For me, that’s the spirit of true friendship. Furthermore, Wiglaf’s kindness was returned by Beowulf by making him as the new king. Beowulf showed braveness and courage in the movie, it is very admirable. He is willing to sacrifice himself for the sake of his kingdom and he really fought Grendell without hesitant and without using any weapon. However, I became sad when he had an affair with the lady and he agreed to have a son with the monster, in exchange for reigning the Danes successfully and for him to be known all over
