Beowulf in Digital 3D

First thought: Why would anyone see this movie not in 3D? The 3D thing is pretty fun.

Second thought: Wow. This blows. What a lousy movie. And of course the gendered, sexual politics of it all is offensive, but the movie's so embarrassingly bad you are at least at parts distracted from that by all the giggling in the theater around you.

Final thought: Yeah, the animation is cool in an improved-Polar Express kind of way. But that system is still really lousy at doing expressive faces (except, for some reason, Angelina Jolie's - guess she just has the kind of face that can overcome the problems of the process).
