Beowulf? Hitman?

Why isn't SAJN posting anticipation/review threads about these movies? Personally I'd like to see both, but havn't yet, namely because this is the worst week ever to release a movie. And Hitman's not out until tomorrow.

I've got a bad feeling about Hitman but Beowulf interests me. I'll probably rent both.

Beowulf was pretty good, the 3D was nice.

Beowulf was a decent movie. It is worth going to see.

I saw it. It's really awesome. Many people cried, and I couldn't blame them. Though, hopefully that doesn't put you off from seeing a movie.
My blawgh.

Beowulf looks alright, but I find there's something about films done in this manner (like Sky Captain) that I find odd. The eyes never look right, and thats where all the connection with the characters come from for me.

That said, I've not seen it yet, they might have come in leaps and bounds since then!

Beowulf I heard is pretty good, decent score by critics, but Hitman.....it has like a 9% on Rotten Tomato. Yes I'm disappointed that Hitman did that bad too.

Every time I watch the trailers for Beowulf I see a horrible looking movie, because all the CG falls into the uncanny valley. It's good, but it doesn't quite cut it for realism.

The hotel scene from Hitman was posted online somewhere, and they made sure to have someone playing the game (Blood Money, I think) in there as well.

Hitman failing makes me angry.
Although i saw this coming when i saw the retarded commerical with ****ing pop music and stupid "A sinner becomes a saint" tagline.

Both Hitman and Beowulf seem pretty dumb.

Stay for the songs and visuals, but the story is more cliché ridden than any movie I've seen.

Saw Hitman tonight, I thought it was excellent for what it was supposed to be. It's even got some humor.

Everyone at my theater has warned me not to see Beowulf.

I saw hitman.

Better than I thought. Still kinda lame, but some of the action was neat.

LUST! AND POWER!

That was quite possibly the best thing I've seen all week. :awesome:

I saw and LOVED both, the only thing w/ B. was that the story wasent indepth enough, needed more plot, the only thing with H.Man was it was too much of a love story, too much of that girl beeing a hoe, wtf? i mean, what did that have to do w/ the game, ive never played any of them, but i assume that never happens, the only movie that was cool and dident have a love story and thats why it was awesome was.... ummm.....Broke Back Mounton, ha

I saw Beowulf. It was alright...

I'm going to frame-by-frame the Grendel fight when it comes out on DVD. There has to be a penis in there somewhere.

There were definitely some moments of pure badassery in Beowulf. Very entertaining movie. :D

And my town doesn't have it. Arrrrg. We've got nothing but crappy movies and Beowulf. And none of my friends want to see Beowulf.

I want freaking Hitman and No Country for Old Men.
I had a blog. It sucked.

Just saw Hitman, thought it was bollocks. The action was OK though.

Hitman was decent. It had way too much action, but 47 wasn't as soft as people made him out to be. Not like 47 from the game, though.

I thought Hitman was ok. If your a fan of the games it's worth watching.
