The film is based on an Anglo-Saxon poem about a great hero ( Beowulf) who goes to Daneland to help his friend King Hrothgor whose kingdom is being threatened by a killer troll ( Grendel ). But when the truth is known Beowulf realizes he has been drawn into something much more sinister than he had hoped for.
This is beautifully filmed and the stark Icelandic landscape can be breathtaking at times. In fact, the PQ is IMHO of reference quality. And the audio is no slouch either, with very deep LF effects. A very entertaining film for those who like this particular genre.
