Still, I figured it wouldn't quite be like the poem, but still wanna see it

I didn't see the movie, but I laughed when in the trailer Beowolf said, "I am Beowolf," because it felt like the, "This is Sparta," line from 300.
As for the interpretation, I rather liked it. They added some interesting themes and expanded on others. Is it the original saga? Nah, not really. I found it utterly enjoyable, though. It seemed to be written from the perspective of, "this is what really happened and then the story changed as it was told and retold."
Actually I think Grendel was pretty close to how he was described in the saga.
