Beowulf V. 13th Warrior :: compare contrast poem movie film

After reading the epic poem Beowulf and watching the movie The 13th Warrior, I find that the differences greatly outnumber the similarities. However, the foot of good versus evil reflects the values of the Anglo-Saxon people in two the poem and the movie. Numerous differences exist in the poem and the movie including the characters, the b in ally(a) battles, and the deaths of the heroes. Many differences occur in the poem and movie. The difference in the heroes names becomes obvious. In the poem the heroes name is Beowulf. In the movie, Boulvine is the heros name. other difference occurs in the monsters. In the poem the head monsters name is Grendle. In the movie though, the monster is called the leader of the Ven. Also, in the poem, Grendle is just one person. In the movies the Ven consist of a group of humans that act like animals. other difference in the poem and movie is the bloody battles. In the poem, Beowulf has metaphysical powers when he is at battle. In the movie, B oulvine battles with human strengths and power. In the poem Beowulf defends all of his battles alone. In the movie Boulvine battles with several men. One of the famous warriors is the 13th warrior, compete by Antonio Banderes. He helps Boulvine fight the Ven. In the poem Beowulf does not fight his terzetto battle until 50 years later. In the movie Boulvine fights his third battle immediately after the second. The last difference that occurs is the difference in the deaths of the heroes. In the poem Beowulf dies form a slash to the throat from a dragon. In the movie Boulvine dies from poison. Beowulf dies as an old man in the poem. In the movie though, he dies as a young man. In the poem, Beowulf kills grindle and then Grindles mother.
