Beowulf actor cant swing a sword... ?


Every time he attacks and/or counters there is a visible cut cause he cant do it right for sh*t (i guess). That is what made me hate it. The story has potential but the fight after ~9min was VERY terrible to watch. And later on why the *beep* do they do such a bad job with the fighting (CUT OBVIOUS STITCH TOGETHER). >_<

Beowulf is a super warrior in the tale. I found it amusing how out of breath he was after beating up 3 or 4 guys in the first tiny fight.

Kieran Bew has actually won fencing competitions though. He was awesome in Da Vinci's Demons. In cases like this, I tend to think it's more a problem with editing or choreography than the actor.

Kieren Bew won the under-16 and under-17 British Epee titles, competed throughout Europe, and placed 21st at the Cadet World Championships in 1996. He currently competes domestically for Haverstock fencing club. So I don't think it is his fencing ability that is the problem.

Maybe the actor needs to wave a snooker cue. Beowulf got beaten in the ratings last night by BBC2 which showed the snooker!

It's that man again!!

The fighting choreography and editing is really terrible in this show.
