       Currently watching "Beowulf & Grendel" (2005).It bothers me that there is an enormous plot hole in the movie.The king of the Danes and his men kill Grendel's father with arrows, and he then falls over a cliff. Grendel then seeks revenge on the Danes. Beowulf comes to the aid of the Danes. Beowulf kills Grendel with his bare hands, as a troll's skin cannot be pierced by mortal weapons.Wait a minute.... what about those arrows?#movies #films

       The epic poem, upon which the film is loosely based, has no such plot hole. Grendel was just motivated by being a badass, as is the nature of all trolls (actually a eoten).
