Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film

Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

Derrick Gibbons An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

Mathilde the Guild Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

Neil Welch Some of the scenery is nice. There are some scenes with lots of extras which look as if they've come from another film. There is a generic sword and sorcery plot. The great Sarah Douglas (Ursa in the Superman movies) is in it. Larry Drake plays another in a series of hammy villains. There is a bloke in it called LaPaglia who looks a bit like Anthony LaPaglia but who isn't Anthony LaPaglia (I'm guessing it's his brother or son or something). Amber Benson, who was something or other in Buffy, and who seems to appeal to some people, is in it.And the Gryphon is the worst bit of CGI I've ever seen - and, believe me, I have seen some bad CGI. It doesn't look even vaguely real, and it doesn't look even slightly integrated into the background plates.Vast numbers of people whose names end in -escu were involved in this film.

Petros Rodakinias The fact that so many fantasy movies turn out to be unforgivably bad, is something that surprises me every time. It is beyond me how anyone can turn fantasy into total boredom, but it is obvious that there are many people that can do just that. Of course, Gryphon is no exception and it probably is one of the worst fantasy films ever made. Why is it so bad? Let's see: 1. the story is boring and unimaginative. 2. tons of clichés that don't even make sense 3. mediocre - and often bad - acting 4. lousy CGI effects - it reminded me old movies like Jason and the Argonauts, except when they made those movies they had an excuse 5. uninteresting direction 6. the main monster is a ...gryphon? To be honest this should have tipped me off from the start 7. the people that made this film don't know the first thing about fantasy 8. I could go on but what's the point?So, was there anything good about this film? Well, yes. It ended. All in all, a total waste of my time. Watch it at your own risk. You have been warned. 2/10 for this one.

hooglander Well, it has been a while ago, since i've seen a movie put together so awful. This is beyond any way to produce a movie. I don't like to bash movies, but this is a sad happening.For instance, the Gryphon flies with its wing through buildings. People fall dead before even being touched. I guess the budget has been around the $1000,- to produce this movie.Its hard to continue looking, but the very first 10 minutes are funny. When seeing the Gryphon enter the screen, i hoped it was only for the intro. But nothing was more real. The surrealistic Gryphon remained as "less-realistic" as in the openings shot of the movie.Concluding : This is a waste of time and money.

Kenny-36 I have mixed emotions about Gryphon. I thought the idea was really good. The special effects of the Gryphon were terrible as much as I like Jonathan LaPaglia, he just read his lines as if he was still on The District where a lot of the other actors at least tried to give it a medieval accent.All in all it was an exciting movie, if not anything that would get an award and not the worst turkey I've ever seen, and I've seen some real good turkeys. I think the main thing if you haven't seen this film. It's what the viewer would like to see and how the viewer would like it. It's not for everyone, but as the old saying goes. One man's trash is another's treasure. I'm not going to throw it in the trash, but probably won't be taking it out of storage for quite a while.
