Pluskylang Great Film overall
Siflutter It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
Murphy Howard I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
Tayyab Torres Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
ma-cortes This silly but entertaining B-grade movie tells about some fire-breathing , meteoric dragons emerge from the space and hurtling toward earth begin setting fire to everything , establishing dominance over world and land in Carpathia ,1410 . After destruction his castle , the king Fastrad ( a tyrannical villain well played by John Rhys Davies ), along with his underling (Tony Amendola) are going to shelter at castle of Wenesbury ruled by a good king ( Hansson ) . They meet a hunter archer named Silas ( Maxwell Caufield ) lead them to the castle . There , the hunter is taken prisoner . One time is freed , Silas team up and band together with the king's daughter ( Angela Boris , a Playboy girl), an Asian fighter named Ling ( W.Park ), a woman warrior ,among others and helped by a large crossbow , confronting the weird dragons monsters . They suddenly find themselves the only people can save the kingdom battling the giant dragons .This is an amazing story that attempts at creating a glimmer fantasy but is compromised by borrowing elements from ¨ Dragonheart , Dragon slayer and Reign of fire ¨, and other latter day movies and belonging to Dragons sub-genre. Film blends adventures, intrigue , battles , exciting action with convincingly computer generator FX , bringing the dragons to the life and is quite entertaining . Work on dragons made by CG sometimes seem authentic, but is also noted its computer realization . The only thing that let it down from this perspective , was that some of the parts in between the dragons fighting were a little dull . It's a moderate success accounting for seeing a direct for video. The picture is produced by Philiph J. Roth, he usually manages his films to write , produce , music and direct and still make them funny , thoughtful and most all highly amusing ,he currently resides in Sofia, Bulgaria and owns a film studio where has been filmed this one . The motion picture is professionally directed by Stephen Furst , he maximize efficiency of movements and shot , he's a habitual secondary actor ( Babylone 5 ) and newcomer as director . It's a bemusing film but is specifically appointed to young people, in spite of a brief nudism scenes. Rating : Passable and entertaining.
Boba_Fett1138 This is one of the most badly written movies I've seen in a long time.The movie is quit ridicules. The movie is about dragons from outer space(!) who are attacking a kingdom during the dark ages. A team gets assembled to defeat the 5 remaining dragons. But like that's not enough already, the movie is also about a conspiracy by the bad king to overthrow to the good king, though both kings seemed like bad ones to me to be honest.The movie is quite laughable. It tries to be spectacular, funny and even epic. It tries so hard that it becomes ultimately laughable, because the movie itself is far from spectacular, funny and especially epic. The production values of the movie are far too low, though the movie certainly does not feature the wost special effects I've ever seen, especially considering that this is a made-for-TV-movie. That perhaps was the only thing that surprised me positively about the movie.Otherwise the movie isn't too good looking. The sets are obvious ruins and the mass scenes are a disgrace. Launching a full scale attack on a kingdom with about 15, under equipped, men is a very laughable thing to watch, especially because throughout the movie the attack is presented as a great and serious threat to the kingdom.The movie is filled with many unlikely characters. The main 'hero' is horrible looking, with an obvious fake wig. The rest of the dragon-slayer team consist out of the formulaic characters you would expect. None of them is really interesting or gets developed well enough in the movie. How did John Rhys-Davies ever got mixed up in this mess? Perhaps he wanted a small Lord of the Rings rehash?The action is presented as if its the most spectacular things ever brought to the screen. The first explosion of the movie really made me crackup. A small wooden shed exploded in extreme slow-motion with a stunt person flying in slow motion away from the explosion. So incredibly over-the-top, I mean a it's a small woodshed! But yet the movie tries to make it look like a large, wooden, gunpowder filled ship is blowing up. The movie features far too many unneeded slow motion action sequences. I hate it when a movie uses bluntly slow motion as a tool to make the simple action look more spectacular, especially when it really isn't.The movie is not just poorly written, it's also very poorly put together. The movie features some plain bad editing and musical score. I've you have a musical score like this one, you're probably better of not having a musical score at all! The movie further more also features some awkward humor. The kind that just isn't funny in a movie, though it all probably looked good and hilarious on paper. The movie also has some of the worst and most annoying sound effects I've heard in a long time. Lowest point of the movie its sound effects; the constant fake put over giggling of a couple of youngster who enter a dragon cave. Incredibly annoying and fake.But no, it's not among the worst movies I've ever seen. The movie sill offers some good clean fun entertainment, even though the execution of it all is far from brilliant. The movie is very predictable and it tries very hard to be better than it really is. It makes the movie unintentionally laughable at times.4/10http://bobafett1138.blogspot.com/
chris-boy1 this movie was , without a doubt, the worst movie i have ever seen. you know that point that the movie is so bad that you have to finish it just so you know how it ends so it doesn't bug you and you are forced to rent it again? well this movie is beyond that point. me and my friend rented it and it was so bad that we stopped it about a half hour from the end. we now keep a list of the worst movies ever and this is easily on top with no contender. i saw the movie a couple of years ago so i don't remember what made it so bad but i do remember that the acting was just plain horrible. the only way for you to comprehend how bad this movie is, is to see it but so help me god please DO NOT RENT OR SEE THIS MOVIE i cannot stress that enough.
Elswet The things which were right included the wonderful performance by John Rhys-Davies, the inclusion of the jester-dressed martial arts dragon slayer, wonderful vistas and views, wonderful (if not excellent) "alien" dragons, and great dialog.The problems with it included the horrible delivery of said great dialog; the casting was extremely uneven which made for low charisma between thecharacters and the timing of the whole production was a bit off. The armor and costuming were too new and stole from the finished product the opportunity to lend some air of authenticity to the era. The crown worn by Wednesbury wasobviously modern designed, manufactured and the jewels were of obviousplastic and appeared to have been molded onto the "paper/foil" crown. It was sickening. The structures and sets suffered the same anachronistic sickness as did the costumes and props.Also, the dragon in the beginning could have received a much better treatment. I know people who do graphics for themselves, for their own home-run website, who do better graphics than the CGI we were presented in the beginning of this flick. When you slow it down and watch it frame by frame, they lack definition and character as they do when just watching it normally. Half way through the movie, however, these dragons take on a whole new dimension and are given the treatment they deserved. This went a long way into redeeming this film, although the chunky direction and badly timed delivery still manages to drag down what (when given proper attention) is a really well written, creative, and "A" movie worthy screenplay/teleplay. Someone should actually do this for the Big screen, using the same script. This could have been SO much more than this crappy little television movie. How sad that they couldn't have acquired better talent to portray this work. It's a real shame to have to repeat the dialog to yourself in your mind to get the inflections and wit behind it. And the voices? Were those dubbed or what? They didn't seem to match up to the moving lips. It was like watching a bad 1970's Kung Fu Theater feature. Of course, that came and went as the movie progressed. The score was actually quite good and many times was the only things carrying the movie through the horrible dry deliveries and really bad acting. Alas! It wasn't enough.But let's work with what we do have. We have "The Lament." John, oh JOHN! What are you DOING? Jackson cast actors who needed a big break or a fresh start, and as soon as LotR is over, THIS is what you go back to?! You're wasting yourself and your talents on crap like this!We have "The Jester-Dressed Far Eastern Dragon Slayer." He chops. He kicks; he gives you true Chinese philosophical wisdoms, and all the while, he never gets a wrinkle in his acetate jester shirt. Not even when wearing his hard leather armor at the dinner table.We have "Lil Miss You Could Have Knocked" who rubs herself over the heated water barrel and hides her already hidden breasts instead of her nether-regions which AREN'T covered. Way to be coy and discreet, girl. 4 Real. I mean, she's leaning into that barrel, giving it a look that definitely says, "I hate these medieval movies! Where is the SPIN cycle on this thing?!"We have "Mr. I've Never Heard of a Hairbrush or a BONE to Brush My Hair" Huntsman who looks as if he is wearing a very bad wig, and if he's not, he should watch out for that family of spiders who have obviously nested in his hair.And we have some good-looking dragon's fire, dragon sequences and after the first few minutes' hesitation, dragons that they weren't afraid to let you see in nice, stunning detail. Kudos to the effects people (those who gave you Python) for the stunning work.Why all this for some Made For TV (which means "Not Fit For The Big Screen") Crap-Fest? Because of what it COULD have been. This screen play and the dialog found therein, is witty and wonderful. It was just very poorly demonstrated by the severe lack of talent in the direction and in the portrayals.It rates a 7.8/10 on the "B" scale from...the Fiend :.
