2.0 out of 5 stars Amazing Dragons, ok actors, bad story. Sep 25 2007
Format:DVD
I watched this movie thinking it would be about dragons destroying cities, eating people and fighting armies. Sure not the greatest plot but fun and has lots of dragon action. But that was not what I got.

Bad things: The plot was awful. Just when you think it was going to get good [huge dragon comes out of the ground] it skips to like 20 years later. When you think you'll see dragons flying around cities and destroying them and instead you get people sitting around in ruins in a chard landscape you'd be disappointed to. And also from that part on you just get like 3 parts with dragons in them. Boring.

Good things: The dragons were cool! They looked very well done and were some of the best movie dragons I've seen. I think that the dragons didn't look to stereotypical or to cartoon-like. Like most others. Also the acting was ok.

All in all pretty bad movie. Just see it for the dragons. I would have given this movie one star but the special effects were great so it gets two.

5.0 out of 5 stars Better than most July 17 2004
By A Customer
Format:DVD
Gerard Butler brings a sensitivity to the movie, as well as the courage and bravory of a "Knight".
The movie is for the "thinking man", the bad reviews are not to be considered. This film seems true to life in believe-ability; the dragons could not have been more "real" in looks movements and fire breathing action; in flight they are magnificent!
The men are wonderful with the children, in keeping them strong and unafraid in there horrowing situation. They are as men Should be these days, protective of their women and children.
The costumes are rustic and real.
The movie can be compared to "King Author" in style. A Great action movie, mystical, gritty and Wonder-full.

3.0 out of 5 stars Sigh...What a disappointment Nov 28 2002
Format:DVD
The whole premise for this movie is cool. The old legends were true--there WERE dragons back in Midieval days. They also killed the dinosaurs, brought on the ice age with their ash, and starved themselves into hibernation. Then one day some engineers dug too deep (as engineers always do in these kinds of movies) and the whole world went to pot.

Cool concept, huh? Too bad there wasn't much beyond that. I was ready and rarin' for lots of action, but there was very little, and it was sporadic and not even that great. The plot is okay, not very original, and was pretty entertaining for one viewing. I don't know if I could sit through it again, though.

In short, this is one of those movies that looked really cool but proved to be a let-down. My advice? Watch it once (if you like this kind of movie) before you decide to buy. I know I won't be owning this one.

This is so typical of misleading hype and false advertising. Awesome posters of dragons burning up London, as Apache Copters engage in intense battle with them. Read more
