Dragonheart - Die Kraft des Feuers

For a movie with low budget, it was pretty decent ! I rated this movie for it's standards. I really wish this saga to continue ! SHOW THEM THE MONEEEEYYYYY !!

This movie was very touching. It was more character driven then your average Dragon Fantasy. You feel for these characters.

A few quibbles: the revisionist Feminism did not make sense. There was a lot of Game of Thrones. Especially the Brother-Sister "close" relationship. Some of the supporting characters were throw away.

On the other hand, for a low budget movie the special effects were pretty good. Patrick Stewart is a worthy successor to Sean Connery.

All in all I enjoyed this movie.

Fun family Bmovie flick that's going to suffer from a few various trends

-the hatred for Dragonheart sequels.

-the current anti-PC culture that starts screeching about their hatred for feminism when a woman shows any sign of strength.

All by all unwarranted negatives, this movie was surprisingly entertaining and well made. If you like medieval stories with dragons that aren't into burning humanity to the ground, it's certainly worth checking it out.

And no, for the love of it, you do NOT need to see Dragonheart 3 to understand what's going on. In fact, if you have seen DH1 then I suggest skipping 2 and 3 entirely and go straight to 4.

This film was a pleasant surprise! I found this one enjoyable. I liked this one much better than the 2nd in the series. I like this one quite a bit.

6.5/10.

Having been playing fantasy roleplaying games since around 1986 and up to 2019, then of course with a movie such as "Dragonheart: Battle for the Heartfire" is just something that has to be watched.

Turns out that this 2017 fantasy adventure movie was actually surprisingly entertaining and good. The movie had a very nice storyline, one that definitely had a very unique fantasy feel to it.

The characters in the movie were nicely detailed and fleshed out, and they had some nice actors and actresses to perform the various roles and characters. One thing though, which might be nitpicking, but the fact that the Norsemen didn't speak Norse was cringeworthy. Sure, for the sake of the audience, English is preferable, but it just takes away so much of the image of them being Norsemen when they speak English.

As for the special effects in "Dragonheart: Battle for the Heartfire", well, let me just say that they had a rather impressive array of special effects. The dragon looks very nice, realistic (as realistic as dragons can be, duh!) and the CGI was working so well in favor of the movie.

"Dragonheart: Battle for the Heartfire" is definitely a nice movie, especially if you enjoy the fantasy genre. It is not a movie that you need to have watched all the previous "Dragonheart" movies to understand, so it functions well as a stand-alone movie, but also as an addition to the "Dragonheart" franchise.
