Dragons of Camelot

Well, maybe I had higher hopes for this one than I should have had. I mean the film isn't completely awful but it's not good. I'd say this is a film to watch ONLY IF there is zero else to watch or do.

This story takes place right when King Arthur dies, Morgana takes over Camelot, Lancelot was banished and both Merlin & Guenevere are imprisoned - the rest of the knights must save Guenevere, Merlin and Camelot. It's new take on the old tale.

I will give them an "E" for Effort, they took the film seriously and did the best they were able to do on a small budget. I normally love quite a few of the "B" films - but this one gets a bit boring (that is my reason for not rating it higher).

4/10

Nonsensical film editing, they've put together frames that don't work together at all jump from wide angles to close shots, from static to handheld. If you don't watch it as a movie, but just to be amazed at on how bad it is, then it's fun . Acting awful too. And villager's'clothes and streets and hairstyles are way too clean and new, they look like made of felt.

Its just so bad. Feel sorry for the actors. Got nothing else to say but haven't met the minimom characters. So repeat: nonsensical film editing, they've put together frames that don't work together at all, jump from wide angles to close shots, from static to handheld.

Hard to believe its the same director as Commando and Firestarter. I knew it would be pretty bad, but could not get through it!

Being a big sword and fantasy fan, as well as being a fan of anything to do with King Arthur or Dragons I had to give this a look. It's not great, the budget must have been fairly small, the story is pretty formulaic, and it's pretty clear where things are going, and the characters thinly drawn, though the actors seemed to be doing the best with what they had. The battle scenes are basic, though I thought the final battle was quite lively. There were some nice looking castles showcased and I thought the Dragon CGI was pretty successful, though it's a shame they didn't have the budget to give them more to do. So kind of cheesy, but if you're a fantasy fan, it's okay way to pass 80 minutes if you don't expect too much.

It's rather shocking how pedestrian everything here is, considering they had an established Hollywood blockbuster director.
