Dragonheart: Vengeance

I really loved the first film. It was different, fun, and a good story. After Dragonheart there was one sequel, which was basically terrible... and multiple prequels that were equally (if not moreso) terrible. CGI lacked, storyline felt repeated, and I'd seen better acting at high school musicals.

Then came Vengeance. Will it get oscars? No. Was the CGI worthy of a big screen? Not quiet, BUT, out of the prequels, the dragon looked loads better then the prior films and believable. It had a more original storyline, as they pulled further back from the whole heart share thing (though still relevant) being the driving plot, which was beaten down our throats in the other films.

Joseph (Darius) and Hannah (Sivith) were fun characters and the acting was decent enough to not let it get in the way. I thought Sivith had the most "Draco like" persona... and it felt nostalgic to the original.

The plot was kinda predictable, but straight to DVD/Stream is kinda expected.

It has a happy fluff ending. Don't expect a blockbuster, but if you take it for just the fun film it is, it's a good watch.

Fans. it's atlteast as good as II if not better, better cgi, and actually better than the eragon movie, not the books obvsly

I have to wonder what some neg-rating reviewers here are thinking, or what they were expecting. The acting in this movie is fine. The directing is good, as is the CGI. It has a story, a moral, teaches a good lesson. What, not enough sex, violence and foul language to suit some people? Those slamming this as a terrible movie really need to move on to something more to their taste.

This is one of the better of the DragonHeart movies. I am as quick to call a bad flick as anything, but this is simply an enjoyable film. The characters are well-developed, the bad guys properly bad, the dragon concept rather interesting. The negative reviews are no more than jaded rants. This is a decent older-children family film well worth watching.

Good family movie (for those with older kids) Slapstick type violence but also heavy at times. Lighthearted humour all the way through but also contains mild adult humour. A decent film. I sat through it and I get easily distracted with my phone, I left my phone alone so I must have enjoyed it. No swearing. No sexuality. Overall a decent watchable movie.

If you're like me, you likely saw this film and thought, "hey! Is this film related to the Dennis Quaid one from 1996??" YES, it's that franchise.

Your second question is likely going to be, "is this a low budget, SYFY channel mess...?" NO, it's not. It is actually a really decent little film.

I have no idea why they chose to revive this franchise, but it's not bad at all. If you like mid-evil times, and enjoy fantasy and/or dragons? Then you'll like this!!

It's family friendly as well for the most part! A please by surprise :)
