Il volo dei draghi

I really enjoyed this film as a child. I had forgotten the name for many years, which was unfortunate. Recently, my mother recalled the title in order to show this film to her class. She had requested it from the library and was surprised that it doesn't exist in a DVD format.

I happened to find it laying about and watched it again. All the childhood memories poured back. It isn't often an adult will sit through a children's' film and enjoy what they see but I did.

I still searched online for a DVD format so I could make a purchase but no dice. I wish it would be put on DVD.

This movie was great. I watched it over and over and over again as a kid, and it basically introduced me to fantasy. The voices are so talented, including the late John Ritter and James Earl Jones. And the story is so creative! A great movie for children and adults alike.

Flight of dragons is perhaps one of the most unique animated pictures produced. Kids will enjoy watching the dragons and creatures of fantasy while the adults will appreciate the deep story and philosophy portrayed in this film. If the story isn't enough for you to watch this, the animation will attract your eyes to the screen. This is a great animated fantasy good for just about everyone. Whether you're a player of role-playing games or just looking for a good film, this is it.

I've seen quite only quite a few fantasy movies and only one involving a dragon. Not one of those movies have the magic that this animated movie has. This isn't just a simple hack and slash adventure that fantasy is too often stereotyped as. This is a deep, mature animated movie, and the characters are well developed. They speak and act naturally, and the knight has one of the better monologues I've ever seen in a movie. There is a deep philosophy hidden in this movie, too. Should Man stay with magic or move on to science? That is the dilemma facing the main character, a scientist who is fighting to save the realm of magic. And there is more than one scene that will touch your heart. This is an excellent animated movie that is mature enough for adults, yet kids of all ages can enjoy it. Rent it or buy it. Just watch it.

This is a great film, and is never on anymore, why? The animation looks generally lovely, a little flat in places, but that is the only criticism I have of this movie. The title song is so hauntingly beautiful, I still have the song in my head and cannot get it out. The rest of the music is wonderful as well. The characters were amazing. Carolinus, Melisande and Oamadon especially. A friend has a villa in Spain, and has the video there. When I go to Spain, I always watch this, as well as my siblings. The voice talents were great, especially John Ritter and James Earl Jones(outstanding as Oamadon), the script is intelligent-Oamadon's big speech in the meeting between the four brothers is genuinely chilling- and the story is enchanting and surprisingly mature. Please bring this movie back, because I was enchanted as a child, and this along with Last Unicorn has so much magic to make it memorable. 9/10. Bethany Cox
