Dragon Age: Redemption

Felicia Day playing Felicia Day again to a backdrop that she never deserved to go near. Honestly why is this abomination even on IMDB? I know they inserted her character into a DLC for DA:2 but she was having a moment at the time for some reason and EA do like to cash in, we all know that. This though? It should be disavowed as official media, it's a bad fanfic by a prototype egirl and nothing more.

I saw this as someone who loves Dragon Age, but I was also dubious. Seeing it finally, I thought it wasn't terrible, but it wasn't very good either. I did like the music, which had a sense of adventure, the costume and set design while not amazing did look decent, likewise with the photography, Nyree was an interesting and fun character and Marcia Battise gives a lot of enthusiasm here. However, the story didn't always engage me. The idea was great, but the basic structure seemed thin and sometimes even padded out, then there are parts felt rushed and underdeveloped in an effort to introduce many characters. The special effects are rather tacky, granted I have seen much worse, but the blood especially looks very artificial. The dialogue is corny and stilted, and apart from Nyree the characters either got on my nerves(Tallis) or took far too long to introduce. The acting is nothing great either, Adam Rayner is wooden and while Felicia Day is good in The Guild she seems rather detached here. All in all, interesting and not awful, but fell short in terms of writing and story. 5/10 Bethany Cox

Okay is this a grand epic? No..

But is it fun to watch ? Yes.

Almost zero real production value and effects.. story is derivided dialog is stiff..

But you know somehow you can over look that because you understand what you are watching..

Yes it is fun.. and really everyone done the best with what they had..

A fantasy based on the video game, Dragon Age, or should I say loosely so. It is full of cliches and the acting is marginal even at its best. The script is so so and dialogue comes off as feeling forced. Action sequences are lacking in action.

The elven ears look like cheap plastic and the weapons look like over sized foam LARP weapons. The storyline is ok, but itis fairly generic.

The beginning sequences appeared to be CGI, and was the best part of the movie and seemed more realistic than any of the live action parts.

It is passable as watchable, barely so.. I certainly have watched worse.

Hollywood you are officially on notice. If they can do this with almost no money your 100's of millions is pathetic, wasted and you should be ashamed. This is a group of people, or at least one person, Kathryn Felicia Day, that are not going to submit to the Hollywood machine. Dragon Age attempts to tell the story that would require many novels to communicate. This is the pit fall of almost all Fantasy/Adventure story lines that are conveyed to TV or movies is they are trying to communicate an entire world in a relatively short movie. Dragon Age is actually very successful in translating several novels on story into a very short amount of film.
