Dragon Warriors

For a low budget movie with questionable cgi this is a slow burner that does catch fire.

Where this wins over similar competitors is its awareness of its audience. Its smart humour is based in solid foundations of its watchers references whether it is Star Wars or Lord of the Rings (OK I gave it away), it's a nerd movie. Still with solid actors like Marsters, Johnston as protagonists and even Denton who projects himself well beyond some excellent Orc makeup effects this film is in safe hands. Luke Perry I would not have recognised in a thousand years does OK but is overshadowed by his contemporaries who provide energetic and articulate voices for their roles.

I would admit the guys get all the best lines and the female characters are not as well served in this area. A bit more flesh on their characters bones would have been appreciated. The pacing of the movie however was well done and the low budget cgi effects for the backdrops reminded me of the old Dr Who green screen, which to my mind added to the charm of this movie.

While this film is no "Princess Bride", If you appreciate intelligent movies that don't take themselves too seriously then you might just have found a little gem.

You don't watch this movie for the story. Or the special effects. You watch it because of the stupid humor, tongue in cheek jabs at fantasy tropes.

Go into this movie with the lowest expectations possible and you'll enjoy it.

The really bad green screening, panning and outright over the top acting are part of this spoof charm.

It's apparent they spent their budget on the single Orc character as it was the closest thing to B-grade they get. It felt like some college students got stoned and made the movie in film school. Probably not too far from the mark as I learned after the movie it was a kickstarter with a $216k budget.

I enjoy a stupid level comedy on occasion. Movies like Kung-Pow, Kung Fu Hustle, Shaolin Soccer, and even Your Highness to name a few.

This movie falls short of making the list of my "desire to rewatch it one day" (in its entirety). I however will probably pull up certain scenes just for the laugh.

The story - 2/10 The score - 2/10 The comedy - 5/10 The special effects - 3/10.

Hotties - 8/10

Smoke a bowl, lower your expectations and watch the movie. I promise it's at least better than sitting through a grade school play.

Better than I expected. They made great use of the small budget.

This was a fun little film poking fun at fantasy tropes.

I enjoyed the characters and the dialogue and laughed at lots of the gags.

I've watched lots of low budget movies and wondered how they possibly got the cash. I see this one was funded with a kickstarter, which I think is pretty neat.

I picked this movie up out of curiosity, having never heard of it before. I was surprised by how much I enjoyed it. The story, while simple, was lighthearted and enjoyable. And the characters were likable and fun. Many of the references and sight-gags used had a Mel Brooks quality to them and fit the tone of the movie and never distracted from the movie its self. The CGI, while not blockbuster quality, was decent. The practical effects and make-up were very well done. The only flaw I could personally find with it was the use of Blue screen, which was clearly used because of budgetary reasons, could be a bit distracting at times, but also gave it a somewhat stylized look. I'd recommend Dudes and Dragons to fans of Fantasy and Spoof movies, and players of D&D.
