Dragon Knight

This movie's a mix of good and horrible acting, directing and editing. Hard to stay interested tho it might be a good story because there doesn't seem to be any new ideas... kind of a copy of other dragon-sword fight movies but this is an action adventure movie, so imo the action should be much better and the adventure should be something different from what's been done already.

There's 3 basic comparative tiers for medieval fantasy.. You have your Lord of the Rings/Game of thrones at the top, the Arrowstorm Entertainment products as the solid middle (Mythica, The Outpost), and then you have essentially LARP on film. This one falls a ways below Mythica, but it's better than some of the LARPs that look like a weekend project. I'll give it a generous 3 for effort, and for some small bits and pieces of decentness. But to be fair, even some of the low budget/campy D&D movies are much better than this.

This film is a mix of decent but not incredible acting... decent but not incredible cinematography, decent but not incredible vfx and a decent but not incredible story.

It's not as bad as most low budget fantasy movies, and it's clear that some love and effort has gone into this. This is why I would "Dragon Knight" a five out of 10? Would I watch more fantasy films from Lawrie Brewster?

I would give that a carefully considered yes.

The final battle scene was especially impressive given the modest budget, with hundreds of warriors and a fairly convincing 3d dragon.

For fans of Fantasy B-Movies, this is a solid 6 out of 10, for regular folks this is a 5. I'd ignore some of these childish edge lord reviews, and I'd challenge anyone to recommend any low budget fantasy movies made in the last 10 years that are comparable to this except for the Mythica series.

I'd recommend this for fans of independent film, Mythica... and perhaps even the old Dragonheart movies.

The plot is not bad, screenwriting average and very contrived a bit like a pantomime.

Ryan Livingstone comes over as if he swallowed Brian Blessed and then shouted at everyone and everything.. Not one good actor in this film which makes it funny you wonder which idiots given them money to finance such drivel.

Just pointless and dull. Bad acting, generic as hell, poorly written. I could forgive the low budget if it wasn't so bland. Boring bloodless sword fights. Every bad guy wears a mask so they could use the same 3 "stuntmen" for each fight. No passion. Didn't care about any of the characters. The end battle was larger, but by that point (long before that point actually) I didn't care. Yep, it had a dragon.

It was shot in a nice wide 2.35:1 aspect ratio, but barely had the content of a 4:3 90s Hercules TV rip-off to fill it. The score was fine.

I feel bad making fun of this movie because it was obvious that the people who made it were sincere and at least trying. But it just wasn't good. They should have made a fun Deathstalker rip-off or a simple kid's flick. Instead, it just seems like a resume placeholder made because "reasons".
