Dragon Knight

This movie looks like it was filmed on a cellphone. The acting and fight scenes are just horrible. The story is bland and uninspired. I was not expecting Lord of the Rings or anything, but even for an indie it left a lot to be desired.

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.

The first 60 seconds of the movie intro looked okay... then the actors began talking and acting and it was all rather comical. These are some of the worst actors to ever grace the screen. To sum up, the story was pathetic, the action was of a high-school play quality and the production was so cheap it was akin to a Monty Python comedy skit. Do not watch this garbage unless you hate yourself and feel like more self loathing for 90 minutes.

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".

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.
