Dragonquest

So let's movie on and point out the positives of this finely crafted piece of horribleness.

1- Mark Singer does his best to channel the pirate Long John Silver as was played in the movie with Robert Newton, except that Mark's character is not a pirate, so that's pretty nifty.

2- Daniel Bonjour shifts from an American to a British accent and back again in every sing sentence he speaks.

3- The props appear to be the best stuff one might buy off the shelf at somewhere like Hot Topic. The jewelry... just wow.

4- Russel Reynolds looks like Spock!

5- They didn't waste money on expensive 3D graphics, and this is a movie that is better left as cheap as possible.

6- All the outfits look really clean and new, almost as if they had never been worn before, ever. It's a very clean world in this movie.

So what is bad about this movie? Nothing. This has everything you could possibly hope for. Film, this is.

I'm giving it a 2 out of 10 all because they cast Marc Singer one of my favorite Genre Actors he was a hottie back in the day and made some great sci-fi fantasy films like V, and Beastmaster. Beyond that this movie is awful and I can watch a lot of SyFy originals even some of the really bad ones can be fun to pass a late night when nothing is on mindless plots and bad special visual FX don't bother me as much as extremely terrible dialog and lackluster directing and this movie has both plus not so great CGI. Someone else who reviewed said he thought Uwe Boli directed this, I dare say Uwe might have done better....did I really just say that. I cannot believe this is on Blu-Ray don't even buy it in the discount bin...yikes.

Hilarious. I laughed through most of the first half. Things improved after that, once I changed the channel...

It's a little like Hotshots meets Lord of the Rings. You have the makings of an epic fantasy film, with what felt like the world's worst scripting, but pulled off in such a bad manner, it may as well have been branded a spoof.

The bad points include: The script, the special effects (check out the fight scenes!), the acting (for the most part), the choreography, the directing, several of the outfits... the list goes on.

The good points include: Erm... hmm.... Well it was a bit funny anyway.

DRAGONQUEST Theasylum.cc

"Remember Ralph Bakshi's WIZARDS ? Finally someone got near Anne McCaffrey's Dragon series of books …"

The character or pedigree of Dragonquest may be suspect,But this is a fun ride on a flame-engorged dragon or one of ice !

The cast is pretty terrific, Marc Singer ( Who the script was probably written for as writers were kids back when 'Beastmaster' was the 'shite),Is great as a character wizard and reminded me of 'Vaughn Bode' imp from CHEECH WIZARD.

Brian Thompson,As the evil wizard and lord over Flaming Dragon( Don't Go There !) Is truly menacing and my wife thought very 'Darth Sidious aka Palpatine'from Star Wars films.

Jason Connery, Was hardly on screen and seemed not committed to his role of down-trodden king.

The Dragon CGI is impressive and very character-driven, Obviously a plus to goings of of the traveling trio.

Star Wars? or Star Trek? This is my first review on IMDb. So I will just leave it with the question. It also requires that the review should be a minimum of ten lines. So what else can I say, Marc Singer, still a interesting actor. Brian Thompson, is just really fun to watch. The story, As I asked in my question,seems to borrow from more than Star Wars, or Star Trek. I think casting Brian Thompson in any film would probably conjure up visions of both of those films. Having to write ten lines for my first ever review on this site seem a bit much for this film. If you like the genre, then this is at least a must watch for anyone who likes to write reviews. Other wise, really, do not waste your time. Use your time to watch and review another film. Is this ten lines yet?. paf3150
