as much as we can all appreciate the time and effort that goes into film making, this movie could do with a lot of improvements and a story etc to fit the budget. seeing as it is part of a trilogy they would have been better to roll them all into one film and have a bigger budget.
there is far too much talking in this movie. it is too easy to get bored waiting for something to happen. the shots fail to meet even basic film making techniques and i know first year students who have made a better job than this. the dragon does not even look rendered and more represents the early attempts at King Kong (and i mean terrible mechanical stuff about as scary as jaws). the props have all been taken from other movies. the elves look like bad attempts at making black people look like lord of the rings creatures.
i cannot give a correct review as i skipped past more than half of it as it was so hard to keep watching. not a movie i recommend seeing unless you are looking for how not to make a movie. I'm shooting from a lower position than those who made this film but i am sure i can at least produce a dragon looks rendered or at least in colour.
