Dragonheart - DTS Good time - Zero -
Dragonheart is a fun movie. Its no great work of art, but I liked it when it first came out, and it was fun to see it again.
: In the closing paragraph of his 1996 review of Dragonheart, noted critic Roger Ebert summed up this adventurous fantasy quite nicely: “While no reasonable person over the age of 12 would presumably be able to take it seriously, there is nevertheless a lighthearted joy to it, a cheerfulness, an insouciance, that recalls the days when movies were content to be fun.” That’s precisely the quality that makes Dragonheart so appealing, despite the fact that it didn’t exactly take flight and breathe fire at the box office. The movie takes itself seriously without sacrificing the wit and cleverness that make it so entertaining. It’s about the last of the great dragon slayers, Bowen (Dennis Quaid), who teams up with the last of the great dragons, Draco (and voiced by Sean Connery), after they realize that killing each other would put them both out of business! So they devise a bogus dragon-slaying act that’s a huge hit as they tour from village to village. Later, they must rouse the peasantry against the loutish Prince Einon (David Thewlis), whose life was once saved by Draco, but who now violates the “Old Code” of honor with a ruthless reign of terror. As Ebert rightly noted, Dragonheart is no masterpiece, and its story (which was originally conceived as a darker, more serious drama) isn’t likely to capture everyone’s heart (dragon or otherwise). But it’s full of exciting action, witty dialogue, and gallant heroism, and in the presentation of a realistic talking dragon it’s a milestone in computer-generated special effects, far surpassing the breakthroughs of Jurassic Park three years earlier. –Jeff Shannon.

Dragonslayer [VHS] RELEASE THIS MOVIE ON BLU-RAY PLEASE!! - Devildog - Virginia
Hey folks don’t you think it’s long overdue that this movie be put on blu-ray??? I’d buy it, hoping the transfer looked good :)
: Despite its box-office failure in 1981, Dragonslayer was gradually recognized as one of the finest fantasies to emerge from the post-Star Wars boom in special effects. It’s still one of the best adventures of its kind, featuring one of the most fearsome fire-breathing serpents in movie history. Ominously named Vermithrax Pejorative, this ill-tempered monster terrorizes the peasantry of sixth-century England, feeding on maidens sacrificed by a duplicitous king until a sorcerer’s apprentice named Galen (Peter MacNicol, long before Ally McBeal) is recruited as a reluctant hero. Aided by a tenacious beauty (Caitlin Clarke) and his resurrected mentor (Ralph Richardson), Galen confronts the soaring beast in a breathtaking climax. Employing a then-innovative technique called Go-Motion to animate the dragon, the special effects are still dazzling, and stunning locations in Scotland and Wales allow director Matthew Robbins (cowriter of Steven Spielberg’s feature debut, The Sugarland Express) to maintain a vivid atmosphere for the wealth of movie magic. –Jeff Shannon
