It is not only a funny movie, but it allows a great amount of joy for anyone who watches it.

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

I enjoyed the few things I've seen Mark Singer in, unfortunately this was not one of them. He looks like he's trying to portray Popeye or something. His grizzled old warrior look just doesn't cut it.The fight scenes in this movie are the worst I have ever seen. The main female character uses two sticks as her main weapon. Too bad no one ever trained her how to use them. Whenever she fights it looks sooooo bad I want to cry. She usually ends up having them taken away from her anyway, which makes sense considering how bad she is at using them.The absolute best part that has anything to do with fighting is just before Mark Singer's character goes in to save the "kid", he pulls a few practice moves with his sword that look awesome. Most likely he remembered those moves from Beast Master because it's obvious whoever was choreographing the fights had no clue. It's also obvious the actors (and I use the term loosely) had little opportunity to practice.There are a few scenes where the movie tries to be epic with large battles, but fails miserably because the computer effects were so bad. The company that made these effects should just stop now while they're ahead, and perhaps those people working there should gain employment in the wonderful world of fast foods because their computer skills suck.The only effect even close to passable is the dragon itself. That's because in the few scenes it is in, they either take up the whole screen with it so you cannot compare it to the background, or it's flying around so fast again you cannot really compare it to anything else in the scene.This company did not have the funds to pull off a movie like this, and would have been better off to make a movie that did not require sophisticated effects because ALL of the effects in this movie FAIL.I should also mention how cliché' the story is, but you can read the other reviews for that.I'm really sorry Mark. I've enjoyed you in other productions, but this one just smells too bad.

The film deserves a negative rating... it is terrible! Seriously i don't know why it was even made all copies should be destroyed!typical orphaned farm boy chosen to save the world story(stolen from eragon)he has to complete these obvious and very very easy tasks to earn "virtue" stones to fill some pendant thing. so the plot is old and repeated. the budget must have cut back on Katya's (farm boy's acquaintance/sidekick) clothing as she hardly wears anything!hardly know much about most characters they just pop in and out!the effects are dire the dragon was on fire half the time and at the end some ice dragon came and fought it. even though throughout the whole film there were no mention of the ice dragon. all in all DO NOT WATCH IT, EVER!! IT IS CRAPER THAN CRAP! although if you want to laugh for a while the effects are soooo terrible they will put you in to fits i don't think this was intentional!!

My reviews always contain spoilers, I just can't seem to avoid them. So if you don't want to know about the most dumbest things that happened in this movie, I would suggest reading someone else's review. I'm sure that they will all say the same thing. First of all, I'm really glad that I didn't pay to see this movie because it would have been a complete waste of my money. I wouldn't say that it wasted 1,5 hours of my life because I got a few great laughs!The beginning starts and there's immediate drama about how Arkadi isn't ready for his "quest". 5 minutes later he is the only one that can save mankind and he goes out on this so called "quest". The whole thing surrounds 6(?) stones that Arkadi has to look for and collect to be able to gain power after his dead grandfather, who was an old keeper of harmony, told him that he was the "keeper". Arkadi then locates an old warrior who helps him, but then the old guy dies at the end. But not before finding a pretty girl to accompany him on his quest. (Anyone seen Dragonball Evolution? Yeeaah...). The dragon looked a little good for a while there, but then it started flying... Who ever made the special effects clearly had no idea what he/she was doing. The fight scenes took the price! 2 huge armies (of 10 people) battle, the king dies and everything goes still. The entire war just stops and the king's servants do the epic "Nooooooooooo!"Basically, this is what Lord of the Rings would have looked like if they would have had the budget of a 10yearold's allowance. One positive thing is that Dragonquest had that one thing that Lord of the Rings didn't. A pretty female warrior. The negative thing... she was a Mini-Xena in a tube top and hot-pants...And what really bothered me was that Arkadi kept sounding British and then not British. His accent kept popping up all the time and then it disappeared again. All in all, the story was kinda good. I just wish it was made better 'cause then it would have been a good movie.But if you feel like watching a girl in hot-pants swing around a pair of sticks and a plastic sword... then please, watch it!

If you're younger than ten, you might find this movie exiting. If not this movie will be a waste of your time. The characters are all flat and cliché, their actions predictable, just as the 'coincidents' in the storyline. You know the boy and the girl will hook up, even though there is no chemistry between them at all. You know the boy will defeat the Super Evil Demonic Bad Guy, even though he doesn't really do anything to deserve such a victory, got no dragonfighting experience and makes one stupid mistake after another. The special effects are pretty lousy and the dragons that appear are in no way believable.Here a short summary: Boy lives in village. Super Evil Demonic Bad Monster shows up, burning and eating everyone. Boy surprisingly turns out to be the 'chosen one'. Boy must seek stones to complete his medaillonthingy. He meets: Super Strong Fighting Good Girl (She's going to betray him after she got brainwashed by the Super Evil Demonic Magic of a Super Evil Demonic Mirror, but in the end everything will be okay) and Super Strong Fighting Good Old Guy. (He dies, thank you God!)Then there are: A Super Brave Fightin Selfsacrificing King, A Super Evil Bad Trader Guy, A Super Evil Stupid Blind Spider and the Super Evil Demonic Bad Guy Himself.The boy fights the Super Evil Demonic Bad Guy and, of course, at first it seems like the hero is going to lose (Whahaha, yeah right!), then suddenly he wins because his magic (which he just discovered) is stronger for no particular reason. The girl walks up to the boy and kisses him, also for no particular reason. They look at their Super Strong Good Dragon (who came up in the last 2 minutes to fight the Super Evil Demonic Monster) flying in the sky. END.There is actually one scene in this movie that I really liked: The battle between the two armies, somewhere at the beginning of this picture. It was kind of arty.
