The greatest movie ever made..!

A story that's too fascinating to pass by...

The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

Was scrolling through Prime and searched for fantasy films to get up to date on fantasy films, and saw this and Orcs! This film did Not disappointment, and made me an Adam Johnson fan- love his humor. The film is low budget, but so what? Does a film need to cost $100md to have a great plot and solid acting? The story is classic, with nods to LOTR, Star Wars, and more. Many scenes had me rolling with laughter! Excellent writing, timing and directing! Will watch again and again!

An evil wizard, Lord Tensley (James Marsters), seeks the hand and heart of the beautiful princess, Lady Ennogard. When she refuses, he locks her away and releases a deadly dragon, which he controls, to terrorize the land. He vows that, until she accepts his love, his dragon will destroy all who dare display any sign of love throughout the kingdom.As I understand it, this movie began with crowd funding, which was successful, and under the name "Dragon Warriors" went around to various festivals and received generally positive feedback. When picked up by Momentum, it received a name change. Exactly why is unclear, but maybe it was a legal thing because of the RPG of the same name. I am not a fan of the new name, because it makes the movie sound of lower quality than it actually is. But maybe others disagree.There are some cheesy special effects, but this actually may be appropriate for how silly the movie is. While at first I was doubtful, it surprised me with its charm and clever writing. In contrast to the effects, the costumes and makeup are really good. One of the main characters is an orc, and his makeup (or mask) is as good as any Hollywood film.What the film amounts to is a very strange parody. Someone else compared it to a mix between "Lord of the Rings" and "Princess Bride". I disagree, but they may not be far off. The nods to "Rings" are clear, and there are more than a few "Star Wars" jokes. But they are actually clever, rather than hackneyed like on "Big Bang Theory". You can tell the writer really gets it. When the damsel in distress says, "Help me if you want to hold me, you're my only hope," I was in love with the movie. It was at that point I knew they were really having fun and even ready to poke fun at themselves for having that fun.Interestingly, while everyone else is tongue-in-cheek, Marsters plays it straight in most scenes. This provides an excellent balance, and actually makes him an even more important character than just being "the bad guy". He is also the one who ends up grounding the humor. Compare him to Adam Johnson as Ramicus, who steals the show in every scene. I have not seen much of Johnson's work, but he has excellent deadpan comic timing and delivery.Whether or not this movie will appeal to everyone, I do not know. But I feel the nerds of the world will get a chuckle. Again, when compared to "Big Bang Theory", you can tell the people involved in this movie really get the culture and are not trying to make fun of the fans or reduce it to stereotypes. There is a true intelligence at work here that has to be admired.

I have been following this film for a long time. I originally found it from James Marsters Facebook page which led me to Kickstarter. It took so long for it to be completed that I had given up all hope. When I heard the premiere was happening I had no idea what to expect but thought I would go find out. I am glad I did. The movie surpassed my expectations in every way. It was funny, clever, well written and amazingly executed. Some of the CGI isn't the greatest but at the same time it was never bad enough to pull me out of the movie. The acting in this film was great. I am a big fan of James Marsters but I especially loved the lead character played by Adam Johnson. He was spot on with the comedy. Hope it does well. It sure deserves it.

I just got back from watching the Salt Lake City premiere of "Dragon Warriors" and I LOVED it! This was a rollicking adventure, and I highly recommend it. It had all kinds of intertextuality, with references to "Star Wars," "The Princess Bride," "He-Man," and even a little "Titanic!" It's a love story with a little sorcery, and a lot of laughter. I can tell you this-- ask your theater to order this movie, and then take all of your friends to go see it. I can't give away too much more of the plot without revealing spoilers, but I think it's a stealth hit in the making. What's not to love when you have beautiful maidens in need of rescuing, an evil wizard with a bad temper and a fondness for his cousin, a couple of brothers who would like to become heroes, and a couple of sidekicks who steal the show?!
