If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.
Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.
Hadrian's Wall was built by the Romans occupying Britain in the 2nd century. Its purpose was to keep the various tribes of Druids from crossing over into the area south of the wall. While the wall roughly parallels the present day border between England and Scotland it is completely in present day England, and towards its east end is as much as 68 miles south of Scotland.This fictitious story is set in that time, and features Julian Morris as Gareth, a Squire who has been in training to become a Knight. There is a medium sized village nestled into the wall on the south side and one of the tasks of the Squires is to collect "tax money" from the residents, presumably for the protection afforded. But when Gareth came back "a bit light" in the coin sack, for taking pity on a potter whose business had turned down, Gareth was denied Knighthood. So he escapes over the wall into Druid territory and witnesses a giant ball of fire from the sky, upon finding it the next day, and chiseling on it to see if he can extract some gold, the big rocky ball explodes and out comes a full grown dragon, which he names Drago (voiced by Ben Kingsley). Drago had also been carrying 9 dragon eggs for safety until they were ready to hatch. When Gareth is injured by an arrow Drago transfers some of his Dragon magic to Gareth, this goes to his heart, he has become a dragonheart. In the process Gareth also encounters Druid warrior Tamzin Merchant as Rhonu, good with bow and arrow and also hand-to-hand fighting. Together they and Drago fight the good fight to overcome the bad Druids and also to break open the gate to the wall for passage to the south side. It is all fantasy, the CI is good and overall the costuming and acting are good, for those who enjoy this type of fantasy story.
The CGI was so good has the first one i taught in the beginning that dragon heart 3 was going to have the same simple CGI has the 2th one but i was wrong. i just waited just 2 days for the movie to be released. i never knew that dragon heart 3 was being made. it was announced around the summer of 2014 but i never saw anything about it to me it came out of no were. i was actually looking on the web something about dragonheart 1 and the trailer of dragon heart 3 came to me out of nowhere and i was glad to know about it 2 days before its digital hd release because if i had knew about mounts before the release i just be to excited to sleep wondering if we were going to have the same sad ending has the first movie i actually spoiled the movie for my self i skipped to the end to know if the dragon dies or not. but in final word Dragon heart 3 was satisfying at least to me i don't expect this movie to have high IMDb ratings but i hope higher than dragonheart 2
I think we all know that nothing will ever compare to the original DragonHeart and Draco will always be the best dragon of all time, but I really enjoyed this sequel. Much better than the second(though I still enjoyed that one as a kiddo). Its a little cheesy, but I still loved it. I might just be a huge DragonHeart nerd. I liked the story line, I think they put more thought into it this time around. It was a fun adventure and the effects of the curse were very interesting! I enjoyed most of the characters. I feel it must be a requirement of the DragonHeart movies to have an annoying monk ha but they all grow on you. I think Drago and Gareth were fantastic. This is a fun new chapter to the wonderful story that we have known and loved for almost 20 years.
One of the main feature of this kind of movie is that the protagonists are always people who hold the justice above all while the antagonists play with their own set of rules. And of course the general rules of Hollywood applies as well; i.e.: the hero is always full of hesitation when it comes to make a final decision. This is so annoying when you watch a movie that defy logic of common sense. However, that is what Hollywood is all about and as long as there are suckers who will pay for this kind of video, there will be people making it. The story begin with all the wrong theme. It start with some historical fact but then it digress into something of a fantasy which was what it was originally intended. To make it more complicated, a castle is created with the "king" who can knighted a commoner to become a knight just because this guy can collect tax for him ? And of course a dragon which looks enormous during the fight but small during rest ? To complete the fantasy, a female protagonist is created with the feature of an American Indian complete with the face tattooed with lines. One of the things which I could not understand is why people with money in Hollywood always fall for this kind of stupid video. Don't they have any brain and common sense and choose to finance a better story....
