This just wasn't a good movie in general, I've read half the book, I've seen half this movie, and the movie is hardly like the book! They cut out a lot of things and just sped through the story. I didn't enjoy it, and I'm a guy who enjoys a lot of movies. I was really hoping for something better! Just don't watch it. The book is worth ten hours of your time, but this movie isn't worth one!

This is a bad film and nothing like the book at all. However, to be fair, the book probably could never be made into a movie that was good. Also, it wasn't as terrible as it could have been. Jeremy Irons and Rachel Weisz were good in their roles and Robert Carlyle was so ridiculously over-the-top as Durza it actually made me laugh.

From the trailer, this film had a lot of great anticipation. It looked absolutely amazing and also looked to be the first in a new great fantasy film franchise, following Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter. What we get though is a bloated and terrible film, which resembles more of an old 1980s fantasy film. The film has a typical plot, a young boy realizes that he is a warrior who can help defeat an evil king. The film has many well known great actors in it, such as Jeremy Irons, John Malkovich and Robert Carlyle. Malkovich seems to ham it up in many of the scenes that he is in. The only great part of the film is the special effects, particularly of the dragon. This film is a good example of a film adaptation that doesn't gel and where a studio perfectly abolishes the novel, by making a terrible adaptation of an interesting novel.

The books are amazing and any of you who thinks its not ( I don't care if you're the damn president) don't know a good book ...The movie on the other hand was horrific it was the worst movie based off a book I have ever seen

An inconsistent, generic, and overall cliched film containing plot and character archetypes that have already been created one too many times by earlier works.

I don't really remember anything positive about this film, other than it wasn't completely unwatchable. But that isn't saying much.

Start with the GOOD, for the one thing they did good was in fact excellent.Saphira the starring dragoness was gorgeous! Even the odd choice of giving her feathers looked good. And the voice provided by Rachel Weisz was beautiful!The "Meh" - Jeremy Irons was a miscast, but was the only actor who tried adding depth to his role.The BAD - Bad acting, including the laughably worst from John Malcovich. Rushed script even skipped over what good elements were in the book. And poor production value that looks like a tv special.

Boring, mediocre acting, and decent effects. Nothing was really outstanding about this movie at all, but it's STILL more bearable than the books.

While I don't think its as bad as many seem to think it is its still a fantasy movie that completely rips off the original Star Wars beat for beat. Good action and decent effects but that can only get you so far
