5.0 out of 5 stars Almost Feature-Film Quality, January 21, 2005

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Dragons - Fire & Ice (DVD)

I actually liked this movie a lot. For a direct-to-video release, it was above and beyond par and exceeded all expectations.

1) The story made sense AND was relatively interesting (gasp!--a novel concept in the world of DTV releases!)

2) They actually did a lot of cool stylization; Celtic and Oriental--you can tell they put work into it (WORK!--yet another of the many unheard of concepts when making a DTV movie!)

3) The designs of the characters and even the dragons were pretty cool with only a few minor exceptions (see! MORE work and effort! The surprises go on and on!)

4) The opening backstory wasn't just "blah, blah, blah"; they actually had put some effort into the style and so continued it in the opening--which was actually cool (they didn't even stray into the realm of cliched storybook openings!)

5) An actual PLOT TWIST (oh, it's TOO MUCH!)

Really, the only downside was that the characters didn't move so well and a few minor coreography/fighting details that even most feature films miss. All in all, I applaud the makers--this movie is good in the DTV release view. It could even hold its own among some feature films.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Male AND Female characters, November 26, 2004

By 

Ned D. Okra IV (Earth) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Dragons - Fire & Ice (DVD)

This was good for BOTH boys AND girls. The female main character, for once, was a real character, as opposed to a love interest. And when she fought, she actually fought as opposed to "fought sexily." And the energy between the two characters was unique and kinda sweet. Add all the wizards, explosions, troll-like villans and pretty well-done fights and you've got a decent mix. The only complaint I had was that the only other female character was dead. What of both of the main characters' mother's too?

4.0 out of 5 stars Surprisingly Good, April 18, 2006

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Dragons - Fire & Ice (DVD)

My little brother was jabbering about this for days when he discovered that Megabloks had made a movie. I was a little skeptical at first. I thought the movie wouldn't be any good or the bad guys might be too scary for him.

Turns out, after looking all over for a movie store that had it for rent, it was a really good movie! Everyone enjoyed it, even me! The story was good, the bad guy(s) were mean and creepy, and the dragons were AWESOME!!! They were my favorite part; aside from Princess Kyra and her cool martial art skills.

I was happy that the main guy in a movie got shown up for once.

Kyra and Dev had a short fighting sequence and Kyra must've knocked the prince down at least three times!

The dragons were very cool! The wing flaps and tail movements were very realistic. The legs were realistic too, but the dragons didn't walk that much.

Anyway, it was a great movie and I'm glad I had the chance to watch it. If you like dragons, creepy wizards, and sword fights, you will love this movie!!!

Now, if only Megabloks could make their building toys as good as their movies.
