Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
If you don't like this, we can't be friends.
This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
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.
Although I said before that I would probably never do this again, I lied. The movie is watchable, and in my wife's opinion (which I respect) was 'nice'. It's not all the horrible things that the 'critics' say it is. It is a 'nice' movie and was watchable for a movie night that I had no idea what to pick which usually results in me picking a movie that I think might be good but for no reason other than I think "why not?". Sometimes it really works out, most of the time it doesn't, but it's never 'bad'. This movie is in the 'it's not bad' category. Dang, once again I'm hit with the 10 line minimum and I really thought I could get past it via the old 'high school essay method' of double spacing my response. Sadly, it doesn't work. They reformat your text. So I have to babble on just to qualify. Seems a little silly, doesn't it?
"Dragonheart 3: The Sourcerer's Curse" is a fun fantasy movie with brilliant action sequences and just enough story to keep most viewers entertained. The film is immediately better than its "A New Beginning" predecessor and is a decent sequel to the original, incorporating enough of the lore and original score to make any fan geek out for a moment.The film starts out at a brilliant pace, but is held back by some really glossy character development towards the middle, but is ultimately redeemed by its final action set piece and good casting choices. It is not clear where the film takes place in the time-line, but it seems to take place decades or even a century or two before the first film on the series.The ending sets up the now confirmed "Dragonheart 4" which will be a great film if Universal can continue and/or improve the the quality.Most of the people giving this film a low rating have not even seen the film and are a disgrace to critics everywhere.
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
