Very loose sequel to Dragonheart remembered and sympathetic. The really bad thing about this sequel is that too note the limited budget that probably should have, on the sets, costumes and setting, but particularly in the digital effects of the dragon, which, although not totally bad, is more typical of a television series. The story, as pretty dodgy, full of good intentions and little or almost no pretensions. What the old Chinese girl and I found funny and fun, however, as well as crossing the western European mythology with Chinese. To pass the time and little else.

Funny thing is, I just watched the original a few hours ago. I borrowed the DVD from the library and it came with the double pack with both movies. So of course I was going to watch the second one too.Hahahaha what a joke. This movie pales in comparison to the former. I really gave this a chance as I know you can't make a sequel or a prequel exactly the same and I accept that totally. However, the story wasn't strong, the acting was pretty bad with some of it being way over the top and not to mention some dodgy special effects in terms of the dragons.The beginning was rather promising because I felt it was going to go down an interesting direction but then it just got extremely silly. In particular, it felt like I was watching a cross between the Karate Kid with the Asian character kung fu added in - and it wasn't necessary not to mention that it looked really corny and stupid.Christopher Masterson doesn't bring much at all to his character and while he is more effective in Malcolm In the Middle, his take on a dramatic character fails. This is not helped by the rest of the cast who look like they are taking part in a school play instead of a film.The dragon named 'Drake' at times looked a bit fuzzy in terms of the visuals but also isn't as charismatic as Draco in the first film - and he looked way more real in that.The narrative done in this was also unnecessary as though they think the audience will engage more with the story but it only makes it feel like the audience is clueless as to what is going on.All I can commend is the attempt they made to make it fun and to try to capture the warmth of the first one - other than that they failed miserably.

This actually is a worthy sequel to "Dragonheart". OK it misses the magical atmosphere, good special effects and cast but it still is a movie worth seeing.Good things about the movie are the nicely choreographed fight sequence's and the pretty solid and satisfying end fight. Also the movie provides some successful comical moments.Still there are some major flaws in the movie. The story itself about the prophecy is quite weak and silly and it's hard to tell at times who are exactly the bad guys, due to some poor casting and bad story telling. Some of the scene's were also edited poorly together. The special effects are far from the best ever but also far from the worst. They look acceptable enough.Robby Benson (best know for voicing the beast in Disney's "Beauty and the Beast".) wasn't exactly the best choice to voice Drake, he's boring and makes some of the dialog sound silly. Overall the acting is pretty solid by the rest of the cast, of unknown actors.With some more work on the script, this movie could have been really great. I certainly wouldn't mind seeing a third "Dragonheart" movie being made.6/10http://bobafett1138.blogspot.com/

i thought that it was better than the first,but that is my opinion.i know that many others think this film was bogus.but the first one had more action in it and thats why.but the girl in this one was outrageous.so you don't half to agree on this one.
