MoPoshy Absolutely brilliant

Melanie Bouvet The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

Adeel Hail Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.

Ginger 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.

Horror Icon I had the misfortune of watching this movie 3/4 of the way through before saying that I couldn't watch anymore. Potentially the worst movie I have watched, there was literally nothing I enjoyed in it. The acting was dreadful, as was the costuming, dialogue, storyline, props, romance and setting. Yet the worst of all...the VIDEO. Who WAS the cameraman? Was he a cameraman? Was he even a person? By the looks of the footage during the battle sequences, the camera was being held by a drunken ape who didn't know which way was up. Either (a) the cameraman WAS a drunken chimp or (b), he was purposefully using blurred footage to hide the fact that the so-called "orcs" looked more like guys in gorilla suits. Though the fight scene footage is the worst, it is worth noting that the cameraman seemed to randomly try out doing national geographic video by zooming in on leaves or plants in the forest. Instead of videoing people, or mountains, or scenery, he zoomed in on a bush. WORST MOVIE EVER!

kaeng If you take a look at the rating the experience of watching this movie will offer you no surprises. It is not a good movie. I will go even so far as to call it a bad movie.Now, as to what makes this movie so bad, I would say "the characters". Oh, I might even exclaim "The characters!". For they possess absolutely no depth. They are shallow husks, waiting to be filled with life and back story. And the the other thing is the really bad camera work. Whenever there is a fight scene the camera starts shaking so you can't make out anything. I am not yet sure if the camera operator got a seizure from excitement or if he got bored and started polishing Lord Vader's helmet, if you catch my meaning. I hope it was the latter, so at least one person got some fun out of this whole mess.

cyanideghost Its so bad, its hilarious. The whole plot is a joke. Firstly, I couldn't treat the actress who is in one of the most popular shows on Television (Two and a Half Men) as an Elven Archer. It was even more preposterous when she started wielding powers and that cheesy line where she claims she didn't think much of humans until she met the lead hero, who let's face it is a complete washout and a loser and a bit of a drama queen. I almost never rate movies as a 1, this would be my first that deserves to be in the bottom 10, let alone bottom 100. I was laughing throughout it was so terribly awful. Do yourselves a favour, don't watch this, save 1.5 hours of your life. The dragon in the beginning scene was okay, when they finally revealed it, it was AWFULLY like those plastic figures, and was literally catching arrows. What kind of dragon catches arrows and chucks them aside like its a shooting gallery? Was the entire cast high during the making and shooting of this movie? Did no one just spit on your faces for coming up with lousy plots? Seriously, nobody should have to watch a fake garbage movie like this. Then there's the faulty camera, even a 2 year old can hold a camera still during battle sequences and action scenes. There was virtually nothing but just cheesy one liners and fake plastic with gibberish in the background. I'm disgusted with this, and frankly that actress Kelly Stables DESERVES TO LOSE HER CAREER. FIRE HER FROM 2 AND A HALF MEN, SHE'S ANNOYING AND HIDEOUS and a lunatic for accepting this role. Anyways, off to watch a better movie, my 2 cents, save your money, don't rent this or watch it, you will feel cheated throughout.

aridale I went into this movie not expecting anything. I knew nothing about it aside from the link here and decided to give it a blind watch. It started out kinda shaky but it turned out to be quite good. Don't get me wrong this is no blockbuster. I don't know what the budget was or how long it took to make and it seemed like they probably had to have some really good friends to pull of the cgi that it had as the dragon was quite well done. The interactions WITH said dragon were a lil iffy but on the whole the effects team did quite well. Friends or talented upstarts lookin to get their names on somethin, I dunno but they did a very competent job.Im not sure if I got used to it or they stopped somewhere around the halfway mark but the overly shaky "fight cam" effect was no where near as bad later in the movie as it was during the initial fight scene with the orcs. It wasn't "gritty camera man chasin the action" style either it was "omg the camera guys got the palsy and is shaking uncontrollably" But it seemed to be only that initial scene... either that or I got used to it for the remainder.The acting was overall good. There were no moments when I really was taken out of the scene by bad lines or bad acting. The overly dramatic "NOOOOOOO!" scene was over the top and should be easy to spot if you watch the movie and a lot of it wasn't overly believable I mean I know it was a training montage but it came across more like "trained for a week and is now a badass" type thing.Anyway no MAJOR gripes. Only thing I could really complain about is its too short so it lacked any real depth that coulda made it all the better. I can see this expanded some remade with a good budget and with more character development and itd be fantastic.All in a good lil movie and very surprising. And Kelly Stables doesn't hurt either... very easy on the eyes =D
