This is really a highly anticipated movie. Cineleisure is going all out to promote it…there is this whole magic, sci-fi, games and comics fare and the mainstage has to be…Yup, Eragon. Very good marketing effort. But seriously let get on with the movie shall we? (Groan~!)

Extremely good movie. I give it a 5 star rating…..if I was an 8 year old. But what a pity that I am not. As far as dragons go in movies its a good depiction of one. Dragon Heart had a male dragon with Sir Sean Connery’s voice. Lots of character that one. This dragon in this here movie…Eragon(”Era Gone” if I were to rename it)…has a female dragon. Cool….Saphira (thats the dragon’s name voiced by Rachel Weisz) has a motherly touch and surely doesn’t scare the wits out of babies.

Getting on now…John Malkovich is King Galbatorix, which in my personal opinion is fathomed by the writer of the novel who loves Asterix the comic does a pathetic job. C’mon…a highly accomplished actor with a movie named after himself surely he could have sensed of how completely wrong that he should be in a Childrens Television Workshop type of production.

The rest of the cast is not worth mentioning much since the most accomplished of actors failed as a Villain King. What really saved this movie is not the Peter and Jane script, or the sorceror that can conjour an evil equivalant of a dragon, nor the battle of Lego Land proportions….its yes the motherly mighty dragon herself. I can live with that.

If you are a parent and your kids are still in post diapers blues, this is a perfect movie to spend quality family time. The computer graphics animation will not astound you but catching the reaction of your kids reacting to the magical allure of a mystical creature will be priceless. Too bad my dad is nearing sixty and I could no longer fit in my kindergarten uniform because I bet I would have loved it.

Thank you…

I could understand sometimes the same things keep happening. I could understand sometime we come across an incident that we think we might have experienced before. Deja Vu? I have a bout of flu and I decided to extend my medical leave and catch a movie. Honestly from the start its all about stuff repeating itself but in a slightly different way.

Danzel acts his usual authority outfit. But this here is a movie not about the acting or some hot and sexy upcoming star. Here is a movie where the storyline reigns in to you and grips you by the scuff and gets you thinking about what ifs. Its an action drama with a bit of sci-fi thrown in. Its not like Time-Cop or Total Recall its more down to earth… human behavior comes across ethics and faith. There are grey areas in the movie of course but its not to discuss about the consequences of time travelling. Its just a simple answer to what if you had the chance to change the past to make it better.

I loved it no doubt. From the beginning right till the end the scenes are riddled with clues to challenge a movie buff to figure out the ending. Humor? Its full of sarcasm in the most discreet way. I bet you not many will laugh watching it cause only those you have been payng attention will understand. You want a good movie to think about? Or you think that the term break is slowing down your brains? Go ahead and watch this….it wont win awards but it will get you to think how God works in mysterious ways.
