Better Late Then Never

This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

DRAGON WARRIORS is an appallingly bad comedy fantasy flick that seems to have been shot on a green screen throughout. The story features constant poor-quality dragons and monsters animated by rubbishy CGI, alongside damsels in distress, heroic knights, and supporting comedy relief characters. The actors given the most overblown performances ever, performances which would be considered over the top for your average provincial pantomime. Poor old James Marsters ends up being relentlessly hammy years on from his turn in BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER, while Luke Perry looks old and haggard. DRAGON WARRIORS truly is a film only for the sadomasochists among us.

I went to the showing of this film at the Chicago Comedy Film festival last evening and I must say I couldn't understand how this film ever got listed as a comedy. Except for some nipple humor and marrying your cousin, it wasn't that funny. It seemed delighted to borrow heavily from Star Wars, Lord of the Rings and Princess Bride, which made it way too predictable and trivial. The only funny thing about this was that the film was it was shown on an XBox machine at this theater and I'm sure the projectionist union loved that. Skip this film all together. Watch the Princess Bride instead. That's funny.

Low budget fantasy comedies have tremendous potential to be horrible. I went to the premiere with low expectations. Needless to say I was blown away by what I saw. This movie is absolutely TERRIFIC! I am not the only one who feels this way. The theater was filled to capacity and every person there was rolling on the floor laughing throughout the entire film. The script was very cleverly written and references so many of the beloved movies we grew up with.Apparently the entire movie was shot on the green screen. I don't know how they pulled it off but the CGI looks way better than you expect from a low budget film. The acting/directing was also super well done. I have no idea what the distribution of this film will be but would be shocked if it is not picked up by a larger studio for theatrical in the US. I went expecting a 3 and came away giving it a 10. Kudos to the filmmakers who pulled it off. Can't wait to see it again in theaters.

I just got back from watching the Salt Lake City premiere of "Dragon Warriors" and I LOVED it! This was a rollicking adventure, and I highly recommend it. It had all kinds of intertextuality, with references to "Star Wars," "The Princess Bride," "He-Man," and even a little "Titanic!" It's a love story with a little sorcery, and a lot of laughter. I can tell you this-- ask your theater to order this movie, and then take all of your friends to go see it. I can't give away too much more of the plot without revealing spoilers, but I think it's a stealth hit in the making. What's not to love when you have beautiful maidens in need of rescuing, an evil wizard with a bad temper and a fondness for his cousin, a couple of brothers who would like to become heroes, and a couple of sidekicks who steal the show?!
