Movie Reviews of Dragonlance - Dragons Of The Autumn Twilight
Movie Review: I Like it.
Summary: 4 Stars
I gave this movie four stars. Not because it's a 4 star film. But because I do like it. I don't hate this movie. I wish that it could have had a slower pace and the animation was really lacking. But, it told the story and I have high hopes for the next one. There had better be a next one, guys! I've been listening to Tracy's podcast and find it incredibly entertaining and informative. You learn a lot about the behind the scenes action that went on both in writing the books and getting this movie made. For those who critique this movie too harshly, I suggest you take a moment to find out just what it took for this movie to even happen. It's been a long journey. So, for all it's faults, it was a labor of love and we should be grateful that it even happened. And, again, for all it's faults, it's not a bad movie.
Summary of Dragonlance - Dragons Of The Autumn Twilight
After 300 hundred years of peace the world of Krynn has descended into darkness as the evil goddess Takhisis and her army of dragons threaten to dominate the lands. Can a small band of heroes including the wizard Raistlin (Kiefer Sutherland) the priestess Goldmoon (Lucy Lawless) and the half-elven warrior Tanis (Michael Rosenbaum) save the world before all is lost? Based on the New York Times best-selling novel DRAGONLANCE: DRAGONS OF AUTUMN TWILIGHT is an epic tale of might magic and monsters!System Requirements:Running Time: 100 Mins.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: ANIMATION/ANIME UPC: 097368523043 Manufacturer No: 852304Based on the first in a series of countless fantasy books by bestselling authors Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman Dragonlance: Dragons of Autumn Twilight is the first animated feature-length film spun from the venerable Dungeons and Dragons role-playing game. The 90-minute feature hews as closely to the 400-plus-page source material as possible--in a nutshell, a group of adventurers seek to head off the evil plans of a multi-headed dragon goddess and her army with the help of a crystal staff--and there is plentiful swordplay and spellcasting to keep younger viewers entranced. And the voice talent, which includes Kiefer Sutherland, Xena's Lucy Lawless, and Michael Rosenbaum of Smallville, does a respectable job of making the heavy-handed dialogue sound believable. However, the animation (a mix of 2D and CGI) is truly dreadful, and brings the epic scope of the story down to the level of Saturday morning cartoons. Supplemental material might've helped make this middling DVD more palatable, but sadly, there's only a few clips of original test animation (which looks slightly better than the finished product) and a gallery of early character designs. --Paul Gaita
