Review of DragonHeart

DragonHeart (1996)
A Truly Great Film
21 April 2001
In my Opinion,This is one of the Best and most underrated films of 1996.In fact this film is impossible to Dislike...The performances,The great effects,the humour,the great scenary shots and the films visual style are all top notch.

The only complaints about this film...is that the story gets a little sluggish in spots...And David Thewlis,in his Sonny Bono Wig,Comes off as more Hilarious..than Frightening...as the Evil king.

Other than that..this is truly one of the Greats...with Sean connery Carrying the film with his Dragon...and Dennis Quaid doing a wonderful job as the slayer...(Pete postlewaite also shows a surprising Flair for Comedy as the Bumbling Brother Gilbert).

The final"To the Stars"sequence is one of the best endings ever...and the scene where they go to avalon(The final resting place of Sir King Arthur)is dazzling...

The film makers should take a bow...They have given us a gem....I give this 10 out of 10
