Watch Dragon Nest: Warriors' Dawn For Free

Highly Overrated But Still Good

It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

Blistering performances.

Practical first For Parents: I watched it with my kid, and I enjoyed it as much as him. Might be a bit dark for young impressionable kids, but there isn't much gore per se, no blood, but lots of battle violence. Dragon Nest: Warriors Dawn, was overall, a wonderful production. I am your average person who really enjoys movies, animation, gaming, and mythology. I am a fan of D&D type games and story and this movie feels exactly like this! I had to write this because so many reviews were very unfair. There is no way in the world this movie deserves anything under 6, if you are being overly critical. The Movie "The Apocalypse 2007" deserves a 1/10 or 2/10 if you're being generous... just saying. Please be fair in your ratings. This title has good sound effect, Great animation, Good voice acting, very cool, familiar Character types: ( light and dark elves, sorcerers, barbarians, rogues, etc), humour, drama, everything that makes a story interesting and engaging. GREAT MUSIC, by that I mean: subtle, timeless, classical instrument based that sets the tone for every scene and emotion, it's always there but it never interferes with the story, very little pop, in other words... well done!Also, Can I just say that if you are a fan of any fantasy lore, D&D base games, anime or video games, you will LOVE this. Yes this is inspired from various fantasy lore, games and/or actual folklore, but people should realize that Tolkien did not invent fairy/ Elven/ Fantasy lore... Come on. Neither does Final Fantasy games own all rights to fantasy/ Magic animations. It's not a rip off of Wow (if anything, WOW is a ripoff of so many things of pop culture) Too many over critical people not appreciating it for what it is. Honestly, there are not enough animations like this! So much fun to watch. It is not completely original in it's genre but this does not make the beautiful animation, fun action combat scenes, silliness, drama, adorable characters any less good.Looking forward to the sequel in the summer of 2016!

Building a movie from online multiplayer games is not easy. These games are known for social interaction or accessible gameplay, not strong narrative. Dragon Nest animation resorts to utilizing mediocre antics from many other games or movies, then put it in one predictable story and weak animation. It's a dull journey and what few sparks it has, mainly from vista or music, can't save it from mediocrity.Story is very basic, cue in your typical hero-in-training, alliance with other race, some comedy reliefs and potential romantic angle, then you'll have the 101 good versus evil plot. It's a dreary development with just about everything one would expect not to see again in fantasy genre. Granted, this sort of plot has been used many times and it can be to great effect, but Dragon Nest merely stacks them without novelty and hope for the best.Animation isn't its strong suit, the visual looks pedestrian as though it's from last gen video games. Sometimes the audio sounds out of place as the mixing stutters on some parts, dubbing is the usual sloppy mess, especially for supporting chars. There's a bit inconsistency with details as well, shadows or texture don't sync well into the scenes. Frankly, these kinds of problems shouldn't happen on feature length animation of today's technology.If there are some redeeming parts, they are the decent soundtracks and design for the world. They manages to draw that fresh fantasy vibe, although much too briefly before the average animation kicks in again. Watching Dragon Nest offers the same level of excitement as grinding in online game, low at best.

Drawing heavily from World of Warcraft cinematics and music sequences, along with the standard premise of Lord of Rings, this movie falls flat on it's face as a cheesy knockoff. The voice acting was horrible, as if the actors couldn't read the script, pausing at weird times and emphasizing parts of sentences a native speaker wouldn't. Of course the script it self was so unoriginal I was tempted to turn it off the moment I heard the intro.The characters movements are so comical you'd laugh when they are trotting about with this ominous music in the background.Without spoiling, the most absurd part of the movie comes at the end when seasoned and powerful warriors just lay down panting for hours on end just to give the spotlight to the child hero. The movie makers don't understand subtlety at all.Speaking of which, the entire movie sounds like an 80s comic where the narrator or someone explains everything in every moment. Overall This is a horrible waste of time. Try harder China.

Such a mind-blowing movie... actually originated from the game I am addicted to and believe me, I've just seen the movie (tomorrow is my semester exam) and I am seeing it again!!! Direction and technical aspects are simply amazing. The director has skyjacked the anxiety and excitement of the plot to the skies... A MUST WATCH MOVIE for all animation movie lovers out there.. I bet you can't rupture its warmth feel after a single watch. Love this movie sooo much... not just bragging about it but there are few aspects that emotionally hunts you deep down your heart.... mainly the...*spoiler alert* Will be waiting for its sequel... if at all it comes (I soooo want one).
