Simply A Masterpiece
Excellent, Without a doubt!!
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.
It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
I have read other reviews, and understood where everyone is coming from. Although, I do disagree with the "worst movie I have ever seen" reviews... If you can get past the part when the Gryphon first "breaks out of its' shell", then the movie isn't half bad. Personally, I didn't like the Sorcerer's two female counterparts either. They reminded me of soft-core porn stars (acting quality as well), rather than witches. So yes, the CG animation takes the quality of a Sy-Fy channel film. And yes, there are a lot of references recognized that were taken from others' works as well. The story is predictable, the characters accents are shoddy, but the acting isn't as hoax-e as your usual "bad movie". So overall, I wouldn't call it absolutely terrible and a waste of time... just a typical b-movie fantasy. 5/10 because it's not intolerable, but I wouldn't watch it a second time, nor pay to add it to my film collection.
Listen to my advice and don't spend any time with this one ! You've been warned ! I feel pity for the great places shown in this movie which otherwise paint the wonderful scene of Transilvanian land, like the Castle of Corvinesti in Hunedoara. But sadly, I feel no pity for the movie, directors and crew, they took the money and produced nothing out of it .... And the 3D animation of the gryphon, that is a real joke ! Sorry, a kid could have made it better with a pencil ! The dialogues are childish and with nothing to be added from actors, they make no more than a cheap story told by a bored grandmother ! I can't understand why the foreigners were put to speak in romanian when the cast is 90% romanians which speak English ! Weird .
Well, it has been a while ago, since i've seen a movie put together so awful. This is beyond any way to produce a movie. I don't like to bash movies, but this is a sad happening.For instance, the Gryphon flies with its wing through buildings. People fall dead before even being touched. I guess the budget has been around the $1000,- to produce this movie.Its hard to continue looking, but the very first 10 minutes are funny. When seeing the Gryphon enter the screen, i hoped it was only for the intro. But nothing was more real. The surrealistic Gryphon remained as "less-realistic" as in the openings shot of the movie.Concluding : This is a waste of time and money.
I am surprised that I haven't heard about any lawsuit yet against the filmmakers, I mean they even stole the Path of the Death from Lord of the Rings! I am sure this one ends up in my top 250 of worst movies, maybe even at number one. O gosh, I hardly have words to explain how bad this is.Bad acting, bad script : I have seen bad movies, for sure, but this one is so bad that beside my laughs about stupidities and terrible visual effects I felt eternal regret for even buying the movie on DVD.... result, I dumped it in the garbage can, glad to have never ever watch this again.I really won't recommend it to anyone at all. I would feel guilty forever, afraid of loosing my best movie pals.
