The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
The traditional animation attempting to mesh with the very bad CGI is simply terrible to watch. It honestly looks like 80s-90s direct to TV... AT BEST...
This review is coming from some who has never read the book but watched the movie. But I can see why some fans are disappointed. I guess this movie is for people who have never read the books.From my perspective it is a decent movie for people who have not read the book but are still interested in Dragons, Goblins e.t.c The animation and voice actors were good. Especially since Micheal Roseabuam was in it. I am disappointed though that there won't be a sequel to this movie since there was more about to come and having a unsatisfying ending. But I wouldn't mind if Funimation or Bang Zoom make an anime of this series which might tell the full story. Overall its not a bad movie.
In my youth I was shocked that such obvious defilement of Tolkien's work was considered legal at all. Two decades later watching this animated movie was enjoyed nonetheless.The movie is based on books by: Margaret Weis; Tracy Hickman. Dragons of Autumn Twilight is one title of 21 or so.3 spontaneous good aspects overlooked or underestimated by other reviewers:* Very close & authentic to the books and comics, henceforth as worthy of mentioning it, as modern Game of Thrones TV show, to give an example! * Made to be watched by adults and teenagers, instead of being outright immature and child-focused.* Characters, Factions, and Krynn the background world are displayed and explained by showing and listening to, and quite well so!It may help to know the Dungeons & Dragons Player Handbook aka Manual, when it comes to understanding my prose herein. 5th edition is up to date on date of writing this!The Dragonborn or Dragonmen-Flappies, besides fighting worse than a near-naked goblin level 1, remind so clearly of Nazi Germany! Splendid, as tons of documentations help us to understand persecution, fleeing from war, which is pretty smart, if you are just a level 1 commoner NPC, or the terror of Stuka air assaults. And it doesn't need my twist on the perspective either. The story starts with a traditional introduction, often called 'OMG, not another fantasy tavern intro!'. From there we are drawn into the story, and venture through to a quite heroic final, learning all we would find in the books about it so far!Instead of complaining about the Dark Queen in example: Know that she is so boring and cliché to cause us having sympathy with that ever-coughing, clearly evil red-robed wizard named Raistlin Majere. And indeed, in the following books, which are not in this movie, Raistlin Majere indeed DOES side with Evil, wears the black-robe (goes Satanist Egomaniac Magic-Tyrant) AND even attempts to kill the evil gods, so that he becomes the one Evil God ruling it all! Needless to say the entire Fellowship of the Ri.. ahem Heroes of the Lance troupe develops through the subsuming books which were meant to become such movies, too. But back then kickstarter did not exist, so they ran out of money, I guess.One more good aspect is the voices. Famous and professional actors spoke those characters, and worked hard to make it atmospheric and suiting the story we watch!Bonus by taste: No big-eyed but looking twelve year old kind of Japanese Anime spoils this heroic fantasy animated movie either!In quality this movie can equal stuff like 'Record of Lodoss War', the authors were just too greedy or too poor to fund the production of the necessary other parts. The name is the same as the 3rd book from the 'War of the Lance'. It is four books all named after a yearly season and Dragons in some Light. Many reviewers told you of the flaws, but not a single one of them could name a better Dragonlance movie, for this is the only one & it is not completely botched.
Bad movie that somehow got Kiefer Sutherland before he was a star back in 1980 when this movie was animated. Oh wait it says 2008. Good lord. Also I have to write 10 lines of text. OK. This movie sucks, the books are good, and since the make movies from old fantasy novels ship has sailed and Dragonlance got on the boat with this, this is all Dragonlance fans will ever have. There will never be that Lord of the Rings tier movie to capture what the novels were. All you'll ever have is a movie that would've been laughed off of the local antenna station back in the 80s for being poor quality animation that 6th grade art teachers would fail their students for.
