A fantasy flick of dragons and heroes in your typical magical evil vs bravely good, King Arthur twist dragon egg replaces sword in stone type of tale. Story of a young boy, living in a peon village under the power grip of an evil king, discovering a magical dragon egg in the woods. Only to discover his prophecy as the boy king to save his kingdom from the evil tyrant - with sorcery and swords, dragons and ogres, it’s all fantasy fun. It was lacking somewhere, I can’t find the words exactly where - because it was good, and entertaining. Just lacked substance. Rating: 3 stars out of 5. Viewed 12/17/06.
