good try, but not quite there. this is a film that came too soon, the special effects werent quite ready to handle an emotive dragon yet. also, if they had waited a few more years they could have capitalized on the whole fantasy genre that would soon come into fashion around the lord of the rings movies. the story follows dennis quaid, a dragon hunter, as he tries to kill the last dragon. the dragon, which is voiced by none other than sean connery himself, doesnt look as good as it should. some of the scenes look ok, but most of them are pretty obvious that the cg wasnt quite up to the quality they needed to make this work. also, for having a cg dragon as your main character, they do some pretty obvious tricks to keep him off screen. hmm, maybe they realized that they couldnt pull it off too, huh?
