Fire & Ice - Dragon Chronicles

This is one cool dragon movie! The fire dragon is like Godzilla with wings. Great effects as it swoops down and breathes fire on the villagers.Amy Acker is cast as Princess Luisa. She recruits the son of a legendary knight to do battle with this mighty beast. Amy does battle with tree people. She uses some of her fighting skills she learned as Fred Burkle in the Angel series. The weapons collection pales in comparison to the vast weaponry Angel had at his disposal.The smile and charm of Amy Acker always captivates me !! So she had me with her first scenes in the movie. She does get a lot of screen time in this film so its all good!! The effects are top notch, the scenery is beautiful and the cast is great. Besides who does not like a good old fashioned fire dragon movie?

Great medieval fantasy movie— lots of dragon action.

I am partial to dragons, that's what drew me to this movie (two dragons for the price of one). How can you hate a movie with hot and cold running dragons? True, it's not the best example of a fantasy flick featuring dragons. The heroine (Amy Acker as Princess Luisa) is a tad on the sappy side of annoying. Her eventual love interest (Tom Wisdom as Gabriel) is a standard hero type that everyone must rely on. Her father the `good' king is played by Arnold Vosloo, half the time he looks bewildered, as though he was asking why am I in this movie, as opposed to, "what's my next line?" Of the lot, only John Rhys-Davies looks as though he's having any fun ("Money! Oh, we like money! I remember what it looks like!"). The rest of the cast are unknown foreign actors learned in the realm of melodrama (the way in which they over-emote you'd think they thought they were doing Shakespeare!). At any rate, the plot is simple and straight forward. The kingdom of Carpia is besieged by a dragon that's on fire as it spouts fire. Their neighbors are not in the least bit worried by this evil creature because they have a big round doodad on their roof that keeps this dragon at bay. There's plenty of skullduggery and betrayal. The good queen scowl's a lot and the good king listens to his (so obviously EVIL) advisor entirely too much, you'd think he didn't have a brain of his own worth making decisions without the input of this slimy sycophant. Naturally, they need a dragon slayer but end up with another dragon instead. I guess no one bothered to consider that using one dragon to kill another dragon still leaves you with a dragon to deal with. The ice dragon certainly couldn't be called upon to commit suicide after playing mercenary for them. Time to pay the piper!Yes, it's a bit on the dopey side but I enjoyed it nonetheless.

A Fire Dragon threatens the kingdom ruled by a decent but betrayed king (Arnold Vosloo) . The kingdom's princess (Amy Aker), takes the initiative and finds a Dragon Slayer (Tom Wisdom) and his mentor (John Rhys Davies) to help the kingdom. They waken an Ice Dragon in the process. The dragon effects were well done. The sets and locations were well done. The story idea was an interesting one with a bit of a different spin on dragons. Fire & Ice might have been excellent with its Dragons, Decieved King, Damsel and Dragon Slayers all well cast. All of the actors are excellent, usually. I was very impressed with Tom Wisdom (300) in his recent work on 'Dominion' and Arnold Vosloo (The Mummy) usually turns in a strong performance and John Rhys Davies (LOTR, Raiders) is always great and Amy Acker did good work on 'Angel' and other TV shows, but they seemed not to have brought their "A" game to this film. It didn't help their work that the story was not well served by the weak script. It's pleasant enough if you'd like a mindless Sci fi/fantasy turn, but it isn't anyone's best work. Movie is safe for any viewers who can handle the violence inherent to this kind of story.

Fun sword & sorcery genre film! Very unique design for the dragons they looked like flying sting rays with heads! People may question me giving this movie a 5 star rating but I judge a movie by what it gives you for its budget & this one delivers! If you are a fan of sword & sorcery films you might want to add this one to your collection if you find it for a good price.

Love this movie, have watched it several times.

I enjoyed this dragon movie. I purchased this item as this is a fantasy type of movie I enjoy, otherwise I would not purchase it. If you like fantasy you will enjoy this movie

non è un film disastroso, ma neanche un gran film . mi aspettavo meglio. nel complesso voto basso . avrebbero dovuto investire un po’ sulla scenografia e sugli effetti speciali

Very basic plot with poor acting. Would not reccomend buying.

Der Film ist gar nicht so schlecht wie hier alle schreiben =D Die Drachen sehen etwas Komisch aus (Fliegender Rochen) aber ansonsten ist er ganz OK =D Würde ihn wieder Kaufen.

received the product very quickly through the post and are very happy with it and would like to send my thanks
