Advantages: makes you tired Disadvantages: bad graphics,boring,slow,makes you want to smash it up
dragon wars is the worst film i have ever seen! its all about an old man who asks this boy to find a girl who is enchanted or something and has mystical powers,she is the girl who will bring a magical dragon from heaven to fight the evil dragon.at the end the girl dies but it is a very poor ending and the film tried to be a sob story,but frankly,its a load of cheap ,low budget rubbish.
there are some scenes that dont make sense,for example when the guy gets shot head on and he just gets up and walks away,and when the guy unleashed a power and it burned everything around him ,but his ropes were still tied up,then he runs to the girl.
it really is the most terrible movie ive ever seen,would never watch it again. ...

Bridge To Terabithia
This weekend while visiting a friend we decided to have a relaxed afternoon and stick on a film and have a glass of wine. As her ten year old son was with us we decided to watch the children?s movie Bridge to Terabithia. I have heard of the film before but didn?t really know much about it. I didn?t know who was in it, what it was about or who made the film which sometimes I think it is a good idea not knowing anything about it. I quite like these children fantasy films like The Narnia films so I thought this couldn?t be too bad. What I like about children?s DVD?s is that they are presented really nicely and this DVD was no exception. It had an outer cardboard cover and the front cover was colourful and looked very magical, which would help attracting kids to buy it (or rather their parents). Another aspect ...
Advantages: Fights!! Disadvantages: Bad acting, bad plot
"You can call it the art of fighting without fighting."
-- Lee (Bruce Lee)
When you watch Enter the Dragon these days, it becomes pretty obvious, almost immediately, where films like Mortal Kombat and Conan the Destroyer got their inspiration from.
This, the first kung film to be produced by a major Hollywood studio, and the last completed Bruce Lee film before his death "by misadventure", is credited with popularizing the martial art in America and establishing Lee as a cultural icon.
And the reason that the film is considered such a quintessential film of the 1970s is not because of the plot or acting (both are appalling, to say the least) but because of the action. The fight choreography in Enter the Dragon is so good that we needn't bother dwelling on what's bad here.
So ignore the paper-thin, James Bond-type plot ...
Two factions at war the Republic and the Confederation Of Scientific Technology employ assassins. One such killer penetrates the enemy but after a bloodbath he decides to resign... Except resigning is not an option...
