Dragon Wars: D-War

Pure dragons at war, acting 10/10… but it lacks in one things. LaSquerta.

Not a really great movie, but way better than people say it is People who rate this movie poorly are hard-headed dumb dumbs. I'm not a particularly big fan of action movies, and even I knew the stakes for this story were super high and the effort was vast by Korea. I was pretty dumbfoundedly captivated by the romantic aspects, astounded by the special effects, and intrigued by the entire story. In a time when all Marvel movies feature such overacting and stupid, repetitive plots, this movie stands out by far. While even Robert Downey Jr. (supporting actor by the Oscars) is an idiot onscreen as Iron Man, Chris Hemsworth ruins the Thor franchise, Robert Pattinson reenacts a brooding tween as Batman, and Heath Ledger oozes overachieving try-hard into every shot, everyone wants to complain about acting in movies like this and others that strive for wholesome adventure with lesser-known actors. Take a chill pill next time you cry about The Dark Knight or Spider-Man. Movies like this are the backbone of an action genre that maintains high budgets with no thought input. Is it truly fantastic? Not to me. But I have an unrelatable high standard for action movies.

5/10. 50/100. | Prolly would have given it a 70/100 when I was a kid. Watched it once around 8-10, with my mom & dad, and probably my sister, but idk why or how I remembered so much of this movie lol

what the Hell did I watch!?

First half of the film is just pure bullshit and completely ignorable. Second half has some battle scenes and fight scens that are really creative, but unfortunately poorly done, the CGI is clearly limited (probably by the budget). Also, the script doesn't make much sense.

For people who have medieval-vs-modern army fantasies, this is a must watch. The battles are entertaining.

If you like dragon movies this is a new one. Apparently in Korean mythos a serpent can one day become a celestial dragon. This is a history lesson and love the effects.

I saw the movie when I was a kid and I watched it now (I'm writting this review while watching the movie). I would say that the plot's main idea was quite interesting, but the problem was that everything occurs really fast in the movie. It also has some plot holes like: it was supposed to be "Dragon Wars", but the good Dragon appears around 10 or 15 minutes of a 1 1/2 hours movie and only during the final battle scene; why does the "old man" vanishes at the end? and why does he barely appears? (maybe around the half of his participation was in Ethan's flashback at the beginning); they don't mention how did Sarah realised about everything (literally, Ethan went to meet her at the hospital and she didn't know/remember anything and, in the next scene, she magically knows almost everything that's going on); was the whole movie just to get to the point where the good reptile becomes a real dragon kills the other one and leaves with the sphere? just that?; does Ethan just walks back home at the end? From my point of view, I'd say it could've been a great movie (as I said, I believe that the plot's main idea was good), but they just wasted it (I mean, they could've expanded more things and correct the plot holes) Sadly, I'd say they wasted a good idea

Good special effects and action scenes. The only redeemable. The narrative was not bad but it was very badly carried, I do not recommend it sincerely

This is so bad it's good and mix of Godzilla, Independence Day and primeval that I found it to be a guilty pleasure fun.
