| Eragon
|
Based on the first book of Christopher Paolini's trilogy... In the land of Alagaesia the once mighty reign of the dragon riders is now taken over by Galbatorix a dragon rider who turned against his own... and is now the only dragon rider remaining... or so he thinks... A group of rebels called the Varden and their allies have long carried with them the egg of the dragon Saphira and to make sure it doesn't get into the hands of Galbatorix and his men... Arya one of the rebels sends it away and the egg finds itself in the hands of a teenage farmboy, Eragon... Not long after the egg hatces... Eragon then hears of the lost days of the dragon riders through an old man, Brom, and is intrigued... the dragon Saphira grows at a phenomenal rate and soon turns into a fully grown dragon... Saphira and Eragon are bonded and can read each other' thoughts... he is her dragon rider... Galbatorix sends his men to kill Eragon but he manages to escape with the help of Brom who turns out to be a dragon rider himself... Eragon learns quickly of his destiny and what he needs to do... They rescue Arya from the clutches of Durza, an evil wizard possessed by evil spirits who works for Galbatorix and they meet Murtagh who gives them a helping hand as well... When they reach the Varden they find themselves having to face Durza and Galbatorix's army...
Ok I know what you are thinking... oh no not another Harry Potter/LOTR movie... but I have to say that I think even though some parts of the movie were a little cliched and that the magical language in Eragon isn't as good as LOTR or HP but the movie was pretty well done... and is in fact quite good... I enjoyed it...Labels: movie |
