Thoughts: A peaceful Kingdom is suddenly visited by a fire dragon and the son of a famous dragon slayer steps forward.
The plot is fairly strong although you can generally see where it's going. The actors do well, no doubt helped by the experienced Rhys-Davies.
But sadly they aren't given much to work with. If only they could have taken some of the dragon budget and put it into the script! Because those dragons are excellent, some of the best I've seen.
Sadly, when the two dragons come together, it's quite poor and a real let down. There's nothing wrong with the story part of this climax, just the delivery.
This could be a lot better. It needs a much tighter script and the dragon fight needs some bite. It goes up on some points then crashing down on others, leaving it to be average.
