for a film with potentially more scope and grandeur than even lord of the ring and eragon fall entirely flat due to lack luster act and a terrible script and a total lack of pace . only rachel weisz voice act for the dragon saphira manages to give the movie it only good performance while jeremy iron sincere performance be let down by the hammyness of it lackluster script . the special effect be fine and the cinematography be great and the pace be way off and the movie be way too short for it own good . i have not read the book that give life to this film but i hope it be much good than this because the movie be a letdown .
