The dragon looks great and the ending was exciting but overall I found it a bit boring and didn't care much for it.

A suitably entertaining fantasy film from Disney, if a tad too long. 'Dragonslayer' is just about good. I like some of the locations used as well as the, admittedly dated, special effects. As for my dislikes, those would be the cast, characters and story. I had a fine time following all three, but I didn't overly care for any of them - I didn't feel attached. Peter MacNicol, who I always remember from 1997's 'Bean', is alright as Galen, if unspectacular and mostly forgettable. As are the rest of the cast in truth, I can't say their performances will stick in my mind either unfortunately. I can see how some people would enjoy this. I did, just not majorly.

It's so refreshing to see a great practical effect in a movie. And even though "Dragonslayer" is over 30 years old, its model dragon is still one of the best ever put to film. Oh sure, there are some rough spots as far as some of the effects go, but wow, the stop motion dragon still looks great! More
