Review of Dragon Age: Dawn of the Seeker (2012) by Jericho G — 13 Jun 2012

This movie was a chore to watch. It seems like they developed an outline of the characters and story, but didn't feel the need to fill in any details at all. Not one character is likeable, and it's not even a movie you can watch just for the action sequences.

Any time a conversation could have developed character they hurried to another terrible action sequence instead. When there is a battle, the villains don't always move, more often then not they just wait to be killed by the hero.

Oddly, the villains look and sound like villains in this film, as opposed to the game where the antagonists range from morally ambiguous to righteous, but opposed to you or your group. Many times during the film, people and objects will appear in one shot, disappear a moment later, then reappear again.

Dawn of the Seeker really could have used more time spent on removing continuity errors and, the writers from Dragon Age 1 & 2 should have been used to inject some comedy and depth of character.
