Review of DragonHeart (1996) by John W — 22 Jan 2017

This was one of those movies that I grew up with that upon returning to I worried might lessen in my eyes. But to my great thanks it held up quite well in my eyes.

For a film that doesn't even hit two hours in length it contains a surprising amount of story. With our central protagonist Bowen before our eyes gong from honorable knight, to vindictive dragon slayer, to self-serving conman, to befriending his enemy Drago, and ultimately reclaiming his former self by leading a revolution against the tyrant ruling his homeland. And it all flows together pretty well, with us having a decent understanding of each of his shifts.
