Great Animation, Lovely Story January 12, 2010 Bast Great story about how you sometimes choose your own family for various reasons. The animation was nifty. I really enjoyed it and recommended it to all my friends.
Blu-ray reference quality... December 30, 2009 Crispin Garcia I will not add another story review to this title since it has been explained many times over. It is basically a children's story with just enough entertainment value to help an adult sit through the movie with their kids. I purchased this Blu-ray after watching a rental copy and being impressed with the animation quality, it is a true reference BD with outstanding picture and sound quality, something that will showcase your new HDTV if needed.
Great Graphics - Okay Story December 27, 2009 John F. Rooney In "Dragon Hunters" (2009) little Zoe, spunky and perky, enlists the aid of three weird characters in order to hunt down the dragons. Her Uncle Arnold will pay gold to have the beasts eliminated.
The film has great graphics, imaginative, with big hunks of firmament floating around in space. There doesn't seem to be one overall sold piece of ground. There are castles on mountains in the air.
Zoe turns out to be a heroic little girl. It becomes four characters on a quest, on a journey with a mission, a frequent theme in animated movies. This is not, however, in the same league with a lot of the computer animated stuff out there because its storyline is too simplistic, not highly original or inspired, and the characters are too one-dimensional. They seem to have no history behind them.
Forest Whitaker's voice is that of cloddish Lian-Chu, but his voice is not that distinctive nor quirky enough, not the easily recognizable voice of some other personalities. Lian-Chu's buddy-in-arms is Gwizdo, the operator and scam artist. Hector is the blue rabbit, but no great thought or creative energy went into the making of these cardboard characters.
The movie has some comic elements but not enough.
The big hulk central character and his three little friends are often jumping from one clump of floating earth to another, but for little purpose.
The big guy, Lian-Chu, knits garments which seems foolish to his buddy, but it turns out that the knitting needles are potent weapons against dragons who seem to be dull, ineffective, unawe-inspiring monsters.
It's probably a good movie for kiddies five and above.
Great December 21, 2009 Terry L. Price Jr. (KY USA) This was a very enjoyable movie, it takes a few minutes to get over the way their world is(it's kind of like Mario Galaxy) but after that I loved it. Movie was well made quality wise and the story was enjoyable.
Dragon Hunters worth a look December 16, 2009 A. Buckner (Central Indiana) Dragon Hunters seemed to spend very little time at the theaters. I bought this DVD because it sounded interesting. I was very pleased with the movie. This is an animated movie and the creators were very imaginative. If you like seeing worlds that are nothing like what you have ever seen before this is a good one. The characters were well done and I found myself actually caring about what was going to happen next. I have had the movie now for 2 weeks and have probably seen it 6 or 7 times. I highly recommend this one.
