Quick Peek

A boy named Eragon finds a polished blue stone in the forest. At first, he thinks it's a lucky discovery, something that will bring meat to his poor family for the winter. Instead, it brings a dragon hatchling, and Eragon is soon thrust into a world of magic and power through which he and the dragon must navigate.

I love this movie center, i loved the book...but as a movie just wretched. The books covered about 900 pages and they only used maybe names and the fact a dragon was in there. But as a movie it was just horrible- I literally stood up..and was like "its OVER- what the he** what THAT!" besides the brother wears modern day blue jeans, and there is almost a Brokeback Mountain scene with brothers wrestling tOO MUCH...it was juts shameful as it COULD HAVE BEEN SO GOOD.... it was a waste of money mine and the studios.... the books were a taste of the Hobbit and we hoped this movie had some elements of that- NO- my son was bitterly disappointed to as it was just stupid. THANKFULLY they sell drinks there...you'll need them!!! Go on tuesday- 2 for 1 and you'll need them.

Pros: nice movie center

Cons: really crowded with cell phon eusers

If you are a fan of the book and have read both books then do not bother with this movie. While the acting is good and the visual effects are good the movie is very bad. There is no way that anyone involved with this movie read even a page of the book (much less Eldest). Not only did they not read the book but every plot line that matters in Eldest is destroyed by this movie. Every great thing about Eragon is utterly ruined by this movie. A large group of my friends and I found it impossiable to even enjoy the visual effects of the movie simply becuase every aspect of the movie is diffrent than the book. As my friend said "they should write an apology letter, refund our money, and remake the movie at thier cost." If you have not read the book then it may be a decent movie. I have no idea how the director got the entire storyline wrong our how the author let the movie be made in the abusrd way that it was but add this movie to your list of movies that ruined a very well written book. Basically, what took the author years to write was destroyed in less than 1 1/2 hours.

Pros: None really

Cons: Not well written
