    Midly entertaining, but I felt like I had seen this movie before, oh ya I did, and it was better....


    STAR WARS people! Its STAR WARS. Its the exact same story !

    Even a freind of mine who enjoyed both books says when reading them that the books followed A New Hope and The Empire Strikes Back almost perfectly.

    Why was this made?

    As a film independant from the books it was entertaining. The story was barely recognisable from the books with characters, scenes and whole events changed to try to keep it a fast tempo fantasy film. However, I did feel that the plot was rather rushed. As a film it was better than the Harry Potter films but that can barely be considered a compliment. When watching this movie, if you have read the book, it is best to forget everything you know (and enjoy) about the story and take this film at face value.

    Well, the book was pretty much a less descriptive almost copy of Lord of the Rings written by a teen so it wasn't that great. It was a'right but it wasn't anything special. The movie wasn't executed well and it seemed they rushed to release the movie.

    One star for baby Saphira.

    One star for Jeremy Irons.

    I had never heard of the book, but saw the movie. I like fantasy movies and thought that this film was great!

    total disappointment !!!!!
    How come? Ed Speelers act was as bad as ever , new guy for big movie , total stupid !!!
    Ed is like a really modern teen not a traditional teen , i'm ok with Rachel Weisz , Djimon Hounsou & Sienna G . Joss Stone's appearance didn't help (more to destruct than helping)
    They really didn't know how to put good cast

    I understand how it can be disappointing to read a good book and then watch a movie based on the book that just dosen't measure up. I have had this same experience many times. Just have to remind your self that it's another persons artistic view of the story and not the arthors...therefore it is bound to be a bit different. I, myself, did not know of the books before I saw Eragon. I really enjoyed the movie so I'll be looking for the books now.

    Keep Holding On
    avril lavigne (OST)

    You're not alone
    Together we stand
    I'll be by your side, you know

    I'll take your hand
    When it gets cold
    And it feels like the end
    There's no place to go
    You know I won't give in
    No I won't give in

    Keep holding on
    'Cause you know we'll make it

    through, we'll make it through
    Just stay strong
    'Cause you know I'm here for

    you, I'm here for you
    There's nothing you could say
    Nothing you could do
    There's no other way when it

    comes to the truth
    So keep holding on
    'Cause you know we'll make it

    through, we'll make it through

    So far away
    I wish you were here
    Before it's too late, this

    could all disappear
    Before the doors close
    And it comes to an end
    With you by my side I will

    fight and defend
    I'll fight and defend
    Yeah, yeah

    Hear me when I say, when I

    say I believe
    Nothing's gonna change,

    nothing's gonna change destiny
    Whatever's meant to be will

    work out perfectly
    Yeah, yeah, yeah, y

    I LOVE the book. The movie wasn't anything like it, though. The movie is more like some home-made video. It was okay, though. I love Sienna Guillory! She's my fave actress! Ed Spellers is okay... I hope they make a better movie of 'Eldest'.

    I almost got mad when I first saw Eragon. The book is so, sooooo wonderful, such a masterpiece, but the movie... they've just ruin it. they didn't follow the story line at all, and a lot of IMPORTANT scenes were left out. Not fair! I wanted to see something much more than this... something like LOTR. But... T_T NOT FAIR! I WANT A BETTER MOVIE!!!! (can't wait for book 3)
