ALthought I liked the books better then the movie, I would like all in the big screen

Apparently, the movie was meant to be disappointing for the people who have read the book before watching it, but I haven't read the book so I wouldn't know...
Would have been better if the didn't cut so much stuff from the book. But was still good.
Lol the dialogue is so funny. Oh, wait, this isn't a comedy?? Oops!
But really, the script is atrocious.
A good teenage movie.
The characters are well developed, the storyline is good and tha animations are handled well. It is all set up for the sequel.
Worth a watch.
Given that the story is based on a novel written by a sixteen year old at the time, the shades of familiarity stem from something on a grander scale. The cast is quite spectacular, though I'm a bit surprised that Jeremy Irons is in the movie. Some of you would have known h...( read more)
one of my favorite movies.liked the special effects and the story line is great.
Absolute crap! The WORST adaption from a book I have EVER EVER seen! They kill, murder and slay the books till there ain't nothing left. This director the whole company don't know what the fuck they're doing! The dragon flying sequences were breathtaking tho. But the casting is ...( read more)
the fact that jeremy irons was there is a beautiful thing.. whats got into me? i want to watch a dragon film =D..after watching it want ot write something about mythical dragons and warriors.
it is one of these wierd films were if you like action and can put up with some really stupid moment you might like to see
and normally it helps if ya like fantasy
also if you like one of the actreses in the film always makes it slightly more enjoyable LOL
very bad compared to the book Saphira looks like a bird but it is a pretty good movie
The book was awesome but I had to leave during the movie because it sucked so bad
It's OK. It doesn't match the brilliant (and huge) novel which it was based on, but Eragon is still fairly good.
Though based on an overrated book and with a run-time that was far shorter than it should have been, how can you not like massive medieval battles, scorcery and CG dragons? The acting was not superb, but it wasn't terrible. Dialogue was so-so. I have not read the books this film ...( read more)
Did not do the book or the author of the book Justice. It needs help but watchable.
If there was originality in the book, it seems to have been lost here. If, for film, they needed to distill down to the major plot-points of the book, it essentially was "I am a farmboy who rides dragons. They are quite rare, you know. Oh, whats that, the realm needs saving?" If ...( read more)
I was expecting this to be terrible, but it was worse than I could've imagined. The characters and plot are empty and adhere to a generic formula for are fantasy series. Everything's been done before, and better.
This movie is unfortunately too obviously influenced by the release of the Lord Of the Rings trilogy. And by a story that could have been ten times better if handled properly. The end REALLY sucks, because there will be no sequel.
It sucked! Sucked, sucked, sucked! Terrible compared to the book! It skipped entire chapters! I was like what the hell is going on here??
