While it owes much of its appeal and appearance to the Lord of the Rings trilogy, Eragon can stand on its own as an enjoyable fantasy for younger viewers. Faithfully adapted from the bestselling novel by teenage author Christopher Paolini, this boy-and-his-dragon tale offers clean, fast-paced family entertainment without compromising the darker qualities of Paolini's novel (the first in what is known as the "Inheritance" trilogy). The plot centers on 17-year-old peasant farmboy Eragon (played by appealing newcomer Ed Speleers) who discovers a mysterious blue object that turns out to be an egg that eventually hatches to reveal Saphira, a blue-scaled dragon that quickly grows to full-size. According to prophecy, Eragon is destined to be a dragon-rider like those who once protected a benevolent kingdom, thus reviving an ancient conflict against the army of King Galbatorix (John Malkovich), a former dragon rider who turned to evil, now in alliance with a! dark-magic "Shade" sorcerer named Durza (Robert Carlyle). While the movie serves up familiar fantasy elements and offers little if anything new to fans of the genre (or anyone who's read the books of Anne McCaffrey and Ursula K. Le Guin), it's visually impressive (especially the dragon scenes, with Rachel Weisz providing the telepathic "voice" of Saphira) and full of timeless wisdom, much of it delivered by Eragon's heroic mentor Brom (Jeremy Irons), himself a former dragon rider with memories of past battles and hope for Eragon's future. Add a fair warrior-maiden named Arya (Sienna Guillory) and you've got all the ingredients for a worthwhile (if not particularly original) fantasy that points directly to a sequel. Whether that's a good or a bad thing is up to individual viewers to decide. --Jeff Shannon

Customer Reviews of Eragon [Blu-ray]
Pitiful What a disappointment. This film barely skims the book. The characters are all underdeveloped. The dragon isn't even interesting. What a shame. This could have been a block buster of a film, instead, It's flat and just plain boring. The wonderful imagery of the book is completely missing.Parts of the film make no sense.Anyone who has not read the book will be totally lost.Those who have read it will be disgusted. A fifth grader could have written a better script! <
>Ed Speleers is pretty good as Eragon. He might well have given a good performance if the script hadn't been such a stinker. <
>The music, which should enhance a film, only annoys here. It is dull, lacking in subtlety and nuance, and intrudes at odd moments. It tries to be noble and heroic, but it comes off as silly and lacking in depth. It sounds like a high school music student composed it....one who was failing band! <
>Christopher Paolini can not possibly be pleased with this mess. Chris, go talk to Stephen King; he can tell you what Hollywood does to good books. <
>It's a shame this didn't land in Peter Jackson's hands. This review might have been much different if it had.

>The costumes and set design were so cheesy and the acting was pretty bad. Especially the villains who ham it up every step of the way. And the actors were all wrong for their roles. None of them looked the part. Especially the lead who looked like he should be standing outside an Abercrombie and Fitch store in the mall.

>And a lot of scenes seemed very...umm...Brokeback Dragon to me. Especially one scene with the main character and his cousin! Those were the only interesting parts. The rest had me falling asleep.

>There are supposed to be two more of these movies?? I hope they get a better director and script writer.
Error-gon
Proof positive that spending a lot of money on special effects will not produce a hit. It's boring, stupid and juvenile, mindful of such fantasy flops as Red Sonja and Beastmaster. Was this nominated for worst film of the year?
