Eragon (2006)
Time troubles
I would say that Eragon is a nice movie, not too bad, not very good. But for its fantasy genre and great production, one awaits more than can be seen here. It may be caused by the superb Lord of the Rings Trilogy, because every fantasy movie is compared with it and no doubt that Eragon is no match to it. The biggest minus of this movie is that it is too short, the story is great and could have been told interestingly, but instead of it the movie runs out of every opportunity to tell something, because of the lack of time and the final "lookback" of the hero is a little bit funny, because he remembers something that happened 30 minutes ago in the movie (i talk about the death of Brom). All in all there are many problems with seeing the time-line in this movie - the heroes never rest and whole story is acted in few days. I don't know, maybe the authors just wanted to have some money from the cry for fantasy films.

I don't know how could someone dislike a movie like this one. Most important to this movie is not story, but picture and emotions. I was really astonished by this movie and I still think its one of the best Czech movies and its picture is one of the best of all films. In my opinion the best part was The Water Spirit. Its ending with desperate man sitting in the mud and crying over his loss of wife and child is simply breathtaking. These emotions are so deep that everyone must feel it with the Spirit. Also the picture of girl falling from the bridge is fantastic. I think this movie is definitely worth seeing for the feelings inside..
