Dragon Nest: Warriors' Dawn (2014)

best movie i've ever seen.

A Disappointing Continuation

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

This is a Middle Earth story with humans, elves, dragons, orc-gremlins, etc. No Hobbits. The film picks up about book 2 of LOTR as humans and elves must unite to fight beasts and the dragon. There is no ring, but a magical gem. Much of the dialogue and scenes came from the Peter Jackson production. Our main human emulated Legolas in many of his deeds.The animation looked great. The story was great, unfortunately it has already been done. After the kids watch this one, they should be ready for a LOTR film festival. The characters okay. A decent film if you don't expect or crave originality.

Great movie real great direction. Its really difficult to make a movie out of an anime and even more difficult to make a movie out of an anime game why the lore of-course. We all know movies like dragon ball evolution and Last Airbender. But this movie is superb its trimed neither to fast nor to slow. neither mushy or hard on eyes. It has emotion a bit of laughter and definitely no fan service unlike game.Every character is unique and you can watch it with your kid. You will love liya and lambart and their love story better than twilight. its not very famous because its an Asian movie not backed by any big media houses like pixar or Disney. but its on par even better than some .MUST WATCH!

Fairly enjoyable.The look of the movie was pretty good. Agree with other reviews here, the protagonist's face while alright, had some very ugly animation moments, but nothing too bad.As someone who's played the online game, I thought the adaptation was alright. Although naturally, taking the story that spans an MMO where story quests drag on at length with gameplay, and condensing it into a movie, definitely makes for a very summarized Narrative, with little of the flavor items other characters bring, such as detailed description of Gerrant and such. I know the character well, because I've played the game. Others might find his big climax moment entirely out of left field.It was fun seeing certain ques from the game, such as character abilities and moves utilized, as well as the standard makeup of the basic classes, (although the game itself doesn't exactly stray from traditional RPG classes such as elven archer, sorceress and cleric) so all in all, for a game based off an MMO, not bad, it was pretty enjoyable, and it handles it's story well. I'm curious to see what the sequel can bring and how it can build upon characters like Lambert, who, assuming it takes place some time after this one, would be a more experienced swordsman.

(no specific spoilers mentioned but if you want to go in completely without any comments about the storytelling then don't read, though you should definitely watch the movie if you are unsure, you wont regret it unless you have no interest at all in magic and fantasy world sword fights, at the very least it is a decent story)apparently inspired by a game called dragons nest that I know nothing about.for someone that doesn't know the lore this movie was a great watch, though the ensemble of 'heroes' was a little off 'strictly story wise, though that is understandable by it being based on the lore of a game, essentially character classes that are different from one another having prejudices about each other yet work together to achieve a common goal for the greater good.while the story might not be the most original, if you have any interest in sword fights and combat magic, great animation and a movie with possibly perfect pacing/highs and lows this is certainly worth a watch.compelling story telling for someone that is unfamiliar with the lore, only thing it suffers from is the introduction of too many (main?) characters right away, that might be because there is already an established lore for them I don't know but thankfully the narrative doesn't focus to much on previous events just that "they know of each other".as mentioned a lot of talent went into the animation, they really deserve praise for it.
