Okay, well me and my friends when to Dragon Wars today for the 5:35 showing, and I must say I have never laughed my ass off more in my life.

Plot Summary:

Now, the movie wasn't meant to be a comedy, but the sheer corniness of it was enough to make you spend the whole hour and a half laughing. The movie starts off with this reporter who works for a company called CGNN (same logo as CNN, but with a G) and is investigating a giant trail of destruction left by some "mysterious beast."
So he goes back to his office and has a flashback of himself as a kid hearing a story (weird) about an ancient prophecy that every 500 years... some girl is born... or something... IDK I wasn't really paying attention, also it was kind of confusing. Anyway, the movie (after about 20 or so minutes of this flashback story) finally cuts to present day again, where this guy realizes that this prophecy is coming true, and he has to go find this girl to offer to the good dragon before the bad one destroys the world.
Basically then the military randomly figures out that this whole thing is going on, with no explanation whatsoever, and go into this city to stop the bad dragon from getting this girl. So they go through this big ordeal of getting the girl to safety, and whatnot, until finally this evil guy (whose actual plot significance I have yet to figure out) gets her, and the guy and takes them to this midieval place that looks almost exactly like a tower from Lord of the Rings (seriously it's almost identical), and tries to offer her to the bad dragon, but then some miraculous miracle (that didn't make any sense) happens and they're saved, then finally the girl offers herself to the good dragon... and that's the end.

Individual Ratings:

Acting- 2 out of 5
Effects- 4 out of 5
Story- 1 out of 5
Humor- 5 out of 5 (just for the cornyness)

Overall- 2 out of 5

Conclusion:

Don't see this movie unless you and your friends have a little cash burning a hole in your pockets, and want to laugh your asses off.

----------------------------------

Please don't yell at me if you thought it was an awesome movie or something, because this is my opinion, and you don't have to agree with me if you don't want.

I'd probably like this movie. I never really paid attention to storylines. The only thing I like in a movie is graphics, action, and maybe some humor.

It looked horrible judging by the previews anyway.

I don't know half of you half as well as I should like, and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve.
