Sahara (2017)
Felt generic and underwhelming
It's about a snake who decides to leave his home, falls in love with a snake from an oasis, is forced to rescue her with her stoner brother, and defeat the incredibly generic villain you probably can't appreciate.
What did it get right? It looks pretty good, and the humor is adult-friendly. (Yeah, I'm the kinda guy that laughs at a snake snort sand because he's in withdrawal)
What did it get wrong? Pretty much everything else in the movie. The characters aren't memorable in the slightest, as they have no back stories or motive, and most of them are simply abandoned after "they had nothing else to offer". Similarly, I'd like to know the main characters better, as the only back story we ever got was from a secondary/support character and the only thing explained were that his parents were killed and he escaped. I'd also like to better know how the other snakes were captured, but no, we just get an ugly "love interest" and a salty character that gets skinned later on. The climax battle scene was dramatic and I had no idea what was happening other than a creepy old dude is able to climb really well, then dies, only to reappear solely for the purpose of a semi-humorous reintroduction of Pitt. (EDIT: I watched it again, and the other snake didn't get skinned, I just missed their reappearance at the end of the movie)
Writing is 1/5
Graphics is 5/5
Humor is 3/5 (i'm being generous, that was a pretty funny scene)
Dragon Pilot: Hisone and Masotan (2018)
A great watch
I've watched the show a good few times, and me being somebody who loves dragons and fighter aircraft, I can say I loved the show. The story, while not what I initially expected, wasn't bad by any means, but as somebody on the internet said at some point, "It looks like it exists solely to fulfill somebody's dragon vore fetish fantasy." Which I agree with in some capacity, but the characters are fun, unique, and have very obvious flaws that make their eccentricities all the more great.
My only regret is knowing this probably isn't popular enough to receive a new season, because twelve episodes just didn't feel enough. Overall though, I recommend at least trying it, because I was surprised when I first watched it as well.
The Car: Road to Revenge (2019)
Not a movie to take seriously
If it weren't for the fact this movie was pretty funny, and just stupid in too many right ways, I'd give this a 1/10.
Rogue Warfare (2019)
Barely worth finishing
I'll just say this, the acting isn't very believable, unit coordination in the movie was terrible, should have just stuck with a single special forces unit, and the "supreme leader" guy is a corny philosopher on war, and won't stop rambling about how "his idea will never be defeated" as an entire village garrison is literally wiped out. It tries to be this powerful force against a powerful force, and fails terribly like every low budget movie without an original plot.
Also, the dick of the group is a black SAS dude who didn't appear to care in the slightest when one of the members in the group dies. There's one thing that makes a special forces unit so effective, and that's their willingness and ability to help each other like brothers to the end.
Dragonheart: Vengeance (2020)
Not good, not terrible, could probably be better
(just a warning, this whole post is going to be full of spoilers start to finish)
I'm just going to start off, why did they think it was a good idea to make Siveth some peace loving vegan hippy? And related, it was mentioned she ate plant seeds people gave to her to help them, yet at the end, it's mentioned they were just stored somewhere, which fixed the famine. So I gotta ask, what exactly did she eat, if not any meat or seeds? Better yet, how is she a vegan at all? I don't remember dragons being omnivores, but I guess I'm just pointing out petty details at this point.
Generally, I found the story rather meh in most regards, but I guess introducing a conspiracy where the king started wars and ravaged farmers to increase support is rather interesting. Especially given said conspiracies are relevant in today's day and age in America. Anyway, I found the "barbarians killed my parents, I want revenge" thing cliche in a lot of regards. Despite this, the movie somehow managed to keep itself from being too boring, and it introduced some new lore that reminds me of metallic dragons from D&D, AKA, Siveth's ability to transform into other animals.
Maybe my humor is just pretty bad, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't find some parts kind of funny, though the part where Lukas was getting dating advice from Siveth was pretty cringe. Overall, I can say he was far from the status of Gary Stu (the male equivalent to a Mary Sue), but there are some plot holes I noticed. It's never explained how Darius or "The Wolf" ever survived, especially given that the latter completely lost an arm and fell into a river/stream. Darius was also left in a pretty poor condition, but I guess it's not impossible for him to survive. Lastly, the fairy tale ending just left me feeling like I'd watched a children's movie.
All n' all, I give it a 5/10, was expecting more, but got a pretty meh story. I still feel it was better than what I thought Battle for the Heartfire was, which was boring, and chalk full of feminist agendas. It also strayed from the established canon, because for some reason we needed half dragon people.
