Thoughts: Two brothers lost their parents to an orc attack and the eldest devotes his life to slaying orcs and protecting his brother.
Years later a dragon is on the prowl and the two battle through orc-infested lands to reach a castle where a Dragon Hunter can be trained - a prophecy suggesting there is one in their bloodline.
They form a band and go to battle. It's quite difficult to find a redeeming feature.
The scenes all look quite neutral and the characters lack depth. The actors deliver their words without any feeling and just come across as wooden. The camera work is quite flawed and the effects ponderous.
The fight scenes lack realism, and the dragon looks false. This is especially bad when one character holds its mouth open. It's just disappointing in every department.
