The movie came out while we were all in Albuquerque, but we didn't find the time to go see it.

I went to see it about a week after we got back from ABQ... I really liked it! Of course the dragons were the star of the show. I thought Jason did very well given the material he had to work with.

Now I'm :waiting: to add the DVD to my collection.

Hey jero ...
I finally got a hold of the DVD. Dragon Wars is only 90 minutes long. Ugh! Definitely not enough time to fully develop the plot.
And yes, the dragons were the stars. Jason did not make a very believable reporter. But, you could be right about the script being nothing to write home about.

Bottom line ... I like dragon movies, so I'll keep the DVD and probably will watch it again. Unfortunately, this was not one of Jason's best.

From what I've read, it was a blockbuster in Korea... Jason Behr is a household name there now... One country at a time...
