Viewing Notes

Open Space Day! for Junesploitation means Dragon Day to me… seriously, there should’ve been a Dragon Day. So the sequel to the decent Dragonheart w/the all-star cast… is everything but. The lead is Christopher Masterson and the rest are largely bit players and unknowns. Well maybe Robbie Benson is a known name? Even went a lower budget FX house leaving Industrial Light and Magic from the first film. It’s like, “yay let’s make a sequel on 1/10th the budget!”

I do give it a half point bump for Rona Figueroa being the kick ass Asian princess warrior w/a few good action beats. Wish she was the lead and it was all her story.
