Eragon

Watched this last night with hubby at Causeway Point, the reason why we chose the location was becos it was nearer to home, cheaper by a dollar, $8.50 for a weekend movie and less crowd, on top of that it had been newly-renovated so it was perfect.

The show was a tad disappointment. Attempts to stage an effect similar to LOTR were pretty lame and the lead actor whose supposed chosen from thousands cldn't really act that well. Some scenes when he tried to express his courage and anguish failed miserably, I cringed and cldn't really bear to watch. Jeremy Irons, an experienced, seasoned actor who acted as a retired Dragonrider put up a good show. Knew him from "The man in iron mask", he has always managed to convince me on his roles in the movies that he was starred in.

The scenery is breathtaking tho, at least 1 plus point for the movie and guess what, there is a sequel to it hahaha. Very typical of such movie types...
