    happened to have the same name as the book.

    by macpon

    Yeah so this movie was a alright if u didnt read the book. but so many things were left out did anyone notice there was absolutly no mention of the dwarfs. and the urgals were pretty much a bunch of body builders. not the 8 foot monsters they were sopossed to be. They didnt even have horns. the elf didnt have pointed ears. which someone could mistake as a human and the girl that he blessed wasnt mentions which is starting to become a major charicter in the later books so they really cant explain her. the razac never died, so that might be a little agaisnt the book. and the fight with durza was wrong as well. the only thing right was they cut his back and durza died. wtf was he riding on anyway. Did the producers or even anyone working on the movie read the book? im guessing not. or this might be just some random movie and it so happened that they had a dragon and a boy named eragon.

    When the Preview is better than the Movie!

    The movie was disappointing after the preview promised wonderment and finally when it opened? wow! What a let down. The effects were not even that great. My kids liked it and they were happy, so, I am happy. I don't go to the theaters much and wait for things to come on DVD, but after I saw the preview.... couldn't wait to spend lots of money to bring the whole family, but should have waited. I am going to have to be careful of the big previews because they don't always deliver. Should have known! I guess overall it cost me a lot of money for a cute movie. Even Charlotte's Web was better... and I knew the ending.

    Not like the book, but well made...

    by rcd22

    If you expect the movie to represent the book well, you will be disappointed; they had to cut most of the subplots out. However, Saphira is adorable and intriguing and Eragon and Roran are not too bad themselves. That aside, it is still exciting and fun to watch and for people who haven't read the book it is probably even more so. This is a children's movie, so it's not "Lord of the Rings" action and battling, but the fight scenes are pretty neat. I definitely think most children would enjoy it.
