Dragon Wars (2007) 6/10

Starring : Jason Behr, Amanda Brooks, Craig Robinson, Elizabeth Pena, Robert Forster
Director : Hyung-rae Shim
Running Time : 89 mins

An ancient prophesy claims that a woman is born every 500 years with the power to turn serpents into dragons, and a young boy learns of this story from an old man in an antique store. Years later, he meets the fabled bearer of the dragon's mark and it becomes his duty to protect her from the evil that surrounds this power, and to stop her from accidentally turning evil serpents into dragons that could terrorise the world!

This is such a kids movie it was hard to take it seriously. The main villain looked like Bill Murray on steroids, and some of the coincidences were a little hard to swallow. Still, if you don't mind substandard special effects, some misplaced humour and an extremely weak plot with characters doing the most unrealistic things then you might find something in this to entertain you.
