Im giving it a 2 because it is a truly terrible film. But I have seen worse, amazingly enough.

however, the graphics are awful!! I don't know what people are on about it being amazing. I'm speaking particularly coburn-mark here. Oh. And you said film of the decade? 10/10 ? I think your letting your fantastical nerd side get the better of you there. Much of your better side...

I'm agreeing a lot with what buckramega has said. The build up to where either monster attacks the same image is being mirrored or zoomed. And what really ticks me off is that whenever an event takes place there are constant flashes, I'd assume to hide the bad graphics by making your eyes sore.

And the acting and dialogue made me cringe. It was like... No. Just no. It wasn't believable, nor was it satisfying to what you expect.

Yes yes, I know it's low budget but seriously. The line needs to be drawn somewhere, and this film crosses this line as if it was trying to grab first place in a race. If you had not payed to watch this film, that's fine. You've only lost a valuable hour or so of your life. If you payed, you've just losses money too.

This would have been good 30 years ago, but not in our time. Can I say good try? I'm not sure.

This is truly pathetic. Why make a movie from a milked game? Especially since they haven't even bothered to use real actors, oh no, they decided to make an anime film. Anime has to be the worst kind of film there is. Its bad enough they made the film, but they fact they made it in Anime shows that they can not do anything they originally planned to do. It is a truly terrible movie, even for Halo fans. If you are looking forward to this film, kill your excitement now so you are not let down while you watch it. Truly a terrible film at best. Why did Bungie even bother trying to milk the Halo franchise this far? It should have been left as a game. Save ourself the money and don't buy it.

Well, i had the movie but i said to myself that i would finish reading the book before i watched the film. I thoroughly enjoyed the book and i knew that the film would be great. I was wrong. For those people like me that really don't like those inaccuracies from your favourite books to films, this one will really annoy you. There were so many inaccuracies in this film it was unbelievable. First of all, Saphira grew to a massive size in a couple of seconds, whats with that? And the dragons did not have scales, they had things which looked oddly enough like feathers. Brom was the one who ended up burning down Garrow's house, because he was dead and wanted to rid the evidence; why? Oh and the Ra'Zac were not hooded, neither did they look ANYTHING remotely like what Paolini described, and for some reason one of them was killed by Brom. And the event where Eragon first utters "Brisingr" is merged with a completely different part of the story. We actually see Galbatorix a lot when he only talked about, and that goes for the rest of the evil side, we are NOT supposed to know what they are doing. And Durza didn't look like the shade i imagined, he looked like someone who just got out of a pub fight because of his hair. The urgals are too small for what Paolini described, and they look too much like humans. There are many many more inaccuracies in this film, but I'm not going to bore you with any more, or break my keyboard doing so. The amount of problems in this film really annoyed, me as you can tell, so much that i never gained interest in the film at all. If you have not read the book you would probably enjoy it more. On a lighter note, this is a good family entertainment film for those who do not care about these inaccuracies. Children will definitely enjoy this film as it does hit home with the fantasy aspect. The computer generated graphics are superb, the landscape and costumes are excellent, and the acting is good. And because of these reasons its a four. And for those who said the ending was too open and nothing happened, you do know there is, when the fourth is released, four books, right? Oh and because this film was thought of as "terrible" by those who love Paolini's books, there wont be a movie sequel. And if you ask me, once the fourth book is released a GOOD company should work closely with Paolini to make all four films the way the readers imagine it.
