Might have worked in the hands of Roger Corman and John Sayles.

Empire Magazine

Like a harpoon in the side of Herman Melville's great novel, this low budget fantasy yarn is more drag than dragon.

Rated: 1/5

There is some truth in advertising - Age Of The Dragons does drag on for an age.

Dreadful Moby Dick adaptation that squanders its perfectly decent set-up and is further let down by a terrible script, atrocious acting, poor action sequences and some extremely dodgy special effects.

Rated: 1/5

Age Of The Dragons is a masterclass in how not to execute an interesting concept. The performances, while promising at first, devolve into mediocrity, notably from veteran actor Danny Glover. If you're into laughable CGI dragons and abysmal screenwriting, Age Of The Dragons will be a fun watch. However, if you’re like me, this film will be an unwatchable disaster.

Moby Dick with dragons (really skinny, odd looking ones). The concept is okay, the execution doesn't work. None of Ahab's crew is very loyal, and Danny Glover seems to have left his acting chops back in the 90's. This is dull and almost lifeless. Sofia Pernas is pretty hot though.

Llevar a Moby Dick a esto es lamentable, una película aburrida con nada digno de resaltar.
