An action-packed kids’ movie with plenty of PG-rated bashing and a real spirit of adventure. The letdown is some fairly average animation, and human characters that move like cheap marionettes with jolty limbs.

Rated: 3/5

... Unfortunately, Dragonkeeper fails to forge its own identity that distinguishes it from the rest. [Full review in Spanish]

Perhaps not surprisingly, given that the book on which the movie is based is part of a series, the movie doesn't wrap everything up too neatly.

Dragonkeeper is a shoddy adaptation of Carole Wilkinson's fantasy novel of the same name. This animated film makes the story unfocused and bland. Most of the voice cast performances are stiff, with no real personality. They're just reading their lines.

Sure, it’s a little strange hearing Asian characters speaking with British accents, but once you get used to that, the movie’s adventure delivers a good time.

Rated: 3/4

I agree with other reviewers that it's not a movie for the younger ones. I liked it because it had dragons(I love dragons) and it's hard to find good dragon movies. It was paced well and it kept me entertained.

I took my grandson, age 7, and he seemed to like it but started loosing interest with 15 minutes to go. I found the movie very dark, both in storyline and appearance. Would not recommend this movie at all, but I think my grandson thought it was alright. I think he just enjoyed spending the day with grandma!

I have to say I read all the reviews after the movie, what's shocking is the reviews that were bad had no substance as I was fully emersed with each character the storyline was amazing, even so I will watch it again. The voices were amazing too and if you are also drawn to the dragon it's a must see. I give this film a solid 10/10.

I grew up reading the Dragon Keeper books and was so excited to hear there was a movie adaptation of the first book. This was a great movie and did well to tell the novels tale in about an hour. Danzi has always been my favorite.
