3/5
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. Go to Full Review

Overall, Dragonkeeper fails to deliver on an exciting premise, making it an easily forgettable film. Go to Full Review

A beautiful animation that is the perfect introduction to world cinema for children of all ages. The fantasy element is remarkable and opens up a whole new world that needs to be explored. Go to Full Review

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

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. Go to Full Review
Carla Hay Culture Mix 05/11/2024
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. Go to Full Review

Dragon Lover 05/07/2024 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. See more Barb 05/04/2024 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! See more Christina 05/04/2024 Dark, violent, terrifying for 7 year old See more Jasmine S Nov 17 The voice acting was flat and lacked emotion. The actors also having a strong English accent for a movie set in Ancient China was jarring and really pulled you out the story. Unsure why this was the choice the film went with it when it has such a significant impact on the story telling. See more Baldwin C Jul 14 OMG. Send a white Spanish company to hire a bunch of British actors to be Chinese and use tropes that are so stereotyped and "Ancient Exotism" to make a movie for kids to to think that this is what China is all about. So stupid! A wanna be Raya using mystical Chi. Cuz all Chinese people have Chi and no one else does. Right. But if you're European, you can also make a movie about it and have Chi too. Ugh! This is the type of movie that tries to capitalize on kids and foreignism but does more damage than good without realizing it. Thank you white people for a show about ancient China and chi power and dragons.
