FILMINK rates DVDs and Blu-rays out of 5"Well worthy of a slot in the top ten worst movies of the year..."
Cashing in on all things Game Of Thrones, Age Of The Dragons is a medieval fantasy tale that finally brings together not only Danny Glover and Vinnie Jones in the same movie, but also cleverly intertwines the story of Moby Dick with, er, Dragons. After his sister is killed and he's left horribly disfigured by the White Dragon, Ahab, Glover, swears revenge. So when aspiring young harpooner Ishmael (Corey Sevier) joins his crew seeking fame and adventure he gets more than he bargained for when he finds himself joining Ahab on his suicidal quest to track down the White Dragon. Well worthy of a slot in the top ten worst movies of the year, and probably of all time for that matter, Age Of The Dragons goes beyond the realm of laughably poor to being just plain bad. Not worth your time or any more space in this column.
