At the same time, peace reigned in the country of Alagazia, when noble dragons lived in harmony with the creators of the dragon, their power and witchcraft.

At the borders of this country, subject to the color of King Tyrannic, a young farmer in the name of Ergon, one day, discovers a strange blue stone in the middle of the forest.

The era of fantastic things
In the mid-2000s, due to things such as the lord of the seals or Harry Potter, the real triumph in the box office, many other adaptations of fantastic literary subjects … more or less successfully.
If some franchises, like Narnia or Bill – were particularly released, some unfortunately did not have the same success and stopped even after the first part. It was a case of Eragon that is adapted from a series of novels Heredity By Christopher Paolin. This literary work of heroic fantasy in 2003 received the melodies of phenomena, which is of particular importance to the author as his character as his hero, that is, only at the age of 15 when writing his first opus!
Cold in receiving
Three years after the publication of the first novel, the film has already been released in the cinema, director Stefen Fangmeier (who signed his first and last feature film). However, if Eragon was a very effective fun for the neophyte viewers, he particularly collected many negative criticism, especially frustrated readers who were reprimanded for his deviations, which were very numerous and very important to the original work.
Provided that Paolin’s work never put his nose in the nose, however, the film Eragon was not entirely interested. It is quite nice to consider (especially for a beautiful relationship between Eragon and its Sahira bracelet), he also benefited from a solid soundtrack and an interesting actor, as it was Jeremy Iron, who called Valiant Brom, Garrett Hedlund, who was encamped in Murtag and Rachel.
One movie
As for the bad Galbatorix, it was John Malkovic himself, who portrayed him in some rare sequences and especially in the last scene of the film, which is clearly called a continuation. But because of very cold critical reception (on average from 5 stars to 2.04 for allocating viewers) and modest cash registers (US $ 249 million all over the world), Eragon’s adventure in cinema never exceeded this first opus.
Moreover, director Stefen Fangmeier did not instill any feature film, and the film’s young main interpreter Edward Spellers’s career is not really removed (except in Downton Abbey, you or Star Trek Picard series).
If you are looking for a beautiful fun to find a family with a Disney+, or a wonderful adventure in the fantastic world, this part of this part does not prevent anything from sinking into Alagasia.
