I had a friend get me into the book series. Then i found this movie. Worst. Movie. Ever. Don't buy this, don't watch it, you will regret it.

If you haven't read the book it starts as our hero Eragon dreaming of some one (will be named later) who is running from a dark wizard. Later while hunting through the forest Eragon finds a big blue stone and takes it. Later the stone hatches and a little blue baby girl dragon comes out. She grows up after a little while as Eragon finds out about Dragon Riders. Not long after Saphira grows to full leangth Eragon's uncle is killed and he is taken by a "town drunk" who turns out to know more about dragons then he let on. While on their path to find the last of the Varden (people who faught aginst the king) they deal with Razacs, and the kings forces as well as find the woman who Eragon was dreaming about. Its a good movie but some of the goofs are painfuly obvious, but that is what makes some movies so unforgetable

My BF is the one who wanted us to see this movie. I have to admit I was apprehensive at first, but when the movie ended we agreed that it was one of the best movies we had seen. The ending makes you so excited for part 2. The only thing I didn't like was the ghostlike dragon was too easy to destroy.....ANXIOUSLY WAITING PART 2!!! lol

The updated colors and sounds that blu-ray offers is a great buy for any movie and this one is no exception. Loved Eragon when it first came out in theaters and now I can watch it whenever I want.

this is a good story about good verses evil.they left some of the key parts that were in the book .they left out when eragon bless the child.that is a key part in the second book. i wuold recomend reading the book.

This movie was recommended to me by 'futuremrsbrazil' to watch this movie, but it reminded me of two other saga movies, namely Star Wars and Lord of the Rings. I liked it but with the young farm boy learning about dragon riding, it was too much like Luke Skywalker learning about the Force. Okay, what happened to the farm boy's brother? He left at the beginning of the movie and never returned, but the ending left an openning of a sequel, just like Lord of the Rings. I don't think it will continue, because the tickets sales was low.

OK the movie is good but the reason to buy this dvd is to watch the extras on the 2nd disk. Their are deleted parts and if you look deep enough you will find out about the 3rd book and the 2nd movie. Its a really good movie that will show you the world of Eragon.

Great story full of magic and adventure and a stellar cast!

Following up to the amazing book comes the movie Eragon. The movie features new actors that can't act, a big cut out of the book's storyline which was stupid since the movei is a pretty short movie, and fairly good visual effects, I was happy about them.

I watched this movie before I read the book and absolutely loved it. It stronglyreminded me of Lord of the Rings. But then I read the book and rewatched the movie. I ended up hating it! First of all, Eragon is supposed to be 15 when he finds Saphira. And the characters didn't look anything like what was described in the book. It was VERY different from the book. It's really disappointing because the book had a lot of potential to being made into a great movie. It seems like they would come out with the next movie, Eldest, but by the looks of it, it's probably not going to be made.

it's worth watching, but i wouldn't buy it. pros: nice special effects, graphics. cons: the movie was slow getting started, and by the end it had felt sort of like a lord of the rings wannabe.

I read the book and this movie is so far off from the book I don't see how they can continue the series. I think they spent practically their entire budget 'designing' the dragon but very little on EVERYTHING else. I mean come on back in the '60's they could at least make the aliens look non-human. It was hard to tell who was human and who wasn't as EVERYONE looked human. In my opinion too much was left out and or changed from the book I just think they really dropped the ball on this one.

The special effects were great, especially with Saphira the dragon, but the movie went down a way different path than from the book. This was pretty cheesy.

this movie did not follow the book at all. they didn't even follow the lline right. they left out some of the most important thing that help to lead to the endding
