Storyline

In an ancient time when majestic fire-breathers soared through the skies, a knight named Bowen comes face to face and heart to heart with the last dragon on Earth, Draco. Taking up arms to suppress a tyrant king, Bowen soon realizes his task will be harder than he'd imagined: If he kills the king, Draco will die as well.

Critics consensus

“Dragonheart gives us medieval action, a splendidly mulleted Dennis Quaid, and Sean Connery as a talking dragon -- and, unfortunately, a story that largely fails to engage.”

RTChicago Sun-TimesJan 1, 2000

Rob Cohen's Dragonheart is one of the most sublimely silly movies I have ever seen. Since it combines its silliness with special effects that are, quite simply, sublime, I must resist the urge to take easy shots at it.

This mildly engaging castle-storming adventure is best pegged as a family comedy.

Nick Rogers

RTMidwest Film JournalMay 22, 2026

A film more concerned with budgetary management than narrative brio, of high frills and low thrills — essentially proof of concept for bigger, better movies that were in the pipeline.

A laughable disaster.
