DVD Synopsis

While knights usually slay dragons, a would-be hero tries to save the world by keeping a dragon alive in this adventure fantasy. In ancient times, Geoff (Christopher Masterson), a young man who works as a stable boy, wants to prove himself by becoming a knight. Geoff trains on his own, diligently but with little success. However, he gets an unexpected assist when he discovers Drake (Voice of Robby Benson), a young dragon, trapped in a dungeon. Drake teaches the aspiring knight a few lessons about bravery and loyalty, and in turn, Geoff gives Drake a few tips on how to fly. But an evil knight with dreams of ruling the world discovers a magic formula that will make him all powerful -- and the only ingredient he lacks is the heart of a dragon. Now Geoff and a pair of Chinese travelers steeped in dragon lore must protect Drake before his heart can fall into the wrong hands. Dragonheart: A New Beginning, a direct-to-video sequel to 1996's Dragonheart, was also promoted under the title {#Dragonheart II. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

Editorial Review of DVD

Doug Lefler's follow-up to the fantasy film Dragonheart comes to DVD with a standard full-frame 1.33:1 image. A closed-captioned English soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital 5.1, while a French soundtrack has been recorded in Dolby Digital Surround. There are no subtitles on this release. Supplemental materials include a "making of" featurette, a featurette about the animating process for the dragon, production notes, cast and filmmaker biographies, and a trailer. This is a fine disc that will please genre enthusiasts and may entertain the entire family. ~ Perry Seibert, All Movie Guide
