We've all had that moment when we finish a movie and think, “Well, that was a waste of time.” But some movies go beyond disappointment and leave us with an intense desire to erase them from existence.
The movie also garnered criticism for its casting decisions, as many of the characters were portrayed by white actors despite the show being set in a fictional world inspired by Asian cultures.
The film is based on the first book in the Inheritance Cycle series by Christopher Paolini. The story follows Eragon, a young farm boy who discovers a dragon egg and becomes embroiled in a conflict between good and evil.
The movie was widely criticized for its poor storytelling, weak characterization, and poor use of special effects. It was also criticized for straying too far from the source material and for its poor representation of characters.
It is based on the 1953 novel of the same name by Ray Bradbury. In a society plagued by dystopia, books are forbidden, and “firemen” are tasked with burning any copies discovered.
The story revolves around a gunslinger named Roland Deschain, played by Idris Elba, who is on a quest to reach the “Dark Tower,” a mythical structure that is said to be the center of all universes.
