Dragonheart

I am a man who is willing to admit when he wrong. Just yesterday I posted a review of 28 Days Later. I discovered it on Fancast.com and theorized that no good or even half decent movies could be found on this site for free. Well I am really munching on crow now. I found a movie that was not only enjoyable is was all together fun as well. The plot is fairly simple; a lone crusader has a personal vendetta to rid the world (or at least his part of it.) of any and all dragons. This becomes his particular mission when one cuts him to the quick. The only catch is there is really only one dragon left. I think we both know what’s coming next this particular dragon is the lone cause of his crusade. So what happens when thus said dragon spouts anthropomorphic tendencies and they (the knight and the dragon) actually becomes friends? Well you’ll have to check this movie out to divulge that truth. I’m not telling. What I will tell you however is how much I enjoyed this cinematic feature. I was enticed to the full. It was heartwarming, entertaining and all together a pleasure to inhale. Inhale I did fire breathing vermin and all. I took it all in the whole nine yards and I walked away a happier reviewer. The cinematography was jaw dropping. The score was magnificent and the outspoken little read head filled out the part of main love interest for our aforementioned rouge valiant quite well. Talk about a matchstick, this little spartan was full of vigor and vitality. She set the screen ablaze with her own style of fire breathing and won our hero’s heart armor and all. I salute Dina Meyer for playing the part of Kara to utmost perfection. She was a sight for this lonely bachelor eyes and worthy of praise oh so early on a Sunday morning. The writing was good too. It was a different type of buddy cop movie based in the days before cops and movies as well. There have always been buddies though and this friendship was one for the ages. I give this 103 minute adventure my highest praise with a grade of An “A”. Grade A

A note from an editor!

Hi Matthew,


Thank you for the time and effort you put into this piece, especially on a Saturday morning. I can tell you definitely took good notes of everything that was going on during the event!


We still have some work to do before this piece is ready to print. Your piece has a lot of information, but it doesn’t sound like a news article. What was the point of his speech/presentation? Why was he addressing this audience? What is Vanguard? What does the company do – who does it serve? You spend a lot of time narrating (for example, how he was injured), but did not report on the purpose of the event. You can maybe mention his appearance/joking about it in a sentence or two, but do not take several paragraphs to do so. Also, I like how you mentioned where the name “Vanguard” comes from.


There are a lot of spelling errors in this piece – make sure you proof read each sentence carefully.


I know I am getting back to you a little later I hoped, and I’m sorry about that! But if you have time tonight, please go through my suggestions and try to rework your piece. You can send me what you have tonight/tomorrow morning. Please bring a copy of it to the meeting tomorrow and we will discuss it further from there.


Once again, thanks for your hard work and promptness! Remember this is a learning process, and we are all part of the Waltonian team!


Talk to you soon!
