Also, we need to stop acting like children will watch anything. Children deserve good writing too.
Depends on the age
@@Groggle7141depends on you're intelligence
Agreed. Children are still worthy of content of substance compared to the shlock of some movies like this.
Regardless of age, if the child can't comprehend serialization it shouldn't be bad media, like elsagate
@@jessicapinkman-hd4bw Wrong your
Yah know what would've made more sense on why the kingdom has outlawed the nights? They developed new weapons,change in laws of government and ideology and the knights didn't like the change so the leader of the knights stages a rebellion against the kingdom and it's changed and the nights during the rebellion are swiftly defeated and outlawed for there betrayal. Hence why the main villain has a grudge against the kingdom because his father faught in that rebellion as there leader
You’re right! That would’ve made so much more sense.
It's knight like 💀
Agree. In history firearms became a new form of protection making knights obsolete. I think the film would have been better if firearms were the reason why knights were outlawed or just not needed anymore. This would create a guns kill message while at the same time say that violence with swords is bad. Also, I think Justin should have grown as a character becoming a true knight which includes performing chivalrous acts, fighting monsters, and saving people instead of stupid exposition and his training. Lastly, Sir Clorex should have been the main villain as a knight in shining armor that Justin reads about and wants to be like him only to figure out that he’s bad. This would work as Justin realizing that not every knight is good, it would emphasize the idea “Don’t always trust a knight in shining armor because some are men who has never had their armor truly tested.” Justin learns that being a knight isn’t about wearing shining armor nor winning a princess’s heart, it about doing what’s right to protect others. I don’t like Justin’s appearance because he looks too similar Hiccup and Linguini, I think Justin should have looked handsome but still be young because his big nosed wimpy appearance, personality, and lack of character growth makes it hard to believe he would become a knight nor a hero. I think he should have grown as a character who starts off as an unskilled inexperienced young boy who dreams of winning the heart of a princess to a full grown brave might armored knight performing epic heroic acts while learning what being a knight really means. His character should have a had flaws, growth, and change from a silly fool to a serious warrior. This would be like Berserk but for kids. Just my opinion.
Is that supposed to be a dragon or a wimpy alligator?
yes...
He looks like a poor man’s Big Lipped Alligator from All Dogs Go to Heaven 1 (but wait until the future when I make a Pac-Man movie that has all the characters in their Pac-Man World 2 designs (including Orson with the voice and design he had in PMW3)! This movie might as well have Pacodile (a portmanteau of “Pac” and “Crocodile”, a Big-Lipped Alligator lookalike (with the eyes of Pac-Bear aka Sam Elliot Bear) that is actually on par with BLA and played by PhantomStrider!)!
Where even was he in the movie? I mean it doesn't appear in the movie that much. Like wtf man.
It's an alligator made to look like a dragon
It's more a crocodile, alligators have broader nose thingies
“I want to be a knight like grandpa!”
*”Your grandpa was an asshole.”*
“No he wasn’t!”
It's a coincidence that he's in a DreamWorks rip off when he was already in a DreamWorks movie!
*8th comment*
Antonio Banderas will likely return to form with the Puss in Boots sequel also by DreamWorks
@@kieranstark7213 Wouldn't you know, the trailers have just been released and Antonio is returning!
@@kieranstark7213 this comment aged like fine wine.
this actually wasn't that bad a flick, even for a low-budget ripoff. even had Doc Ock in it too
And Professor Sivana
I actually loved this as a kid
And freddie Highmore
Bro it’s not even that. He voiced VIGGO FROM RACE TO THE EDGE TOO
My favorite thing is that the "dragon" doesn't even feature in this review other than a one off line at the very beginning. Gotta love the first flight ripoff scene.
One of your best reviews

You know, for a how to train your dragon rip off
Theres an awful lack of dragons.
It wasn't evan trying to repicate that Movie.
@@watershipfalls5520 Evan was trying his best.
Yeah this movie is nothing about training dragons, I guess it’s to get views via click bait.
Edit sure there’s a few very similarities but their plot and motivations are very different. Like Justin’s hair but orange hair and wanting to be a knight and making them legal.
@@dante_0962it’s like Kiara the Brave, where, despite riding the coattails of Brave, is NOT focused on the princess. But rather some superhuman named Supercloud or something.
Why does the main character's father look like the butler from Big Hero 6?
What made Antonio Banderas think this film could work?
I still can't believe that Puss in Boots and Prince Charming were in this movie
@@homecruz7743 Yeah, Rupert Everett being in this threw me off!
Anyone else gonna point out how they dragged Alfred Molina of all people into this movie, who would later on voice Viggo Grimborn in Dragons Race to the Edge
Man, this thing sucked.
I remember a channel talking about stakes being important in a story.
If the whole “knights are outlawed” is a “stake”, then that Clorox character shouldn’t be included, so the possibility of Justin dying would be greater.
And yeah, Dale reminds me of the 2 villains from 100% Wolf that Bobsheaux reviewed, 2 relatable villains who you feel sorry for and make me actively hate the “heroes”.
Ooh this movie...I've completly forgot that it existed. This is gonna be a fun video😁
I thought that dragon was a crocodile attached to artificial wings and a flamethrower. Oh well.
It is
How to train your dragon 4 looks awful! They should've stopped after 3!
It's not httyd 4, it's a series
@@ines0499 I know. I was making a joke
Yeah it sucks..
I’m not even a HTTYD fan (never really was) and even I think it looks trash.
9:40 OH THAT SCENE ALWAYS HITS ME SO HARD.
Alvin was the name of the villian in the httyd books so it would've been wonderfully funny if they'd named their villain that
Can we talk about the fact that this guy never talked about the dragon
What dragon?? 🤣
@@98953812 the one in the movie lol
@@98953812 Its not really a dragon…it’s more of a… makeshift alligator with wings
29:26 Welp, looks like they're making a HTTYD live action anyways.
The way you described HTTYD story can describe like a billion stories
There's another rip of of Httyd called "How To Train a Dragon Warrior" from Tiga studio
You know the story has potential. What if instead of knights becoming illegal just because, maybe it was coup against the queen.
A band of knights was paid off to turn on the queen, and Heraculio and Justin's grandfather managed to fight them off, but it cost the latter his life. The queen was scarred from the experience because she had always believed in chivalry and what being a knight was supposed to represent, and to have her own men turn on her for money and power left her disillusioned and disheartened by the whole concept to the point she outlawed knighthood itself. Heraculio sees the injustice in this, especially when he and his friend were faithful to their vows and protect her. He refuses to lay down his sword and goes into hiding.
Years later, Justin has been secretly reading stories about famous heroes and knights, including his grandfather, who had been renowned for his chivalry and kindness, which slowly gives Justin the desire to become a knight himself. However, he knows he must keep this hidden from everyone and especially his father, who has hated knighthood ever since those false knights took his father away. The only one who knows about his desire is his grandmother, who, understanding the trauma done against the queen and grieving from the loss of her husband, thinks the law goes too far banning all knights and secretly encourages Justin to pursue his dreams.
Eventually, he trains to become a knight while being confronted with the reality that knights are people too, and they have their own faults and vices, even his grandfather and that being a knight won't be as simple as saving princesses and being nice. This reality is shown off in the form of Heraculio, who has become the very knight he once helped defeat and once to overthrow the queen, even if it cost the people everything.
In the end, Justin vows to be as good of knight he can be and the queen lifts the ban after realizing she's been unjust due to the trauma she suffered.
I remember seeing in this in theaters in Mexico
That ,,dragon" looks like the fat alligator from that game where the gators trying to shower.
I actually used to love this film as a kid
I remember this movie being my childhood. I Watched this movie so many times. And recently I rewatched it. And it still holds up. I see your points about why you dislike it. But this movie will always be a vivid memory of my childhood
Same
The characters flamboyant but he is fun to watch.
24:12 - Schaff: "What the fuck did Tiana done to deserve turning into a frog?"
I loved how to train your dragon because sometimes it was a silent movie, this 1, it was just a pointless exposition dump.
Oh, this movie...
Meh, so so movie.
Thank you for the review on this movie, RaisorBlade.
I rather be like Hiccup to improve oneself instead having things handing over to you.
Wow, I feel like Aang reaction towards the Fire Nation theater play.
Huh, small world.
This just feels like HTTYD but the characters don’t face an actual threat at any given point
but they do
@@blue-vr8dd there is no point where any of the characters feel like they’re in any danger. Ergo, they face no threat.
@artemisfowldragon
there are several points tho
@@blue-vr8dd such as?
When the best character is the villain
Lmao I completely forgot this movie even existed, man is this a throwback
so your telling me
the legend who voiced acted puss in boots made this?
Idk man the love interest has a BUTT load of character and two great personalities
This movie has the animation and art style of a mobile game ad
I saw that movie as a kid on Tv, now seeing it again, I see why
This was not even closely related to how to train your dragon in how there are no dragons.
What do you guys think of the princess from “Justin and the Knights of Valour”? I love her design.😊
I'm sorry, am I the only one who noticed that Justin's father is voiced by the same actor as Vigo Grimborn? One of the main antagonists from the HTTYD Race to the edge series?
😲
This unlocked some long buried memories so… Thanks for that I guess.
I love your funny vids ripping bad movies. The HHTYD trilogy and the Riders/Defenders Of Berk and Race To The Edge were the Beatles of Animation, Nine Relms is the solo Beatles of Animation and this is the bad American Idol audition covers of The Beatles' songs.
The fact that Alfred Molina was in this movie is so sad. That's the same man who voice Viggo in Race to the Edge.
Nah cause “the little panda fighter” is gonna give me nightmares 💀
Saw the film years later and it was.. fine. Though I remember hearing that some of the storyline is similar to The Incredibles, but even that did it 10 times better on the outlawing the heroes and motivation on both sides plot. Overall, I don't hate it, I just found this film mediocre. I'll just stick with HTTYD and The Incredibles 😒
“I want HTTYD”
Mom: “We have HTTYD at home.”
HTTYD at home:
idk man these videos are good cant believe i havent found you till now
Ngl, what amazes me is that movies like these where it's either not known or is a knock off of a movie use that same narrator voice for the trailers
I remember being younger and liking it. Guess I'll give it another look here
It looks like a mix of 'HTTYD' and 'Jane and the Dragon'
Why does the old woman look like the grandma from that weird ad for the garden game thing...
Could you make a video like this one about the movie Redshoes and the seven dwarfs?
Honestly I forgot the dragon was there until you said something and I looked at the comments
Must have been hard editing this with one hand
😳
The Person who Voices the Dad in this movie also voices Viggo in Race To The Edge?!
So Viggo is the main characters dad in this.
I’m joking by the way.
i feel like everyone forgot about riders and defenders of berk
I remember Defenders of Berk, especially when before being replaced with another program on a channel I used to go just to watch it, it "ended" in a cliffhanger on the episode (The eel effect).
Showing rather than telling is something a lot of film schools NEED to do a better job of teaching their students. (That and being willing to speak up during the storyboard phase). They should be able to draw a singular picture with zero words at all, and be able to tell a whole story with it. I just don't really understand how so many films miss that mark!
Since I can't attach images or links without RUclips getting salty, I'mma describe an image without outright saying, or implying anything, and see if I can accomplish that goal.
A small, canvas wing biplane rests in a grassy field. There are matted lines of grass behind the tires, slowly becoming more compressed the closer to the middle of each line you go. There are two small burn patches in the grass as well, below the exhausts. The propeller is a blur, with the yellow tips showing up as a concentric circle. Nobody is currently in the plane. A man dressed in a WWI pilot's uniform is on his knees beside the machine, with his head in his hands, facing away from the viewer. A second biplane of similar pattern is about 400 feet in front of the first one I described, completely crumpled over. It's riddled with holes, and a small patch of poppy flowers lies just in front of where the nose is dug into the floor.
As the great Gordon Ramsay once put it,
"What's so f***ing complicated about this!?"
Httyd, riders of berk, defenders of berk, httyd 2 race to the edge, httyd 3. The best time of my childhood
About halfway or so in (the point about Dale being right) and have to say that this story really had potential and sadly it was never expanded upon. But no fear as I create a short summary for those wanting to read and give a plot to better fix this!! But I’m going to be using three key points Sir RaisorBlade, knight of reviews made. Well more like points I find interesting enough to be fixed up since I honestly see this movie working
Point 1: the apparently large number of laws that really shouldn’t be present in a film!
I agree with RB on the point that it would have been interesting to have Justin make a jab at his father’s insane number of laws that ended up having his own father killed since that is perfect story writing and from there we can build up a subplot where the two just don’t even talk to each other after Justin leaves as we could instead have focus on the father even more as he tries to see where he went wrong only to figure out that he is being too protective and that these laws he made are only causing more pain than peace. Oh yeah I think the Queen in this idea should be a bit stubborn on the changing the law thing. The number of laws in this film is insane and I do think they should have put a heavy focus on that since it connects with the knights being outlawed as we could also explore an idea where some of the knights who became outlawed actually split up when Dale destroyed the grandfather shortly after the laws were made and we might have them appear during small parts until Justin who realises that the knights were okay and are kind of needed tries to reunite them. Though that is sequel material and we aren’t talking about a sequel today
Point 2: Character development isn’t here?! How can a romance story happen without development?!!!
This part is brief as the most important thing this film needs is character development! Especially for a romance plot and/or subplot!!! As a guy who loves stories and makes his own I really do believe that character development is one of the most important things for a story to be excellent. Even if the movie plot is bad as long as character development is achieved then it may save the bad plot. Anyway the focus should be on the relationship with Justin, non-Astrid whose name I forgot and the other people of that castle since it would be amazing if they all had something in common. Heck we might as well throw in the classic sparring match with the love interest
Point 3: make a better ending that makes sense to plot. And thoughts so far while adding more development for Dale
I know I’m rambling on and probably to the point where I’m pretty much reinventing the film, but I really do think these changes may make it better or even more original than who it’s trying to imitate at most. It doesn’t seem that bad when you look at it in the perspective of what it could have been, but while watching the video more I can see that the film had so much potential. Even Dale has so much potential for a villain as it would be more powerful if the finale had Dale and Justin fight with personal beliefs being put to the test as we could have Dale go so far into his goal that he loses the sense of right and wrong, only believing that becoming king himself can make a world free of law as that is what causes the kingdom to go on its bad path in the first place. However Justin could believe that the law could help keep peace and that the knights are meant to help maintain it, not corrupt it. With these points I think it could change the film and make it better. Oh and have non-Gaston become a knight since Wynaut? And as RB said make him do something useful that can move the plot somewhere! Actually focus on character development and plot to make it better
Alright this is long, but I can see the amount of ways to fix this film, but most likely will never happen. This was an Edoko essay and I hope this could help anyone in making a story or something special. If anyone actually read this whole thing
Goodness, there's a lot of big names in this movie from Alfred Molina to Charles Dance.
Did any of you notice the dads voice? I’m pretty sure that sounds like a old guy we know called Vigo, like hiccup he changes and goes against Krogan and Johann to free him and Toothless and then the Skrill. He was interesting, I liked how strategic he was and how evil he was, well krogan did kill one of his men while Vigo saved one of his men from the inside of a volcano. He changed, actually a few villains changed. Dagur did.
Alfred Molina. He voiced both.
I’m literally hearing his voice everywhere now
I remember watching this film as a kid and absolutely adored it, Httyd was my all time favourite thing back then and it still is now, yet i never connected the two together. I think because it was so alike to httyd is the reason i liked it, i havent watched it since i was around 7 so ill have to go watch it again.
More like Knights Of What Even?!
Calling him Alvin would have been an insult to the HTTYD book series.
As an epileptic person myself, what's so funny about having seizures? Hell, having that many in 1 movie; that guy is lucky he's not dead!
i actually got a dvd in italian of that shit, i remember the weird wizard hooking him p litterally with the spit or somthing like that
I watched this movie on live TV on the movie channel but I never thought it was related at all to httyd
Justin’s dad was also the voice of Viggo grim born a villain in the httyd series
The odd thing is there are a couple of interesting ideas that could be made into a fantasy movie. I’m not saying they’ll be good but they’d be a little less boring than this. Like the whole justice vs law thing with knights. There’s something there. And mix it up with Justin’s relationship with his dad. I think that needed to be developed a little more. (Yh I know HTTYD did that). Or the stuff with the ‘knights’ and their reasons to be ones either for fame, old days of glory or just to do what is right. They could’ve done something a little different there instead of another animated hero’s journey. Honestly the stuff I remember and liked was the stuff with Talia and the wizard. Honestly a wizard with a split personality sounds funny and clever for a fantasy story.
I really do not get the Turning Red drama. These people have clearly never seen a Dingo Pictures Film or Joshua and The Promised Land.
He lost me once I realized he was part of that crowd going insane over a simple art style
This was not a knock off of how to train your dragon. I mean sure, the plot is simplistic and predictable but Justin and the Knights of Valour offers decent entertainment. I gave it three out of five 3/5.
I never noticed that this was similar to HttyD. Hmmm.
A name like "Heraclio" has to be made up.
That's the name of my street 👁️💧👄👁️

Ooh, this is gonna be good!!!!!!
It was released in Czech Republic too. Don’t ask how I know.
You known what could have been more interesting? If Dale was Justin’s master and the two form a bond together, which would make thier fight even more interesting!
You know, I never put thought into this- but this is why I watch most anime GOOD PLOT. relatable villains, like idc that I'm watching cartoons FoR BaBiEs anime is usually very well made and thought out. But most animated movies don't put in as much effort and villains usually have a really bad motive.
i love villain's more than heroes in anime's, but its hard to find villain mc i want some more mc like light yagami,

If people want a prime example (no pun intended) of show don't tell, they should seriously go watch Genndy Tartakovsky's Primal. There is a character who speaks in the last...two episodes of season one? And the main character says nothing until the last 5 minutes of the first season. And yet, it's an amazing show
ngl I remember liking this when I first watched it, might rewatch it to see if it still holds up
Justin's dad is even the voice actor for Viego Grimborn from Race to the Edge lol
I really liked this movie as a kid
To be fair, the movie was already being planned before Antonio Banderas got involved. Remember Replicas? That mediocre movie with horrible VFX starring Keanu Reeves? When everybody asked him what was he doing in such a film, he said the director was his friend and he did as a favour. I think something similar happened here. Someone from the studio must have known Banderas and convinced him to produce the movie, and of course, being Antonio Banderas the producer, they put his name everywhere.
