Dragon Fighter

Dean Cain, how far you've fallen. This direct-to-video, uh, thing did manage to provide us with a little under an hour and a half of entertainment, but mostly at it's expense. This si one of those movies where you can glance at the screen and infer exactly what's going on. Dean Cain starts the movie with a subtle southern drawl whish disappears as soon as they land the helecopter. A bunch of scientists (who apparently don't actually work for anyone who cares) clone a dragon that grows to full size in the time it takes them to microwave a burrito after inserting the neucleus of one cell into another cell. Two character who I'm not sure even had names die instantly when they go into the lab to investigate the abnormal growth. Dean Cain's character has pyrophobia which isn't actually acted as a phobia so much as it's a "holy crap that dragon is breathing fire at me, I'd better get out of the way!" So the pyrophobia we're told about during "character development" disappears before they even tell us about it. The dragon actually doesn't look that bad as they saved budget by playing the same cycling animation of the dragon walking through a circular hallway. at least they had the budget to light some people on fire. When the fusion reactor blows it looks more like a couple dozen strings of firecrackers laid out on the front lawn. At the very end neither Dean Cain nor his "love interest" (they don't even kiss) seem to care about the fact that six of their co-workers were just killed within the last day. The dragon is capable of maintaining pace with fighter jets, which can't lock onto it because it's heat signature isn't hot enough, so Dean Cain opens the fuel door and spills helecopter fuel all over the dragon then shoots it with a flare gun, igniting the beast, negating the actual need to blow it up with rockets. They blow it up anyway. The best part of the movie was the deaf chef "Cookie." He isn't actually deaf, he's just faking. "They were only hiring disabled people. I needed the job." He gets roasted twenty minutes later.
