Synopsis
DragonHeart (1996) is Rob Cohen's fantasy adventure you can watch online on iFILM. A knight sets out to slay the last dragon alive and ends up sharing his quest instead.
Bowen (Dennis Quaid) once tutored the young prince Einon in honor and the Old Code. The boy grew into a cruel tyrant, and Bowen blames the dragon who once gave the prince half his own heart to keep him breathing. Years later the knight finally corners the great beast. There's a catch: kill the dragon and the hated king dies too, so the two sworn enemies are forced into an uneasy partnership. The dragon, Draco, speaks with the deep, dry, world-weary voice of Sean Connery.
The cast rounds out with David Thewlis as the scheming king, plus Dina Meyer and Pete Postlethwaite. Draco was brought to life by a then-young ILM, and for 1996 the digital character work was a real leap forward. A story about loyalty, betrayal and whether one soul can answer for another's sins, it remains one of the warmest dragon tales ever filmed. Stream DragonHeart (1996) online on iFILM.
