Damsel Review of Millie Bobby Brown's Dragon Fantasy on Netflix. Normal Fairy tales are about romance and marriage with heroes saving the day. Damsel is a very different story on Netflix, with no damsel in distress messaging. While critics reviews panned the trailer and movie we find out that heroes and chivalry exist for a reason. And Damsel removes all of them. Is Damsel worth watching?

Damsel Review of Netflix's subversive fairy tale where it's ever so proud that chivalry exists in other stories to save the damsel, but not this one! It's the most obvious movie around where you can predict all the bad guys just by looking at the actors. The sisterhood is strong and literally every man gets wiped out by the end. If you want a character that could take on Rey Skywalker in a fight, you've got one here, where the Damsel can magically do any action required to win. No experience necessary here, but for a movie meant to undermine tropes, it's one long cliche. But what did you think of what you saw? Let me know your thoughts down below and as always, thanks for watching :)

The most annoying thing about this film is that it’s not as though there isn’t potential in this story and trope subversion. Humanising the villain (the dragon) and communicating with it instead of just killing it because a female character might have a different approach than a man isn’t a terrible idea. Teaming up with it to get revenge at the end? Also, not bad. Her predilection to maps and mazes could have paid off by her charting the dungeon as she explores it. I’d say it’s a waste but this project was doomed from the start with these writers.

very mcuh so. her trying to find a way out makes sense. erfusing to accept her fate. but then you have the asinine thing like letting her father die when he litreally came to save her. And her somehow overpowering the dragon that crushed armies.... and said dragon being vulnerable to her own fire.... It isn't sooo bad an idea that the dragon isn't inherently malevolent, its spite towards the family that killed her children vs anything else. though it killing the peeps and her father is a plot hole cause she shoulda been like 'why are you here. you do not smell like them.'

And I'm not talking about trick the family played; even if they had sacrificed actual members of the family; those girls would have had nothing to do with what the king did; even punishing the king by killing those daughters (still evil, mind you) has been dead for centuries, you can't punish him anymore; so it's been killing the innocent regardless of the trick.

Idea for a movie: Dragon in Kingdom demands his usual sacrifice of young womam every year. The classic. Dragon is indeed strong and nobody can touch him. They tried for years. Plan to train up young girls into assassins as only they get close enough as sacrifice. Trained from 6 years old into some murderous killing machines. Movie follows the one that seems the one with the most potential. Done. All the empowerment. Enough logic to be at least feasable.

I understand your point that yes the juices inside me can hurt my outside but also I can't really die from an acid burn because of my own puke. The point I'm trying to make is that in almost all fantasy, dragons are immune or at the very least, very resistant to fire. It's really really dumb to kill a dragon with it's own fire unless you tell the audience in a clever way why the dragons can be hurt by their own fire (magic maybe)

@@spongerobert So, i'm no fantasy dragon expert lol but I think it depends how the fire is created. Like there are some dragons that have gas come up their throat and then it ignites in their mouth or near it and they're usually not invulnerable to fire. In fact, it's an effective way to kill it. This dragon's fire seemed liquidy and heavy. If it's liquidy it'll stay on longer. It won't just brush off the scales which works if the fire can't penetrate the dragon scales when quickly brushing across it. Heavy liquid at that temp will probably do some damage.

@@thitpoulsen352 In DnD dragons don't always use fire but whatever they use they're always almost immune to their own damage. In some fantasy stories it's said that if you were to force it's fire breath back down it's own throat it would explode or like in Reign of Fire they killed the dragon with explosive tipped bolts fired down it's throat. The long and short of it is that if it wasn't resistant to it's own breath it would literally hurt itself all the time while doing dragon stuff especially in the case where it uses sticky napalm because it's bound to splash back.

I’m so tired of the “ rebellious princess doesn’t want to marry for political convenience” trope. In medieval times (and even later through to the 19th century), princes and princesses knew that marrying for political reasons was their primary role. They would have been taught to know and accept that duty as a given from a young age, and refusing to marry who your parents told you could cause strife, wars, and hardships for the people they were supposed to rule.

Even as a noble woman she will have to manage her estate and the moment she gets old and dosn't have people to protect her, it will be taken from her, because it's the fucking Middle Ages and people are in survival mode. What is she gonna do when another Nobel starts a fight with her over some trivial bullshit to extort her and she dosn't have men to fight for her? Hire some Mercenaries? And who will protect her from the Mercenaries looting her Estate and raping her?

Nah, dude. I wanted to scream when it wasn’t. Yea, the dragon was by far the coolest character, but from a moral perspective, it should’ve been killed. Elodie could’ve stopped the cycle of death right then and there, protecting the lives of the kingdom (like the king intended when he went to kill the fire breathing force of destruction), and saved herself and her sister. The dragon chose to take vengeance for the death of her innocent kids by…killing innocent kids, instead of taking the life of the guy actually responsible for their deaths. _It didn’t matter that the princesses she killed weren’t the actual daughters of the king, because even if they were, they were innocent._ Elodie is a complete, sociopathic jerk. I wanted her _and_ the dragon dead.

Also, why is there a black stepmother married to the king in a medieval themed movie? Everyone would be like "why has our king married this outsider?" She doesn't have an accent like they are trying to imply she was born there, where the frick does she come from? Why is no one questioning this like this is normal? In these kinds of shows, having pointy ears will get you eyed down and yet she looks this different from everyone else and clearly doesn't fit in and everyone accepts it? Wow, the medieval ages was truly an accepting and diverse period in time across Europe, I had no clue.

@@pbradics3670 To be fair, I commented that in the beginning of me watching the video but the point stands. Bad special effects aside, that race baiting move immediately takes you out of whatever could possibly happen because your brain is already noticing something off. Those black people shouldn't be there, this is medieval Europe essentially, they shouldn't be there, let alone married to a king. I don't really care to be honest, but those historical inaccuracies mean a LOT when you are making a historical show. I can't get in the idea of watching a historical movie when I'm staring at modern day on screen.

So...the dragon can smell that.0001% of her blood that is her husband's family, that convinces her that Elodie IS a member of that royal bloodline. Then the dragon meets and (presumably) smells Elodie's father, and can't figure out that Elodie ISN'T part of the royal bloodline... And unless the Queen is also a member of the royal bloodline (incest anyone), the sister won't smell like the royal bloodline at all.

How come the dragon couldn't notice the wounds on other parts of princesses' bodies does not contain the smell of the royal blood?

I would honestly LOOOOOOOVE to watch a movie with a strong, masculine man who saves a feminine woman in distress, especially if it’s a woman he already loves who knows he will come for her. That dynamic of protection, rescue, faith, and trust. That would be a good movie. That would be compelling. Watching some stupid girlboss do things that would literally never happen is so boring. So stupid.

A better maiden saves herself from the dragon story is a Russian film called I Am Dragon. It’s more of a romance/drama but the female character is strong without being an eye-rolling girl boss. There is also a sacrificial ritual in there somewhat but it’s done much better. The subversion of the different fairytale tropes are also done much better.

There's a fair bit of irony that once she knew the dragon was only after the royal family and was being tricked, the best solution was to try to talk to the dragon. They're essentially on the same side here; she just needs to convince the dragon of it. You know, like a woman. Great time to do that would be when her father was pinned down, because A) the dragon isn't focused on her, B) her father can back up her story, either in words or by the dragon figuring out the relation by smell, and C) it might just save his life. But apparently they think heroism is about how badass you are and not about doing the right thing even when it risks your life? Also, rather than burn the whole place, she has the perfect opportunity to use their massive resources to help her people. Get rid of the queen, marry the prince for legitimacy, and start sending supplies. Clearly these people don't have much of a problem with a ruling queen with a figurehead king, and you do have that dragon for anyone who does. So yeah, if she were actually clever and brave, she could have made the world better. Instead she just destroys everything.

Nah, even though she did NOT know her father betrayed her and knew she was going to be sacrificed, she just lets the Dragon kill him.

Tamora Pierce wrote like 20 novels staring women protagonists in medieval fantasy worlds. They were empowered women who fought alongside their male counterparts with weapons of the time, they struggled with various interpersonal issues including, yes, sexism, but also power struggles, magic villains, and of all things currency inflation. And they did it all without girlbossing or putting down their male counterparts. Why can’t we get a movie or a TV show about THESE girls?

This mixing of historical and modern perspectives on arranged marriages is a nonsensical paradox. Even if the bride-to-be had issues with it, it wouldn't come from a self-assured modern perspective on it (marriage wasn't based on love). It's a character with centuries further cultural developments behind her, plopped in among characters in their own era, just to serve some nonsensical masturbatory empowerment fantasy.

@@DieNibelungenliadyeah, but "royal" is not a scent trait. Even with reality aside, the best the dragon could do is smell the bloodline and two mixed royalties. One extremely strong as a wet dog. And one heroin-bag in the water like, because they shook hands. If only it would be so easy for a murderer to outwitt police dogs as shaking hands with people... This goes into realistic vs believability category. Good stories must be believable even when set in unrealistic settings. Just because there are dragons (unrealistic "make believe" settings) doesn't mean you should suddenly make an ordinary princess survive a drop from 200ft, getting abilities on the go that she hadn't have a minute ago, making a dragon not immune to its own element, or presenting a girl who couldn't pierce a croco belly by her own stabbing an elder dragon. There are ways to trick and defeat fire dragons other then "burn them", making them literally less resilient to fire then the princess herself. Can you imagine the mortality of the dragon cubs if this was the case? Believability matters. Even in fantasy (and is mandatory for sci-fi I mind you).

They did it with a Shrek sequel, and despite it not being the best movie, it was way more emotionally impactful than whatever this dreck is. The plot was that rumplestiltskin came to town, saw Shrek was having a rough time adjusting to the noise and busyness of married parent life, and manipulated him into signing away his current life to go back to the quiet peace he had as a bachelor. This meant he never saved Fiona, of course, so she ended up saving herself and forming an ogre guerrilla war. Dizzied and disappointed by how much worse the world was after choosing to never meet the love of his life, Shrek goes on a mission to reunite with Fiona (who’d never met him in this reality), share true love’s first kiss, and restore his former life. A whole bunch of silly shenanigans ensue with him encountering this alternate reality’s version of his friends, eventually leading him back to Fiona. Her struggles have left her jaded, however, and she’s uninterested in anything related to romance. Love never saved her, like she’d been promised; she’d had to save herself. Shrek does manage to kiss her about halfway through the movie, but it doesn’t restore the proper world, because Fiona doesn’t love him. The rest of the movie follows Shrek learning to finally appreciate his loved ones and how much better life is when lived for others instead of spent by oneself, and Fiona learns the same. What that movie taught and Damsel failed to even comprehend, is that even when life fails you-and it will-you should never give up on other people. No matter how easy it may seem to try to shoulder the burdens of life alone rather than enlist the help of those you have convinced yourself you can’t trust, living life alone is never worth it, it won’t make you happy. It’s shocking that a meh sequel to an animated movie that came out over twenty years ago is far, far superior to the work of modern Hollywood in both theming and execution.
