The science in Eragon has the same relationship to physics that I have to going to the gym: aspirational.

Eragon treats "worldbuilding" the way a toddler treats a fruit bowl — enthusiastically, briefly, then forgotten.

Eragon should come with a complimentary pillow for when the third-act CGI soup inevitably kicks in.

Unpopular opinion: Eragon is the most overrated film of the decade
Director clearly thought Eragon was deeper than it is. There's a difference between ambiguous and unfinished, and this leans hard into the second.

[Spoilers] Can we discuss that absolutely baffling ending in Eragon?
Rewatched Eragon last night and noticed even more plot holes than the first time. The motivations don't track at all once you stop and think about act two.

Hot Take: Eragon's third act ruined what could have been a masterpiece
Just got out of Eragon and I'm convinced critics are being paid in residuals. Two genuinely good scenes do not make a film. Convince me otherwise.
