8/10
I HOPE THEY ALL ESCAPE AND EAT YOU

Warning: Spoilers
Dr. Simon Lowell ( Corin Nemec) is working on the K.R.O.N.O.S. project designed to stop volcanic eruptions and harness the energy on top of that. He has a barbie doll daughter (Mia Faith) who disapproves of his barbie doll near girlfriend (Victoria Pratt). He also has a barbie doll assistant (Sophie Tilson) who unfortunately gets eaten by a dragon early in the film. As a volcano erupts, dragon cocoons emerge and kill people. It seems this always happens, but has just become a problem here of late. Dr. Lowell is blamed for everything, then in the formulaic twist is called on the save the world forcing his daughter to bond with his wannabe girl friend. WOW! Didn't see that coming!

There is a cute subplot that never really intersects the main plot involving a high beam reporter assistant (Dominika Juillet) attempting to crack the story of the top secret dragons.

The film is not great by any means. It appears the blondes all failed out of the same drama club. The dragons are mostly in the sky, with a few close-ups. The dialogue is at times light, which was a plus, but it wasn't well delivered. The plot was full of holes. Mia Faith managed to get across a few good moody teen scenes, although there were other scenes she bombed.

Rates 8 stars on the cheese scale. Suitable for Asylum fans. No f-bombs, sex, or nudity.
