Pros: superb video and audio encodes
Cons: scattershot screenplay; not much in the way of bonus material

A soured childhood friendship that diverges into two very different adult lives gets a cursory and somewhat unsatisfying dissection in Roland Joffé’s There Be Dragons. While either of the adults under scrutiny might have made an interesting protagonist for a movie, dividing time between the two of them and including a framing story with one of the men’s sons drains away much of the flavor and color from what might otherwise have been a gripping narrative of souls struggling to make sense out of the chaos of the Spanish Civil War.
