Storyline
Pete, a boy is found in a forest. Apparently he's been living there for
six years after an accident took his parents. A ranger named Grace
decides to take him in and when she asks him how he survived all by
himself, he says he had a friend, Elliot, with him. He draws a picture
of Elliot and it's a picture of a dragon. Grace takes the picture to her
father who claims that years ago, he encountered a dragon in the
forest. Grace takes Pete back to the forest and he shows them where he
lives and Elliot. A man saw Elliot and when he tells about his
experience and is not believed, he sets out to prove it by capturing the
dragon. Written by

When Grace marks the tree with blue spray paint and mentions that the owl and the tree will be safe now, she is actually marking the tree to be cut down. The U.S. Forest Service works with logging companies to thin forests by marking certain trees with blue spray paint so the loggers know to cut them down. See more »Soundtracks

Might be only interesting if you want to see the computer graphics
It's a very sentimental
movie, which would make you cry all long. Should it be like this or the
creators of this remake tried to cover something with it? It's a fairly
cheap trick to cover up no so great story, which goes closer to
nonsense. The movie is too dark and twisted for my taste. The creators
of this remake pressed too much on our emotions about the family, the
friends, etc. There are so many strange moments starting with the
absolute absence of a character of any kind of Jack. I think that the
manly role should be more pronounced. The main woman role - Grace - is
too sensitive and always on edge of crying, which makes it only
miserable to see. The only role, which was a strong and decisive enough
to create a connection with the reality, was the girl Natalie.
