I love this movie so much
Plenty to Like, Plenty to Dislike
The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.
OK, if you liked the first one avoid this movie or try to develop amnesia because they have nothing to do with each other. Now that that's out of the way.....do you like larping (that thing where D&D fans dress up and play live action?) If so then there is hope. Larps generally aren't recorded (due to embarrassment I suspect) and that's what this movie is. Some C-level actors larping. The lines might as well be improvised, the "action" (aside from one scene at the start) is childishly acted and the special effects (with the possible exception of the dragon) might as well be borrowed from a highschool drama class.So if your going to watch this (and I don't recommend it) imagine your watching a home video of some people you may recognize larping and you'll get through it.
By second most boring film I mean it was the longest 90 minutes of my life, the most boring film I've ever seen was a low budget horror movie called NECROSIS, a movie with a pace so slow it actually feels like its standing still.However, deep in the back of my mind I don't think Dolph Lundgren is very happy with this film, to think the other potential candidates for the lead role were Randy Couture and Steve Austin (Imagine how it would've turned out then.) the film honestly is terrible, Uwe Boll doesn't create scenes that are great to look at, they are dull and are basically just tight close ups of the actors, most of the cast don't even fit their roles, Lochlyn Munro is completely miss cast as the king, I mean I don't have a problem with him as an actor or otherwise but he doesn't work as the king, Natassia Malthe who is a gorgeous woman and a great actress, struggles to say her lines with a straight face but if you hear the stuff she has to say you can't blame her.The plot itself is actually pretty lousy and slower than a snail, to be more specific if you're familiar with many adventure games where you ask a character a question about something and he or she takes one to two hours to give you the full history of everything than that's how this film really is for a full 62 hours before the first action scene eventually happens.Overall, the one good thing about it is that its a great alternative to a sleeping pill but otherwise its better to go for something directed by someone other than Uwe Boll, I know making movies is hard but you can only cut a film so much slack.
I'm officially boycotting all Uwe Boll movies, I've seen two of his films and their all a waste of time and money, I didn't even realize this was one of this films till it was too late.This movie sucked, terribly. The only thing that I liked was the detail that went into the dragon... otherwise it was terrible. You knew first thing that the "king" was wearing a wig... and a really bad one at that. The fight scenes were pathetic and poorly done, in acting, choreography, and filming of, just terrible. Its said that even in the initial scenes they couldn't even bother to put the fake blood on the knife/dagger/swords even after a stabbing. Why make a fight scene if you aren't going to follow through and make it interesting or even semi-believable? Natassia Malthe must be really good on her knees, because she sure can't act. I find her extremely annoying and cheesy, everything that she means to be serious and dramatic comes out funny and sub-par. Her character is a down right laugh and waste of film time. The character suddenly and out of character, jumps Granger without the slightest bit of a hint at attraction... just suddenly uses Granger as an over-sized and rather talkative dildo.With brings me to Granger, played by Dolph Lundgren.... yeah, he sounds like a really crappy impressionist of Sean Connery, her moves like a guy who's 70 and for someone who's character is former military sure doesn't have an movements or mannerisms that make the view believe that thought.This movie sucked.... was a waste of time and money and wasn't the slightest bit interesting, a complete waste of time and a real snooze fest. Uwe Boll you are a waste of air.
Jesus Christ, Really?? except for having at least one recognizable actor this film seems a lot like a straight to video lionsgate film. This is basically Blacknight(Martin Lawrence) with a little violence. Dolph has made his fair share of straight to video movies but this one is a special kind of suck. Dolph obviously is not keeping himself in shape either. This shows by the way he basically limps every time he walk or attempts to run. I'm thinking he and Steven Segall have the same agent because they both are totally out of shape but yet keep making bullshit straight to video or USA channel movies. Get back into shape you if you are going to make action films you jerks.
