CommentsXp Best movie ever!
Livestonth I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible
Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
Eric Stevenson This movie has a higher rating than "Simon Sez" and I really don't think it deserves that. This movie is just so dumb and pitiful. I admit to never having played Dungeons And Dragons, so I can't judge as to whether or not it's a good representation of it. Movies based on video games are usually bad. The same can be said for Tabletop RPGs. From what I can guess, this was a poor representation.Let's hope they don't make a Warhammer 40K movie. This movie has some of the most annoying characters I've seen in a long time and as I just saw "Simon Sez", that's really saying something. There's this guy named Snails played by one of the Waylon brothers. He's extremely annoying, but he's sadly not the only character. There's this weird dwarf that shows up and I'm thinking, "No, please don't make him a main character!". Turns out they did.The CGI was absolutely horrendous. Everything looked fake and this only came out a year after "The Phantom Menace". Say what you will about that movie, at least its visuals hold up. It seems like they did something right when Snails died. It was bold of them to kill off a main character. And wouldn't you know it, they even undo that at the end. *
Miles Prawl I made this account specifically to review this movie. This is by an extremely wide margin the absolute worst movie I have EVER seen. I really didn't think it was possible to make a movie this horrible. I happened to come across it while surfing cable channels. It says the estimated budget was 45 million. There is absolutely no way even 1/8th of that money was used in the creation of this joke of a film. First of all, and most importantly, the special effects are some of the worst I've ever seen. That is pitiful with such a large budget. The acting not only is horrendous, but I believe even film students in college could do better. The horrendous dialogue is mostly due to the script. Also, the camera angles are absolutely horrible and the sets are very poorly made. It looks like an amateur shot this film. Even myself, a person with no camera training, could do a better job of creating movie-worthy camera angles. I am at a total loss trying to figure out how a movie with a 45 million dollar budget could be so poorly done. Oh...and the props are the worst I've ever seen in a movie. The weapons look like cheap plastic imitations. This film is a complete joke. If you want my opinion, it's so bad that it makes it appear as though the film makers pocketed the 45 million and didn't spend more than $5 on the movie. The ONLY reason I recommend watching this movie is because it will forever change your perception of what defines a bad movie, because if there was EVER a movie that deserved a 1/10 and the title of being horrendous and horrible, this is that movie. It is just plain sad. It's like they purposely attempted to make the absolute worst, unbelievably bad and fake looking (special effects and props) movie of all time. My words do not accurately describe how horrible every aspect of this movie is. Man oh man.....
Marc Hemingway If you watch this film wanting it to be a film of the D&D game, you'll be upset. It's as close to the game as the Dungeons & Dragons cartoon ever was, so... Not very. If you watch it as a film, as a nice easy Sunday afternoon film, you'll like it. I actually love it. Reading the other reviews on here, I'd be put off from watching it but be your own dragon. It's got Richard O Brian in it for chuffs sake! That brings it up at least 2 stars! Don't put too much thought into the plot (sorta like a more modern Hawk The Slayer) and you'll laugh along with the comedy, get caught up in the action, boo the pantomime villain and go 'awwww' when the side kick gets killed. Give it a chance.
tcrosby396 Though not a good movie as the acting is hammy, the characters somewhat stereotyped or annoying but I find this movie is a perfect example of an actual game of D&D where people are role playing, yes the script is terrible but so are most attempts at conversation between PC's and NPC's in a D&D game, yes some jokes don't work or are obvious what's going to happen, but that happens around the table, yes it blatantly rips some scenes from other movies, yet again speaking as both a game master and a player that happens all the time in D&D games and yes, the villains are ridiculous and immensely incompetent but again that happens all the time in actual D&D games. I choose to view the movie in one of two ways, either as a cheesy movie to laugh at with friends, or to view it as the minds eye of a bunch of people around a table playing dungeons and dragons. Yes it's by no means a good film, but for me it falls in the "So bad it's good" category with the above relations to an average d&d game as a pleasant side note.
