Look, this film is considered to be laughably bad. However it's really not. That's right, you heard me right. The flick is not nearly as bad as people are proclaiming. I found myself sitting back and enjoying the action scenes, and... Full review

En la misma línea que El Señor de los Anillos, solo que mas infantil. El final es malo, como que muy corrido. Las actuaciones son las mismas de esta clase de films, buena acción, entretenidas batallas, villano mula. Recomendable para ver... Full review

The movie was worth a rent. The visuals were not up to a high budget movie, but they made do. The monsters were not all that conniving. The write was way to modern. There were some good actors, but i think... Full review

This movie had great actors in it, the story was a little rushed but exciting none the less. The big problem is the composer of the score is absolutely tone deaf...if you know this baffoon, please tell him he sucks...like nails... Full review

The visuals were sloppy and all over the place like the director slapped the thing together and sent it to theaters. The acting was just awful--so many hilarious moments in this movie.... Full review

You would think with so many decent actors this movie would have some good acting in it, well it doesn't. The acting is lame, the story is jumpy and predictable. SAVE YOURSELF, DON'T WATCH THIS MOVIE!... Full review

It feels like a bad version of Lord Of The Rings. Same kind of magic creatures. But it is like a Roller Coaster Ride. You Watch a village burn for five minutes and the a walk in the woods and then... Full review

Dialogue is clear and well balanced in the mix, if a bit dull sounding, and the low frequencies are clean and extended with a good use of the LFE channel. Yet another bad film looks great on Blu-ray Disc. ... Full Review

Like actors in an amateur stage play, the large, mostly all-star - or has-been star - cast of In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale look, rather dazedly, to be playing dress-up. Jason Statham (as ever, the gruffly soft-spoken hero who can whip the bad guys) plays a simple farmer whose wife (Claire Forlani) is kidnapped and young son murdered by warrior-beasts called Krug. ...
