In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale Reviews

I would never recommend this film to anyone who was going to take it seriously. [Full Review in Spanish]

| Apr 16, 2019

It's as if someone had thrown a whole lot of money at Ed Wood and let him go wild, minus the angora.

A fantasy class-D story starring talented actors at their worst moment. [Full review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 2/4 | May 8, 2017

Don't go for the campy laughs; there are none.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Nov 17, 2011

Don't waste your time.

Will any other movie ever be as amazing as this one?

| Original Score: 1/5 | Apr 4, 2011

LOTR copycat is so bad it's good -- for laughs.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Dec 31, 2010

It's not bad enough to warrant burning copies of, rather it'll sit on the back of video store shelves for the rest of its time and that's where it should stay.

If you can appreciate bad cinema, than I recommend it, but anyone that is looking to watch an actual good movie, avoid like the plague!

I wouldn't change a thing. It's been a while since I've seen Hollywood filmmaking this unsafe and unhinged.

| Apr 17, 2008

Why in the world would I give a terrible, terrible move 1 star?Well, how can I call a film worthless when it's so awful that it provides unintended laughs?

Not only is Dungeon Siege the best film of Uwe Boll's career, but it's also guaranteed not to be the worst one released in its year.

| Original Score: 1.5/5 | Jan 22, 2008

Only Uwe Boll would assume that the moviegoing public craved a trashy Lord of the Rings rip-off starring Burt Reynolds and Matthew Lillard, and only he could then manage to make such a potentially riotous endeavor so humorless.

| Original Score: .5/4 | Jan 20, 2008

Uwe Boll uses his biggest budget ever to produce a cheap knockoff of LOTR, complete with an Orc-like army of beasts called Krug, elfin woodland beings, and a wizard-esque magus played by John Rhys-Davies, but without a comprehensible plot.

| Jan 18, 2008

...like a Florida dinner theater production of The Lord of the Rings...

| Original Score: 1/5 | Jan 17, 2008

When King Burt Reynolds says, 'What kind of joke do the gods play on me?,' we feel the pain of a downslide that took him from No. 1 box-office star to appearing in an Uwe Boll schlockfest.

This Lord of the Rings wannabe gives fantasy adventures a bad name.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Jan 16, 2008

Just where this kingdom is I don't know, but since the king of the title is played by Burt Reynolds, I'm guessing it's the Lost Continent of Atlanta.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Jan 15, 2008

Boll is in fact fascinating - largely because his movies assume their audiences exist in an alternate dimension of human experience.

Full Review | Jan 15, 2008

Like all Uwe Boll films, it is terrible. Sadly, it is perhaps not terrible enough.

| Original Score: 2/10 | Jan 14, 2008
