Reviews for In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale
I wouldn't change a thing. It's been a while since I've seen Hollywood filmmaking this unsafe and unhinged.

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?
02/24/08
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.
01/22/08
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.
01/20/08
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.
01/18/08
...like a Florida dinner theater production of The Lord of the Rings...
01/17/08
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.
01/16/08
This Lord of the Rings wannabe gives fantasy adventures a bad name.
01/16/08
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.
01/15/08
Boll is in fact fascinating - largely because his movies assume their audiences exist in an alternate dimension of human experience.
01/15/08
Like all Uwe Boll films, it is terrible. Sadly, it is perhaps not terrible enough.
01/14/08
Part of (the) sizable budget must have been spent on a medieval era cosmetic dental plan. I've never seen so many perfectly straight sparkling pearly whites in a time of brutes and hand-to-hand brutality.
01/14/08
Offers scenic locations, some passable special effects, a couple of large-scale battles, and an exceptionally incongruous cast ill-served by feeble scripting and indifferent direction.
01/14/08
A magnum dopus so utterly inept that it somehow comes off as perversely admirable. The other two people at Friday's matinee seemed to enjoy it, too.
01/14/08
Brevity is the soul of camp, and at close to two-and-a-half hours, Boll's film is just too exhausting to be fun.
01/14/08
The director, Uwe Boll, remains committed to long, dull, mediocre action films. His tenacity is a virtue.
01/14/08
Top CriticIf this isn't Boll's best effort to date, it's better than his usual output. If he can continue to improve, his name may no longer be synonymous with a punch line.
01/14/08
Top CriticLike 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.
01/14/08
Top CriticUwe Boll isn't the worst director in the world, but In the Name of the King might be more enjoyable if he were.
