From Amazon.com

Wrath of the Dragon God, the sequel to the unfortunate 2000 theatrical release Dungeons and Dragons, is a pleasant surprise in that it not only hews closer to the popular role-playing game that provides its source material, but it's also an enjoyable fantasy adventure with plenty of action and special effects. Longtime movie heel Bruce Payne, who played a second-string villain in the first film, returns here as the evil sorcerer Damodar, who uses a sinister magic orb to launch an attack against a kingdom; a brave but untested group of adventurers (all character types from the game) band together to fight Damodar and his legion of monsters. Gerry Lively, a veteran director of photography on numerous low-budget genre films, guides the proceedings with a capable hand, and the script wisely jettisons the aggravating humor of the previous film in favor of straightforward action and derring-do. --Paul Gaita


Review

Filled to the brim with references to the role-playing handbooks of old, Dungeons & Dragons: Wrath of the Dragon God tries to suck up to the series' hardcore fans, but fails to improve much on its dreadful predecessor. While gone is the slapdash mix of physical comedy and unbearable overacting, the filmmakers still settle for second-rate fantasy that looks, feels, and sounds every bit the cheap production that it is. Gaming fans might delight at the referenced spells and goofy half-orcs that populate the film, but they'd be fooling themselves into thinking that this cinematic junk is anything other than a big, stinking CG-laden turd filmed in Lithuania -- apparently the new capitol of budget fantasy filmmaking. Sure, it may not have Jeremy Irons at his most out-of-control lunacy, but while that supplied much of the original's kitschy fun, there's little in this installment that warrants a viewing from anyone other than socially awkward individuals who pray for horrible computer graphics to be added into their own fantasy world of rubber swords and table-cloth cloaks. ~ Jeremy Wheeler, All Movie Guide

5.0étoiles sur 5 Excellent, Avril 4 2006
Par Un client
A film that can warm the hearts of many D&D fans. This is excellent realization of the game onto the silver screen. As a work of film, it suffers from a comparision with the film with a much higher budget and established mythology - LOTR. But, as a work of independent fantasy, it certainly ranks very high. True, there are flaws but forget the bad taste that the first film left in your mouth. This is the D&D film worth your while. There are plenty of Easter Eggs for the observant and sometimes they clunk you on the head but others are more discreet. Enjoy Lux, as a Barbarian is meant to look like, sadly Mages don't get a high profile as the first film.

2.0étoiles sur 5 Sputtering Wrath, Jui 5 2009

(TOP 10 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
Let's face it -- when you're making a sequel to one of the worst movies ever made, there are only so many ways you can get it wrong.

And "Dungeons and Dragons - Wrath of the Dragon God" is nowhere near that level -- it makes a genuine effort to be a passable fantasy-quest movie. Unfortunately it's too short to make the characters come alive, and the decent quest-for-magical-object-of-impending-doom comes completely unraveled in the last twenty minutes. Still, it's no "In the Name of the King."

Former knight Berek (Mark Dymond) and his mage wife Melora (Clemency Burton-Hill) learn that the dragon-god Falazure is waking in his mountain prison, where the ancient Turanian mages stuck him. This is because the evil Damodar has captured the orb that contains Falazure's power, and is waking the dragon to ruin the entire world. And he's turning Melora into a zombie (don't ask me how).

With only a matter of days before Falazure wakes, the king appoints Berek the head of a small team that follows the usual pattern -- the elf wizard Ormaline (Lucy Gaskell), berserker barbarian Lux (Ellie Chidzey), cleric Dorian (Steven Elder) and thief Nim (Tim Stern). They have to infiltrate Damodar's fortress of evilness and steal the orb -- but the only way to locate it is through bandits, a Lich, an ice-spewing dragon, lethal traps and so on and so forth...

I will admit that "Dungeons and Dragons - Wrath of the Dragon God" has open affection for D&D, and clearly is the work of a D&D fan -- lots of shout-outs and homages to places, people and situations that come from the role-playing games, among other things. It's kind of likable in its earnest attempt to, if not make an epic classic fantasy movie, then at least make a movie worth watching.

That said, the story itself is a mess. The first two-thirds are very slow, with spurts of awkward sword-fighting, cheeze-galore dialogue ("The forces of evil hear the call of the orb... they wait to pick the rotting dead carcass of Ismer!"), and random plot twists (let's escape ghosts on a RAFT!). The entire quest is a series of traps, tricks and near-disasters, usually handled via a tool or ability that the heroes didn't display five minutes ago.

And in the last stretch the plot completely unravels, leading to a climax with a lot of bad dragon-related CGI, dozens of artfully posed dead bodies, and a literal deus ex machina. In short, the entire plot feels like it was made up along the way -- especially since seemingly-important items (like the "smite" ring) don't serve any plot purpose at all.

The characters are a little better, mainly because the actors are clearly trying so hard -- especially the wonderfully dry-witted Stern and the wholehearted woman-warrior Chidzey, who sadly gets some of the worst dialogue ("Come, villainy. Death awaits you"). Unfortunately the characterization is spotty and localized (including a horribly strained "sorry I killed your brother and stuff" conversation).

The weirdest part is what happens to half the cast -- one expires early on doing something stupid, having had zero impact on the plot. And two others are left in critical condition and... that's it. We never hear about them again.

"Dungeons and Dragons- Wrath of the Dragon God" has the dubious honor of being a made-for-TV sequel better than its predecessor, and it's amusing in a kitschy turn-your-brain-off low-budget manner. But those hoping for solid characterization and plotting better check elsewhere.

The acting is as bad as the story is dull and pointless, and all they do is talk, talk, talk; the special effects are third rate!!!
AVOID at any cost!!
