    Pros: okay dokey

    Cons: okay dokey

    I rented this film because I was a total fan of Jeremy Irons, and don't get me wrong, I still am, but I don't think this was one of his best. Though Irons executed the role pretty well, I think the story plot was a bit out of place, and the g...raphics weren't all that great either. I personally don't think that such a great actor should be wasting his precious time doing films like that. But perhaps that's just me. So overall I would give this film three stars out of five and grade it at a big fat C. (Sorry Jeremy. It just really wasn't all that great.) If you wanna see Jeremy really in action and at his best you should instead go rent 'Die Hard With a Vengeance', 'Reversal of Fortune', or 'Stealing Beauty'. Read more Less

    Little Magic in this Dungeons & Dragons

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jul 15, 2003

    This DVD is loaded with goodies. Commentary, deleted scenes, and all you ever wanted to know about the actual game including some footage of Gary Gygax. Unfortunately, the movie itself is less than spectacular and even D&D fans won't find much ...to enjoy in it. The special effects are spectacular. The characters are somewhat interesting, but if you truly wanted to represent D&D it seems as though there should have been someone from every class from the original game. Marlan Wayans as "Snails" is the only thing that keeps this movie interesting. Jeremy Irons seems completely out of place in this movie as the over the top Profion. Maybe its the fact that his hair is too perfect. The main flaw in the movie is the story itself. This feels like it was written by someone who didn't know much about adventure, fantasy or D&D. Of all the great concepts, worlds, adventures and heros that have been created for the game, you think they had at least could have found something good to use. The whole idea of a divided mage aristocracy deciding how power should be handled among the masses isn't the greatest way to kick of this series. I found that to be a little too much in a movie that was not very serious. There are too many scenes with bumbling guards running into a bar and tripping over themselves. No one gets stabbed or cleaved or run through or anything. With a movie that has so many weapons there are bearly any interesting fight scenes. This movie seems over produced and under budgeted. They can't seem to make up their minds whether this should be a Xena wanna be episode or a serious fantasy film. There appears to be a lot of effert put into this film. And that is the most frustrating part because of what this film could have been. Read more Less

    Sadly Lacking

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Mar 26, 2003

    As a science fiction and fantasy fan, I was looking forward to this movie. As a Jeremy Irons fan, I was really looking forward to this movie. What I got was crap.Poorly written, poorly directed, and I'm sad to say, poorly acted, even by Jeremy. He...'s an Acadamy Award Winning actor that gave a performance which gave no crediblity to the character.The only thing I liked about this move was the end credits! Read more Less

    Great Special Effects.

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Sep 4, 2001

    Great special effects. One of the best dragons I have ever seen in a movie. They could have used a good cleric at the end.

    Well Worth it

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jul 29, 2001

    This is a pretty good movie a good cast, and story idea.. but they didn quite go all the way. They couldve made it a little longer and added some more sideplots in their. The main plot is good and effects are great but they forgot they created a whol...e new world the entire movie revovless arouond the main chaerectors and that takes away from the reality factor... but overall it is well worth a rent.. abd if you're into medievil times worth a buy Read more Less

    Fumble

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jul 15, 2001

    Good cast. Great idea. Great effects. What happened with the execution?…. The story line has no flow to it and some characters seem a bit awkward at times. Looks like the effectsdepartment got the bulk of the dough and the script writing team g...ot paid in fools gold. Not a good rental. Read more Less
