In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale, also known as Dungeon Siege: In the Name of the King or simply In the Name of the King, is a 2007 German-American action-fantasy film directed by Uwe Boll and starring Jason Statham, Claire Forlani, Leelee Sobieski, John Rhys-Davies, Ron Perlman and Ray Liotta.
It is inspired by the Dungeon Siege video game series. The English-language film was an international (German, American, and Canadian) co-production and filmed in Canada. It premiered at the Brussels Festival of Fantastic Films in April 2007 and was released in theatres in November 2007.
Upon its release, the film was a major critical and commercial failure, receiving overwhelmingly negative reviews from critics and grossing $13.1 million against a budget of $60 million.
This is a bad movie. No meh,I dont like it. Not low budget weak camera work and bad actors weak movie. It is pure bad movie making. Stupid, boring, dumbifiyingly bad movie. It has no redeeming value. It must be around 20 (ok 15) years I watched that movie and I still get angry at it. Watching it with the TV off would have been a better use of my time. Edit: oh crap I thought I was clicking on a critic video. It’s the whole movie? https://youtu.be/PLOPygVcaVE?si=w7rcjmZjbhhaS60e here a 10h video of paint drying that would 5x longer yet less of a waste of your time than watching this film.
You could say much the same about any of the crap Uwe Boll made. It was like he was trying to make them terrible on purpose
he’s like a reverse king midas
Everything he touches turns to turds
Haha, I did warn you all in the description, but they can’t all be great. Maybe someone will learn about movie making by watching this? (What not to do…)
Thank you for saving me a click, and my time. The OP had me tempted to watch this sometime
Stop it! 🤣😂🤣 You’re killing me!! 🤣😂🤣 Great review! Your anger is hilarious!
