Blunt as a weapon, roaring as a lion and hot as a tank of flaming gasoline. Reign of fire has no space for character construction, either back story or feelings. It's just humans dying and dragons roaring. Isn' that awesome!? Dude, it's Dungeons and dragons with balls and fire weapons. If you take that out, you can kiss bye bye to this wannabe epic production. This is a use and throw movie, fun as you see and easy to forget, but that can turn into a future cult movie as Outland became. Rob Bowman was the right yet wrong director to make this (I wonder what could had happened if Stephen Hopkins would took the director's seat) so he is an expert in monsters. Matthew McGonahey is the best one them all, he is cool, harsh, brutal and violent. Christian Bale is a weak boy who wasn't sure of what he was going to be in the future, and I prefer not to mention Scorupco. To finish with this: Reign of fire is a great trash movie, which you will enjoy a lot while you watch, and if you love monsters you will have it in your DVD preferences. Don't care about the performance quality, all goes for the flaming lizards.
