    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Script development took over a year. In the end, Doug Taylor re-wrote 80% of the script because the original story was considered too similar to the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy.
    • Goofs
      When King Konreid, on horseback, addresses his troops in front of the castle, neither he nor his horse casts a shadow because of the poor compositing work.
    • Quotes

      General Backler: In your world, do you not kneel before your king?

      Farmer Daimon: In my world, the king's army is expected to protect the kingdom, not just the castle.

    • Alternate versions
      Director's Cut (available on DVD) is 34 minutes longer and includes 13 new scenes.
    • Connections
      Featured in Troldspejlet: Episode #40.9 (2008)
    • Soundtracks
      Carry the Blessed Home
      Performed by Blind Guardian

    Wow this was bad!
    OK, first off, all of the glowing, gushing reviews here were obviously (OBVIOUSLY) planted by someone doing PR for the film (which is shameful in and of itself). There is no way that anyone sane would think this movie was anything more than laughable tripe.

    I saw it at a preview, and have to say that I was expecting much more. I didn't realize that Ewe Boll was directing, otherwise I would have skipped it altogether (he should never be allowed near a camera, ever). However, I like nearly every star, enjoy the genre and have been a big fan of the video games for years now, so I figured that this would be worth seeing (nothing will ever compare to LOTR, but it sounded promising).

    So yeah, there's not much I can say that hasn't been said here already. Horrible dialog, two-dimensional characters, lousy cinematography, cheesy effects and a plot which is nearly impossible to care about makes this one worth skipping.

    Seriously, don't pay to see this. It will only encourage them to give Ewe more projects.
