Whoever made the trailer deserves a raise. I actually voluntarily watched this. Two years late, I've still never forgiven myself.

A superb parody of cheap-ass, moronic, ugly sfx laden monster/disaster movies. What... what do you mea-.. not a parody? Are you sure? With the acting so terrible and the script so atrocious, I assumed... Oh, wow. Just.. wow.

Starts off with promising Z-grade fun (how can you not love overlong flashbacks within flashbacks), but then quickly devolves into messy and boring sub-SciFi Channel crap.

The story is terrible, hilariously contrived with umpteen flashbacks and back to back "it was just a dream" moments but it's all just a weak excuse for serpents, dragons and magic knights to have an all out war against modern military in an urban setting and it does a pretty entertaining job of that. Pure brainless action movie fun.

The most expensive South Korean film ever made falls on its backside the moment actor Robert Forster has to deliver exposition that is 1) wooden and 2) about a deeply unoriginal mythology for the film. Most of it consists of bland protagonists running away from a giant, unappealing CGI snake and a forced story about following one's destiny (frankly the concept of destiny can go fuck itself if it makes people act like these paper-thin characters do). Just avoid it, it's not worth it.

I was in the mood to watch a really bad movie, and this did not disappoint! Fun concept, but they had to lay waaaaay too much pipe to get the backstory out. The dialogue is suitably atrocious, but it sometimes gets covered by the bad sound mix. Behr & Robinson are competent actors, but I'm pretty sure even they knew how bad it was (that or the director told everyone to phone it in with cheesy readings.)

If you know what RiffTrax are, watch this with RiffTrax. Hilarious. "That must be a pretty serious injury, he wasn't able to shake it off like that point blank gun shot wound." Instant classic. Actually even without the rifftrax, this is pretty hilariously bad. Like really bad. Really really bad.

First of all, director does not know the basics of the movie making: story jerks and sound is time to time unhearable. CGI is odd combination of cheesy and excellent. This piece is really made for kids. Amanda Brooks is hot, but she hardly talks in her part. I don't want to say anything about the story.

Should have been called "Running from the Giant Snake" because that's what the majority of this film is. A giant snake, not a dragon. Amazingly, it contains EVEN LESS DRAGONS than Reign of Fire.

Sheer garbage. There is nothing postive I can say about the film except that the CGI isn't completely terrible. Except for that, the film is atrocious. The story is retarded, it has a flashback within a flashback within a flashback (seriously), the action scenes feel like they're out of Power Rangers with a simply larger budget and the dialog is about on par with the new Star Wars films. Awful film, not so bad it's good, just plain awful.

That 25 isn't for how good the movie was, cause that would have made it a ZERO. The 25 is for one of the best times I've ever had with my friend watching this movie. We laughed the entire time! The movie starts out in a flashback of a flashback of a flashback. This lasted for a half hour and me and my friend completely gave up on the plot. From that point we just laughed at how rediculous this was. The dragon battles were just ok. Make sure you watch this with a friend, being drunk would help.

As you'd expect Dragon Wars is a cheesy and brainless action film, focusing on a giant serpent creature despite the title. Most of the action involves running away from the serpent monster, which then proceeds to destroy many cars and buildings. The plotline is pretty much lost amidst the CGI effects which are for the mostpart surprisingly good. There's niggles here and there though, like forgetting to animate in a troop of soldiers and the dodgy looking choppers. Watchable and not overly bad.
