yeah, boll needs to stick to the present

For a movie that really had nothing to say, it talked way to much; possibly the worst dialogue ever. Of course, even at its worst, there was still a league of miscast stars and those weird fairy chop kicks to chuckle at (oh, I'm jumping, my foot is raised, I slice your face, I'm super awesome, tee-hee, fly). The scenery is actually pretty nice though :) P.S: Forget Ed Wood, it's Uwe Boll vs. Leigh Scott now.

Almost worth watching for the train-wreck aspect. Except you put yourself at risk because your intestines may at any moment move up into your chest and make a noose around your heart and then silently kill you out of pity.

Enthrallingly poor dialogue. Overwrought music blaring constantly. Combat scenes composed irresponsibly enough to warrant Boll time in a pillory. I cannot recommend this movie highly enough.

I only watched about 40 minutes of this as a sort of Boll Experiment, having never watched one of his films before, but quickly came to the same conclusion as anyone with a brain would: Uwe Boll is a fucking retard.

The film's hero is a farmer creatively named "Farmer". I kid you not. Must have taken them all night to think that name up.

1.filmed in the 17th century but they had matrix trenchcoats....2.one part of the movie burt reynolds was dying his wig was falling off...3.matthew lost his accent in two scenes...this movie is horrible..even for Uwe Boll...he must think he is Lemel...

So bad its funny. How did Uwe Boll get these people to do this?

Perlman, Rhys-Davies and Reynolds?! What in God's name... no wait. This has nothing to do with God. This is 'Uwe Boll makes Lord of the Rings', when he should be asking himself if its time to just give up on this whole directing thing. Uwe's 'Ed Wood - only evil' persona makes him impossible to truly hate, but the same simply cannot be said about his movies. Unforgivably dull.

I was generous with this rating, only due to the Blind Guardian and Hammerfall tracks that ran through the end credits. Sadly the end credits were the best part of this movie and that's coming from someone who's very tolerant of this genre.

It's like Uwe Boll watched LOTR, got a boner and said "I can do this!" then failed miserably. My first Boll and hopefully the last. Damn you Streusand for making me watch this!!

The film director knows his job, the scenes are not bad, but not extraordinary too and the repetition of battle scenes becomes boring. The scenarist know his job too, but the scenario is not extraordinary too. We are far from Z series, but it's clearly a B movie. It takes some elements from the Lord of the Ring, from the chinese action movies too and from other films. It's not a bad movie, but it suffers cruelly of a lack of genius !

Why do I even waste the time... - How does Boll get those actors?

So bad I didnt watch it all.

By far the best Boll movie. I was actually entertained--albeit mostly by stuff that wasn't intended to be all that entertaining--and I had a heckuva time being surprised by all the name actors Boll had managed to lure into his web.

Amazingly boring. My guess is that it was deliberately bad.

Several good battles.

So. Boring. At least I can find something entertaining in other Uwe Boll films, in the ridiculous acting, pointless, meandering scenes, and horrid production values. This movie has the nerve to be one of his "better" productions - by which I mean, there's none of that *interestingly* bad stuff in it. It's just... bad.

I don't even know...

"Only Uwe Boll would assume that the moviegoing public craved a trashy Lord of the Rings rip-off starring Burt Reynolds and Matthew Lillard, and only he could then manage to make such a potentially riotous endeavor so humorless." - Nick Schager

allahim o muzikler neydi oyle kabus gibi filmin olmayan konusuna dahi odaklanamadim kafam sisti

more entertaining than half of the movies i saw last year

hahahahahaha

AAAhhh. THis movie didn't show the director on the box, so it should have been a big red flag, but I rented it anyway. Big mistake. Unbelievable how they suckered some 'established' actors to play in this movie. It's uterly crap. It looked like Ray Liotta had some fun with his role, but the others just grabbed the money and run I guess. Stay away from this, if you see this DVD somewhere, burn it. You'll be doing everyone a favour.

Why the hell was Ron Perlman and Jason Statham in this turd, seriously what shady ass shit did they get into?

worst movie i have ever seen . . . I can't believe jason statham did this movie. what a load of rubbish.

Up until now "the best" Uwe Boll has produced... I can only recommend to read all my fellow's mini-reviews! And this "director" is so convinced that he does great movies...

Why... the FUCK did all these actors sign on the work on this?! Why? Well, no matter. They can't save this trainwreck of an overlong, wanna-blow-your-own-brains-out boring piece of Boll. Avoid.

In the Name of the King may be an objectively bad movie, and is a resounding failure, it's still easy to see several redeeming qualities in it. For one, the movie is very funny, mostly due to its poor overacting and terrible script, on the other hand the movie looks really good; it's shot with that same epic feel you got out of The Lord of the Rings. However good that may be, that is probably the funniest part about this movie, how insanely redundant it is of the LOTR series. It's no good.

The only difference between this and LOTR(apart from the quality) is the size of John Rhys-Davies

the best movie uwe boll has ever made, but it still manages to be a bad movie, even the hordes of amazing actors couldnt make up for the stench of uwe boll. one more thing the bad guys look like puddies from power rangers, and that is not a good thing.

No comment.

Jesus Christ this was painful. Uwe Boll should just give up.
