Product Description
DUNGEONS & DRAGONS-WRATH OF THE DRAGON GOD (DVD/WS
Amazon.com
Wrath of the Dragon God, the sequel to the unfortunate 2000 theatrical release Dungeons and Dragons, is a pleasant surprise in that it not only hews closer to the popular role-playing game that provides its source material, but it's also an enjoyable fantasy adventure with plenty of action and special effects. Longtime movie heel Bruce Payne, who played a second-string villain in the first film, returns here as the evil sorcerer Damodar, who uses a sinister magic orb to launch an attack against a kingdom; a brave but untested group of adventurers (all character types from the game) band together to fight Damodar and his legion of monsters. Gerry Lively, a veteran director of photography on numerous low-budget genre films, guides the proceedings with a capable hand, and the script wisely jettisons the aggravating humor of the previous film in favor of straightforward action and derring-do. --Paul Gaita

The second installment in this ongoing travesty has an even lower budget than the first. If you enjoy D&D (or were a fan in your youth) you will get more satisfaction from staring at the cover art for five minutes than any scene in the movie. Remember that kid in your D&D group who was always snort-laughing at his own lame jokes and spouting dorky ideas that made you cringe? Yeah. He wrote the script. Evidently some people have the idea that the more you love the game, the better you are at writing/directing a screenplay. This is not true. Another popular myth: if you truly love the game you will look past the flaws in any D&D movie. This is a campaign based game where each adventure has a beginning, middle, and end. It's tailor-made for the cinematic format! To the executives at Wizards of the Coast: Budget some money for a quality screenwriter because it doesn't matter how much you spend on visual effects; you can't polish a turd.
 Although it is low budget in some areas, it is still a very enjoyable experience. July 30, 2009

I enjoyed this movie which is what movie making is all about. A simple storyline and interesting characters add to the overall experience as well. Very few corners were cut in the special effects dept. The fighting sequences could have been staged better but overall I did buy this movie and therefore do rank it as a pretty good flick. The shipping was fast and well done. A happy customer.
Surprisingly good sequel April 27, 2009

I saw the original theatrical film, and it was a big disappointment for me. However, Wrath of the Dragon God does not disappoint. Solid performances by the cast and a *much* better script make for a much better film. Its weakness is in some the special effects, but given the budget, they did well. It is a pity that this script was not the original theatrical release, and I hope to see more by the same scriptwriters. Since others have done a great job of summarizing the film, I will only say that (1) it was great to see strong female characters contributing to a team effort, and (2) skip the commentary audio track.
Good for what it is April 25, 2009

im satisfied with this movie. It is much better then the first D&D movie and for being low budget the acting and quality isn't that bad.

I watched the original D&D movie with a grimace and haven't watched it since. So when I saw that this movie on tv, I was debating whether to switch it off, instead I watched it and was pleasantly surprised. It was a D&D movie, it had clerics and divine magic, something which was ignored by the first film. There were dungeon hacks and fights with creatures from the actual books. The acting wasn't grating and the cast clearly threw themselves into the plot with gusto.
The special effects aren't A class but they aren't puppets either. There are no huge continuity errors and the plot was fast paced, fun and contrary to some opinion exactly the same as a standard D&D adventure: Bunch of heroes sent to find orb so that town can be saved from evil, basic d&d plottage. Enjoyable for both D&D fans and those who aren't.
