Product Description Five champions of Ismir must fight the sorcerer Damodar and his evil minions before they awaken the sleeping black dragon which will destroy the kingd
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

Perfect if you have played D&D or like it. August 10, 2010 Uvula25 Ah yes I finaly get to unleash my inner nerd while watching this movie. This movie show what a game of dungeons and dragons would be like. There are all the elements to a perfect adventure. Well most of this movie is funny only if you have played D&D (any edition)because of game refernces and such, however that being said some of the movie is easy for the average person to watch and understand just in general. The graphic/special FX were decent and played together nicely with the whole plot. I found the theif, the barbarian, and the cleric to be my favorite charaters. as for the service, The product arrived quickly and without any damage. It also played without skipping. Overall this was a good buy (and for only like 6 bucks including shipping).
Great sequel May 21, 2010 Barry Steenbergh 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Don't fore go this movie on the basis of the first. As other people said this one was MUCH better. For sure it could have been better in parts, but overall it was very good. Quite a bit of humor in it and it stayed a lot more true to the spirit of the D&D game. Highly recommended.
Please stop already. August 28, 2009 P Trooper 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
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 M. DelaPena (Tampa, florida United States) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
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 E. Lindsley 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
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.
