Audience Reviews for In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale

  • May 18, 2013
    In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale is yet another video game turned film by Uwe Boll. The cast is actually pretty good, and features Jason Statham, Ron Perlman, Leelee Sobieski, Claire Forlani, and Ray Liotta; but their performances are bland and lifeless. The only thing worst are the special effects, which are atrocious. And the score is mundane, capturing none of the adventure or wonder of a fantasy film. Cheaply made and uninspired, In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale is a dreadful piece of garbage.

    it was based on dungeon siege, the castle was identical so it was pretty good

    It's like a shittier version of Lord Of The Rings without the homosexual innuendos.
