Rating:  - One of the better dragon movies ever made.
Not cheap or a so called B movie as some reviewers have claimed. In fact the film totes some of the most realistic of all CGI creature special effects. It is a bit of a testosterone fueled post apocalyptic dragon slaying film. Matthew McConaughey really shines here in his wild character portrayal. It is an entertaining film overall, and a well done and creative peice of science-fiction. In terms of dragon movies, Its in my top 3 being 1981's Dragonslayer, 1996's Dragonheart and 2002's Reign Of Fire. Good dragon movies are not easy to make and many are plagued with a fake or cheesy tinge. Reign Of Fire is pretty good quality.
Rating: - Good Cast-Interesting Movie
Reign of Fire brings to the screen the unlikely scenario that ash-eating dragons will take over the world and humanity will become near extinct as a result.
It is the year 2020 and an isolated community in England trying to survive in the dragon dominated world is visited by an American military force bound on bringing an end to the reign of reptiles...
Don't look for the movie to make any sense; it doesn't.
Christian Bale, Matthew McConaughey, Gerard Butler, Alexander Siddig (from Star Trek DS9!), the lovely Izabella Scorupco, and the rest of the cast carry out their performances well though the acting is nothing extraordinary.
The setting, the plot, the dialogues, the special effects, and the music are all good.
In a nutshell, it's probably not a movie you would want to add to your collection, but it will provide for an evening's entertainment. 3.5 Stars
Rating:  - Good movie, simple plot.

Rating: - I LIKE>>>>
This movie was totally missed at the movies or something.....I watch it alot. The special effects are great. The story line is great, the men are handsome and there is a bit of a love thing going on too. Matthew MCConaughay was almost unrecongnizable ! I would have like the plot to be developed out a bit more. I wanted the movie to be longer. But its a cool concept and definately not cheezy CGI. I like !
Rating:  - GREAT MOVIE, GOOD HD TRANSFER
