It's as if someone had thrown a whole lot of money at Ed Wood and let him go wild, minus the angora.

LOTR copycat is so bad it's good -- for laughs.

It's not bad enough to warrant burning copies of, rather it'll sit on the back of video store shelves for the rest of its time and that's where it should stay.

If you can appreciate bad cinema, than I recommend it, but anyone that is looking to watch an actual good movie, avoid like the plague!

I wouldn't change a thing. It's been a while since I've seen Hollywood filmmaking this unsafe and unhinged.

Why in the world would I give a terrible, terrible move 1 star?Well, how can I call a film worthless when it's so awful that it provides unintended laughs?

Not only is Dungeon Siege the best film of Uwe Boll's career, but it's also guaranteed not to be the worst one released in its year.

Nick Schager Slant Magazine Jan 20, 2008 .5/4
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.

Annlee Ellingson Boxoffice Magazine Jan 18, 2008
Uwe Boll uses his biggest budget ever to produce a cheap knockoff of LOTR, complete with an Orc-like army of beasts called Krug, elfin woodland beings, and a wizard-esque magus played by John Rhys-Davies, but without a comprehensible plot.

...like a Florida dinner theater production of The Lord of the Rings...

When King Burt Reynolds says, 'What kind of joke do the gods play on me?,' we feel the pain of a downslide that took him from No. 1 box-office star to appearing in an Uwe Boll schlockfest.

This Lord of the Rings wannabe gives fantasy adventures a bad name.

Ken Hanke Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) Jan 15, 2008 1/5
Just where this kingdom is I don't know, but since the king of the title is played by Burt Reynolds, I'm guessing it's the Lost Continent of Atlanta.

Boll is in fact fascinating - largely because his movies assume their audiences exist in an alternate dimension of human experience.

Like all Uwe Boll films, it is terrible. Sadly, it is perhaps not terrible enough.
