In The Name Of The King 2: Two Worlds [HD]

In the Name of the King 2 is a Wisecrackin' Good Time!
I'd agree with the other reviewers that said that Dolph really holds this film together. Probably more than anything else, Dolph Lundgren is the reason I bought this film before seeing it. Dolph's performance does not disappoint. He's always been a larger than life presence on screen, and this film is no exception. He's also smart enough to not take the material too seriously and, therefore, have a good time with it. His smart-aleck delivery of many of his lines is right on and often very funny, intentionally so.

The second reason I was curious about this film is because of the director, Uwe Boll. Uwe's career is much maligned, that's no secret. But, Uwe's films have a lot more going for them than people give them credit for. First of all, is Boll's uncanny ability to assemble some of most interesting casts that I've ever seen put together. He hasn't just done this once; he does it consistently. Secondly, Boll's films are always well photographed. They always look great,...

Campy B-movie fun
After reading a reviewer with "Hated the first, and this one was worse!" in the title and "This one made the first one look great" in said reviews body of text, I decided I would take a go at reviewing this peice with some theme of coherance.
Upon rating movies, many questions must be asked. Is it comparitive, and to what? The Transformers Trilogy looks like the godfather or LOTR trilogy in comparison to the Troll or evil bong trilogy. So do you look to quality of scripting, camera shots, pacing and acting etc? Or do you rate on pure entertainment value, IE how much you like it? My awnser is a mixture of all 3.

For starters, this is a movie shot on a $7.5 million dollar budget, independantly financed straight to DVD, and belonging to the fantasy action adventure genre. It contains a dragon. Similar in those terms is Eragon, a $100 million movie(that sucked). My expectations are low.

This film, directed by the infamous Uwe Boll, whos work ranges from solid,...

Dolph made it watchable
Everyone is bashing this movie mainly because they don't like uwe boll. I only watched this because of Dolph. Not the best or worst movie i've watched but Dolph's punch lines made me laugh. If your a fan of Dolph its worth watching. It only had a budget of 7 million so what do people expect production wise. My only complaint is the camera work...a little to unsteady at times. Leave reality behind for 90 minutes and watch it for what it is.
