Reign of Fire (2002)
A bad film suffering from adequate science fiction talent
Regretfully, this is a bad movie. I love science fiction. This film is obviously another attempt by film makers without science fiction credentials to make a science fiction film.
That said, I enjoyed the dragons. The special effects are good. The sound, however, is also bad. With a small loss of hearing that I have, I could not hear much of what was said between the mumbling of the actors and the balance of music and noise to voice.
All together, I rate this as a 2, one step from the pits!
By the Sword (1991)
A skillful movie with depth and moral lessons.
By the Sword has depth to it that I seldom see in film. It also displays a morality play, skillfully embedded in the story that make this one of my all time favorites. I recognize that By the Sword will not be for everyone. It was not made with the cookie cutter approach.
