Arnoud Meulendijks Underestimated movie. I would not call this a b-movie like some do. Okay, some of the acting could be better and there are certainly plot holes but the story is quite original, the movie is very exciting to watch and it has the most realistic and impressive dragon ever! (Smaug eat your hart out). If you love dragons, you have got to see this.

Paul Raymond I loved the film i would watch any time there are a few things they could have done a little better like more dragon fights shown us a bit about how quin got on after his mum was killed and as he came to be at that castle and where he is and little more.but over all the dragons were good realistic well if they were real or not once apon a time the visuals how the country has be devastated withe all the burnt down buildings showing there hardship trying to survive all in all i loved it.Don't know why there are those out there who say absurd things with whats wrong with it its a film not real life its a good film about dragons.

manjodude Although I expected more thrilling action, especially in the climax scenes, Reign of Fire is still engaging. And to see Mathew Mcconaughey, Christian Bale and Gerard Butler in one frame is like wow! The movie has an ashen look from start to end, probably the result of the nuclear explosions that was futile against destroying the dragon species completely. The performances are good from the entire cast and also the effects are realistic enough. Would I recommend it? No, because I felt disappointed with the final action scenes. Watchable for the acting(especially Mathew in a badass character) and some of the dragon encounters.

bernardbrookes-1 This film is great, I have watched numerous times and it is always good value.What is so good is seeing the emergence of Christian Bale (pre Batman) as being able to hold and command a leading role. He had done so previously but this was his first action role and this then leads on to his future.However, it is Matthew McConaughey who commands and elicits most interest in the film. I really do believe that it is this film that began his renaissance. It proved he could act and could also do gritty roles.This is a seminal film for both actors, great work and good for their future prospects.
