Dragon Wars: D-War

It is such a breathless, delirious stew, it's impossible not to be entertained, provided -- this is crucial -- you have a sense of humor.

When they decide to sic [those monsters] on downtown Los Angeles, the movie turns shockingly watchable. Until that sequence, there was no evidence that anybody involved with this laughable fantasy knew what he or she was doing.

The rampaging-monsters flick Dragon Wars loudly speaks the universal language of effects-laden mayhem. Unfortunately, it is also fluent in the laughable dialogue of a million bad fantasy flicks.

The only winners in Dragon Wars are the computer-imaging geeks who must have logged tons of overtime. The rest of the world is left scratching its head at a monster epic so dismal that it doesn't even register as a guilty pleasure.

Dragon Wars isn't just bad, it's an outright bomb, and the best thing that could happen is for the whole film to just slither back underneath the rock from which it nauseatingly came out from.

D-War is a complete waste of time that shouldn't be watched by anyone, for any reason.

It's the ultimate matinée film, and to me (as a non-Korean) it never seemed to try and make like it was anything else.

The film didn't promise anything more than it delivered.

DRAGON WARS knows it's dumb, and just has fun. It's my new guilty pleasure!
