"Another lame copy of every crappy sword-and-sorcery epic ever made."

"I would like to think that Uwe Boll is not a mentally-challenged individual. However, the incompetence of his movies speaks otherwise."

Brian Orndorf
1/4
"While it does seem entirely likely that prepubescent boys will dig the heck out of this,
In the Name of the King
ultimately comes off as a pale carbon-copy of the
Lord of the Rings
series."

"
In the Name of the King
would be irredeemable if not for its near-brilliant ability to give the viewer douche chills for 127 solid minutes."

"Easily lives down to what genre fans have come to recognize as the Boll standard."
One Guy's Opinion
Frank Swietek
2/4
"If this isn't Boll's best effort to date, it's better than his usual output. If he can continue to improve, his name may no longer be synonymous with a punch line."

Movies for the Masses
Joseph Proimakis
0/5
"Is it any surprise that this film wasn't screened for any critic, anywhere in the free world? But even I was unprepared for the level of suckage this movie produced."
Film School Rejects
Kevin Carr
0.5/4
"A major piece of crap. It shamelessly steals from J.R.R. Tolkien/Peter Jackson, but with none of the intelligence, heart and artistry."
Montreal Film Journal
Kevin N. Laforest
1/4
"Brevity is the soul of camp, and at close to two-and-a-half hours, Boll's film is just too exhausting to be fun."
TV Guide's Movie Guide
Maitland McDonagh
0.5/4
"Boll is back and as bad as ever."
Mark Reviews Movies
Mark Dujsik
0/5
"Fans looking to ridicule and laugh at the newest Boll adventure will be disappointed after the first 20 minutes. It was funny when it started, then it got boring. Too boring to even laugh at anymore."
Film Threat
Michael Ferraro
.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."
Slant Magazine
Nick Schager
1/5
"If Burt Reynolds supposedly punched PT Anderson in the nose for the crime of putting him in
Boogie Nights
, God only knows what he did to Uwe Boll for putting him in
Dungeon Siege.
"

Peter Sobczynski
1.5/5
"If imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, then Uwe Boll just spent 126 minutes telling Peter Jackson how thin, talented and gorgeous he is."
Cinematical
Scott Weinberg
2/10
"Like all Uwe Boll films, it is terrible. Sadly, it is perhaps not terrible enough."
