Ring of the Nibelungs Audience Reviews

Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
Inadvands Boring, over-political, tech fuzed mess
HeadlinesExotic Boring
Aspen Orson There is definitely an excellent idea hidden in the background of the film. Unfortunately, it's difficult to find it.
Myriam Nys Sadly, the movie does not wholly succeed : it would like to be a window on a far distant, far different time (mostly pre-Christian or not- Christian), but both its knowledge and its imagination fall short. When and where it tries to fill the gaps, it veers too much in the direction of, say, renaissance fairs, cosplay or sword and sorcery. On the plus side, this is a pleasantly clear and understandable introduction to the Nibelungen saga. It whets the appetite and invites the viewers to go on their own voyage of discovery into a world of poetry, myth and history. It also works on its own merits, as a reflection on the difference between real accomplishment and genuine merit on the one hand and pretend heroics on the other hand. It's also a pretty watchable tale of love, treachery and calculation. (By the way, you're not human if you don't want to kick Kriemhilde in the behind.)The music, I suppose, isn't too bad, but it is used too liberally. There are things in our world which have a deeply evocative sound of their own - such as, for instance, a sailing ship moving at considerable speed or a wood filled with eager hunters and hounds - and it's both annoying and redundant to cover such sounds with layers of music.

Ring of the Nibelungs is starring Kristanna Loken (Terminator 3) and Benno Fürmann (Speed Racer) and i feel like it's an underrated movie about dragons and swords and other stuff of that time it's not Lord of the Rings in case you want to know and it doesn't have a lot of action but it's entertaining because you have interesting characters, good action and even some alright cgi because this is a TV Movie and not a film that came out on theaters and if you watch it you will not be disappointed.
maz4u61 This is an excellent movie. It has another name too. Dark Kingdom: Dragon King. And If you are the type of guy who enjoys Lord of the ring type movies with sword fight and magic. You will love it. The story line is so well narrated with twist and turn. The acting is very well done in the movie. Loved k Loken. She has done her role superbly. The movie has a decent pace and does not let one feel bored or dragged into it. AS i said, you will love if if you enjoys time period movies. In search of good movie, i started watching movies from different countries and bump to this one. The movie has medieval touch. It If n e one knows similar movie to this one, please reply.
derin_halo best movie ever the movie really touched me. Never saw such awesome and beautiful movie especially about brunhilde that see had to watch her love marrying some other girl i liked there was a lot of science fiction in the movie a lot of action a big story and it was a beautiful love movie watch out here comes a spoiler!!!!!!!!!but i hated so much that siegfried had to die and siegfried couldn't remember brunhilde it broke my heart that they couldn't be together and alive so the ending actually f*cked up the movie for me i would of been so happy if that bad guy missed the spear and siegfried remembered he loves brunhilde:) sorry for the bad language
