Profile of Dungeons & Dragons

Dungeons & Dragons can be described as stylized and suspenseful. The plot revolves around a master villain, curses, spells and rituals, and supernatural abilities. Its comic aspect comes from campy humor. Dungeons & Dragons's main genres are adventure, fantasy, and action. In approach, it is fantastical and serious. It takes place in the middle ages. Dungeons & Dragons is derived from a video game. It is well suited for kids, a family outing, and teens.

Summary of Dungeons & Dragons

In the mystical land of Izmer, a class of Mages rule by means of magic and otherworldly powers. One Mage, Profion (Jeremy Irons), wants to rule the land by himself and hopes to topple the young and inexperienced Empress Savina (Thora Birch) by acquiring her mystical scepter--the key to controlling the Gold Dragons. To to counter Profion's plans, a young mage named Marina has to find the legendary Rod of Savrille--they key to controlling the Red Dragons. Marina teams up with a rowdy dwarf, an elf, and a pair of thieves named Ridley (Justin Whalin) and Snails (Marlon Wayans). But even with the help of this team, Marina's path to the Rod of Savrille is a rocky one laden with booby traps, puzzles, and Damodar--Profion's henchman, who threatens death at every turn. Nonetheless, the Empress and her followers are determined to face the odds to prevent the evil Profion from triumphing. The popular role-playing game Dungeons & Dragons comes to life in this film with cutting edge special effects, culminating in an awe-inspiring battle between two hordes of dragons over a huge, elaborate, Gothic city.
