Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

I suppose at some time or other in one's life one has to see a Uwe Boll movie and here is one I came across in the local pound shop. Though I was lured by it because Dolph Lungren was the star and I've always had a warm liking for Dolph (in his good and in his bad films) but here my admiration turned to pity as this was tedious as a walk on a wet Wednesday in Watford. Dolph plays an ex-soldier called Granger who is whisked to another world to fulfill one of those vague prophecies that usually feature in this kind of film.A hilariously miscast Lochlyn Munro is the king of what appears to be a village with cardboard walls and the rest of the cast, including Dolph, go through the motions. Any attempt at emotions comes off flat. A passable CGI dragon comes on near the end but doesn't add much excitement. There are action scenes but shot in that shaky cam, quick cutting sort of way that is more annoying than thrilling. The only laugh it gave me was the actor with the character name of 'Pudgy Dark One' which must look good on his CV.

The only thing I enjoyed about this movie was ....The Cover... It has Dolph in a suit of armour and a nice fortress that was not seen in the movie.....But they did have in the 43rd minute.....(As the guards close the fortress doors and the camera pans out...in between the right side of the fortress and that big tree.....you'll see an Automobile, 4 door I think.... lol)And what was that camera shot with the king setting his wig at the beginning. I thought that it would be significant later on in the movie...but No..Nope!! definitely not a keeper

I almost didn't watch this movie due to the extreme hate comments against uwe ball as the director but then again no one who has actually graduated a real accredited university like myself have any type of realistic feedback on the actual film itself. I love time travel films and mid-evil movies so this was a must watch for me. Considering that fact that this is a low budget film, I couldn't even imagine how they fulled off the special effects with the dragon and Dolph's character Granger really shows a side of the actor that we never knew existed. Overall, please leave your hate comments for uwe ball away from the movie, he directed a good film if you hate him that much then send him letters but do not waste people's time with faulty reviews of a film that was pretty good. I wish the ending would have been more in-depth (but almost no movie is now a days) but other than that it is worth your time if your a time travel movie fan!

A sequel with only a tenth of the budget of its predecessor obviously doesn't stand a chance in the comparison. Instead of Burt Reynolds as a king facing an army of 1000 Orcs in leather armour, you get some unknown young man as a king with an army of 20 extras in black cotton. The fortress looks like anyone could destroy it on a Monday morning. The dragon shows some professional CGI effects, one rare point that exceeds the expectations. Nevertheless, if you decide to do a fantasy movie when you are forced to make many restrictions, either the story and characters must save the day (like in 'Warrior Angels'), or you make uncompromising, hilarious trash (such as 'Barbarian Queen'). In "Two Worlds", neither of these two possibilities is accomplished, it must be said.Movies where fantasy heroes are traveling to the modern age (from 'Beastmaster 2' to 'Masters of the Universe') are usually cheesy. They fortunately tried the other way around here and moved a modern day hero to the distant past: Dolph Lundgren. As Granger the Stranger, he has unusual things to worry about, like drinking water probably full of bacteria, and he certainly has no respect for kings and witches. Natassia Malthe gets the funniest part, which must have been a nice change for her after the Bloodrayne stuff: she is a doctor trying to find out more about the medicine of the future. The story is well paced, so the 90 minutes passed quickly, but I was left with a feeling that I didn't quite get what I expected.
