Plot Summary
The imaginary world of the most popular fantasy role-playing game ever comes to life in this special-effects-filled adventure. In the Empire of Izmer, magic is the key to power in both the supernatural and political realms. The Mages are a sect who know the secrets of magic and use it to hold sway over the masses. The youthful Empress Savina wants to use her powers to bring justice and prosperity to all, but Profion is an evil Mage who wants to use his knowledge of magic to overthrow Savina and establish his own despotic rule. Through deceitful means, Profion wins away the special scepter that allows him to control the nation's Golden Dragons; Savina's only hope to recover the scepter and the rule of Izmer is to obtain the Rod of Savrille, a talisman that will give her powers over the Red Dragons, even more powerful than their golden counterparts. As Savina sets out to gain control of the Red Dragons, she gains a number of unlikely allies.

Top Critics' Reviews
Rotten: The average episode of Xena or Hercules offers a more compelling and imaginative photoplay.
Rotten: The special effects ... are nothing special, which is as close as this painfully derivative clunker is ever going to get to a ringing endorsement.
Rotten: Sinks in a sea of cheesy effects, cheap cliches, dispiriting narrative and the one thing an action fantasy can't afford: boredom.
Rotten: Alas, much of the dialogue is the silliest sort of fantasy mush, and a good deal of the picture appears to have been shot while the lighting guys were out to lunch.
