Reign of Fire

“They're extremely intelligent. Highly evolved. And they don't like sharing the planet.”

Quinn Abercromby (Christian Bale) only wants to keep the survivors in his Northumberland-style fortress fed and alive in an England burned down by dragons. Then Denton Van Zan (Matthew McConaughey), an American who has come to hunt the creatures, turns up and talks of finishing them for good. Rob Bowman stages the fights with the kind of speed and noise that suits a summer crowd.
