Despite a few epic revelations, we never get a real sense of living, breathing dragons.

Reign of Fire
They're extremely intelligent. Highly evolved. And they don't like sharing the planet.

Overview
In post-apocalyptic England, an American volunteer and a British survivor team up to fight off a brood of fire-breathing dragons seeking to return to global dominance after centuries of rest underground.

Somebody get a hose and put this Fire out.
Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
Rotten
Peaks early with a vertiginous dogfight; thereafter, spotty CGI and a bamboozling plot conspire toward a colossal anticlimax.
Dennis Lim, Village Voice

I'm not going to argue that Reign of Fire is a good movie, but it's terribly entertaining it's kind of a classic camp film, so I'm giving it thumbs up.
Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper

Ultimately fails to come through in the fire-breathing clutch.
