This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
Derrick Gibbons
An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.
Allison Davies
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

While this isn't the worst movie I've seen, it is one of the few where I gave up on it before finishing it. The producer of this thing must have had pictures of Lance Henriksen and Isaac Hayes in bed together to rope them into this.This is basically X-men set in post-apocalypse with bikers (all half-dozen of them) shot on a budget and with the skill of a bunch of fifth-graders. That's not necessarily a bad thing, but the story is rambling and incoherent with oddball elements like a surprise tribe of Juggalos that nobody knows about living just around the corner.The main problem, though, is that the story is very slow and boring. Not even the Juggalos and the half-naked girls can save it. If you are are fan of the genre, there is any number movies, most of them made in the 80's, that are much better, even in their awfulness.The reason this gets two stars is that I actually know worse films.

Yes, this movie has a low budget. Yes, it has Sherry Lynn Fenn (chek speling) in a damp fur coat. Yes, it looks a lot like the segment where our "hero's" from Eurotrip end up in the former Eastern Bloc (before they pool their financial resources) A lot of this movie will be familiar and derivative. You shouldn't be surprised. For whatever reason, the meteor that destroys most of civilization has left both "regular" people and "mutants" with special powers alive. You'd think that people would need special powers to live through an apocalypse, and the "regulars" wouldn't survive, but survive, they do, and their king, Lance Henriksson, (chek speling) needs to eradicate the mutants--even though one of them can heal people.I must say, that there wasn't much behind the hero (for most of the movie), and I'd like to know what he planned after the rescue of "the healer." But I think, on the whole that the actors took their parts seriously enough, and the director used his budget wisely (real stunt work and good enough editing). One segment of the movie is confusing, but the scenes, themselves are all well made. I enjoyed the movie, because it knew what it had to work with and I could see a real effort. Enjoy it. P.S. (chek speling) is a little joke--I know there's a silent "J" ;)

Okay first off, this movie looked like it had potential to be a sweet B-movie. The cover showed a guy in medieval armor standing in front of what we assumed was a post-apocalyptic New York City (hence the statue of liberty). Lance Hendriksen was good in previous work and my friends and I were in the mood for a B-movie, so we rented it. It was perhaps the biggest mistake of our lives. This is where my rant begins and I may give away parts of the movie that could ruin it for some, so stop reading if you want to waste 5 bucks and watch this movie. Firstly, the movie at no point had New York City or any man in medieval armor. The plot made little sense because their quest was for a river, except what they found was far from a river. Think about what a river is, RUNNING WATER. The "river" was a pond. They panned around the whole thing. I failed to see the "river" run to an ocean. Could they not afford to take the cast to a real river? The grenades were perhaps the biggest joke that I have ever seen. The grenade placed in the motorcycle didn't even damage the bike, it just made a little fire. And what was with the cars? Did every car from 1960 and beyond disappear when the meteor hit? I'd guess that this was filmed in Australia because of the Australian cast, so why would the cover have New York City? The whole point of the movie was really stupid. I won't even comment on the brains of some of the characters either. All in all, this was not even entertaining except for the extreme stupidity that I laughed at.

I sure am glad I work at Blockbuster, If I didn't I wouldn't ever get to see gems like "Dream Warrior". A giant piece of bad CG animation made to look like a meteor collides with earth, causing volcanoes to erupt and lots of stock footage we have all seen on the discovery channel to appear. If that stock footage was the apocalypse, then I am really confused. Anyway, The main character, Rage (Yes, that is his name, his father is a dipshit.)was let out of his cell by an unseen figure. The viewer finds out soon enough that our hero can read minds. This is why he is being hunted. In the post-apoc-stock-footage world of "Dream Warrior" that meteor caused humans to evolve.Anyone that has evolved is considered "impure" and is called a freak. Also, they are pale imitations of the X-men. Seeing how Rage's only power is to read minds. All the other freaks get cool powers.. Isaac Hayes' character, Zo, for instance, has telekenisis. So does an annoying kid who probably also had a stupid name. Speaking of stupid names, the healer freak is named... Sterling, and I believe her last name was... PADLOCK, making her name to be Sterling Padlock.For a B action movie, this was actually pretty good. (I didn't even make fun of the fight scenes) The story was interesting, even though it is sort of a rip of off the x-men, minus the super heroes. It also borrows a lot from Mad Max. "Dream Warrior" has a lot of faults. But one has to look at a movie like a high school student, B movies are like the special kids, they want to be just like the cool, popular kids, ("Dodgeball" is like that class clown that hangs out with "White Chicks")and for instance and are fun to watch when they try. ...I don't think that made any sense. I give dream warrior a 2 out of 4. a B movie that tried.
