Christian Bale, Matthew McConaughey, and Gerard Butler Battled Dragons in This Unfairly Forgotten Post-Apocalyptic Fantasy Movie

The post-apocalyptic movie is a thriving genre because filmmakers can easily imagine all the different ways the world will end. Will it be a cataclysmic weather event that wipes humanity off the map? A virus that turns humanity into flesh-eating monsters? A Biblical flood of plagues and horsemen trumpeting the apocalypse? The possibilities are endless, but where Reign of Fireis concerned, the end of the world begins when you wake up a dragon. Construction on the London Underground leads to a horde of dragons awakening, and efforts to use nuclear weapons to stop them only leads to dwindling numbers for the human race. Years later, Quinn Abercromby (Christian Bale) is the head of a group of survivors who are hoping to wait out the dragons' hibernation cycle. American Denton Van Zan (Matthew McConaughey) comes to London with an armored convoy to stop the dragons once and for all, joining forces with Quinn and his best friend Creedy (Gerard Butler).
