If there was anything missing from the lives of swords ‘n’ sorcery-loving nerds, it would be a proper Dungeons & Dragons movie. Now we have one. Read full review

Daley and Goldstein have written and directed a fabulous paean to the granddaddy of Tabletop Role-Playing games that is just so much fun. Read full review

For all its visual prowess, the film’s most successful element is its balance of the fantastical with the familiar. Read full review

Honor Among Thieves is a big, bright, iridescent gem of a heist movie in a spectacular, vibrant, and fantastical world. Read full review

A big-budget crowd-pleaser that avoids the pitfall of taking itself too seriously, it is well-cast, well-crafted and just plain fun, an old-school spectacle that makes a compelling case for sitting in the dark with a hundred or more strangers and just enjoying the show. Read full review

Is Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves a fun watch? Sure. The spectacle is impressive at times, with better CG than most peers in its class. It works best as a romp and a primer for kids with parents itching to open their minds to D&D play. In terms of its cinematic impact, though, there’s too much that’s too familiar, which makes it slight and forgettable. Read full review

Every element other than Mr. Grant is brain-scarringly awful—the flat characters, the dull acting, the rusted-battleax dialogue, and above all the action scenes, which are frenzied, chaotic, meaningless and vapid, overflowing with CGI that is no more awe-inspiring than the average TV commercial about lizards selling auto insurance.

As a devout DnD player I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. It is also an excellent movie for the general population. That brings it to the next level. I went in with high expectations because of the positive reviews and I was not let down. This movie obviously was a labor of love.

The movie was so fun and amazing. I felt like I was a teenager again watching a fun 2000s movie on Friday night.

I really liked this one. For me, it managed to juggle the characters, plot, and action scenes, in a way that allowed me to care. stepping back, I see that there was a lot that needed to happen to get to the end and that could have easily become a jumbled mess. While not perfect, I think the story pacing was done well enough to get me to a satisfactory ending. The cast did a great job getting me to care for whatever shenanigans they were getting into. I'm probably not the best to critique someone else's writing, but if there were any bad writing, I couldn't tell. What I really liked is that each member of the party had their hero moments (some more than others) and that they played well with their character. in conclusion: Liked it a lot, time will tell if I really love it.… Expand

It lives up to the trailer. Biggest on-screen assets are Chris Pine generously sharing the spotlight with his co-stars; and, VFX with unusually high visual vitality.

Biggest on-screen assets are Chris Pine generously sharing the spotlight with his co-stars; and, VFX with unusually high visual vitality. On the downside, as with Shazam 2, I cant shake the feeling Im back again in 2010 or 2005. Spiderman No Way Home had a trickle of resonance with real life. D&D and Shazam 2 have zero resonance with issues or needs in the real world 2020-2023. Purely escapist movies like D&D and Shazam 2 assume audiences want nothing more for 90 to 120 minutes than relief and distraction from real world issues. If D&D makes a profit, Ill be happy to see outstanding creative teamwork rewarded. If D&D fails to find a large audience, Ill take more seriously how outstanding creative teamwork cant altogether substitute for, or paper over, being completely dissociated from all real world events, issues and needs.… Expand

It was fun and the family enjoyed it. I really wish the "writers,actors, directors" would just shut the hell up and stop turning people off to their movies. This is defiantly the best of the D&D movies so far.

Absolute woke garbage with horrible script as usual!
Not wasting more words and time on this.
