Review of Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves (2023) by Taramede — 01 Apr 2023

This is my favorite movie in years. It's just a straight up great movie. I love Dungeons & Dragons, and this is a perfect representation of what it's like to play a tabletop campaign. It doesn't take itself too seriously, but it isn't just a big joke either.

It was a perfect mix of serious, funny, emotional, and heartfelt moments. I can assure you there will be both laughter and tears, and you will be doing a whole lot of smiling throughout the movie. Chris Pine, Michelle Rodriguez, Regé-Jean Page, Justice Smith, Sophia Lillis, Hugh Grant, Daisy Head, and Chloe Coleman all did a great job portraying their characters and made the movie better for it.

The effects, both practical and CG, greatly enhanced the movie and there were some amazing landscapes and sets portrayed too. All in all, this is a must watch film for anyone looking to have a great time whether you're a fan of D&D or not.

I would highly recommend reading the two prequel novels, Druid's Call and The Road to Neverwinter, too since they go deeper into the characters' origins and motivations, which really enhanced my enjoyment and made me feel a deeper connection with each of them.
