Reviews
Not too bad. Certainly a LOT better than the first attempt at a D&D film.
The actions scenes lean too hard into what I assume was 3D, but were still fun.
Chris Pine is, well… Chris Pine, but the rest of cast were entertaining. Michelle Rodriguez steals the show.
I was so surprised by how good this was, especially as someone with no D&D knowledge at all. It is super funny, and not at the expense of the action or the story. It's just a lot more fun than I find most fantasy movies. I hope it gets a sequel.
Now that I know it was written by John Francis Daley, it all makes sense, because he also co-wrote Spider-Man Homecoming, which also nailed the comedy/action balance.
