It is entertaining, has a lot of good humor, tons of fan service and enjoyable characters. Sadly it will be one of those movies that is really good but no one watched. Also I have seen the first D&D movie in cinema that was hilariously bad (but entertaining). This is an improvement by several levels. I bought the movie on DVD after hearing many people praised it. It was even better than I hoped for. The story starts with the bard Edgin and female barbarian Holga in a prison. They hope to be pardoned and telling the story how they got into trouble. However this is just the set up as they did not know that there was more behind it. The story fully works. All characters have their flaws, motivations and heroes journey. More movies need to do this. I liked them because I can relate to their struggles. Everyone has doubts, made decisions that backfire or dis-improves things by trying to fix them. There are also tons of lore, easter eggs and references. If you pay attention you even see the characters from the old D&D cartoon. The cast is near perfect and fits their roles. Chris Pine, Michelle Rodrigues, Sophia Lillis, Rege Jean Page, Justine Smith and all the others are excellent and have great chemistry. The bad guys are so enjoyable. I love to hate them. I should also praise the writers and directors. They made an awesome movie. Other than that I praise the humor and action scenes. Both are fully satisfying. The special effects are great too. They fit into the movie in a way that feels genuine. Overall I think I should give a 10/10. It might not be that good but it is a positive surprise and immense improvement. Also they made some positive example how to subvert expectation (In a way that I would applaud).… Expand

In the end a nice moment

Regé-Jean Page the Paladin, surely the best idea of the film, he talks like a Paladin, he is boring like a Paladin, he is good and brilliant like a Paladin, so he sucks, he is a success as a Paladin because that's how we like the stubborn.

I admit that I was the only one laughing in the room at this dialogue:

(I don't remember who): The son of a ****

(the Paladin): So the evil would come from his mother

Yes it makes me laugh

Sophia Lillis the druid was fine too, the chase scene and the different transformations were nice.

This movie is really funny and has some fun action scenes that were quite creative. The story was really fun and rewarding for fans of the D&D tabletop game and the subsequent video games. The movie felt like a campaign being played out; it was so cool. The story is consistent, logical, and very interesting. The world building was terrific and left me wanting to go back and play Neverwinter Nights and Baldur's Gate. Most of the lines had me cracking up. They were so witty. The dramatic scenes I thought were a bit weak, but the comedy was gold. It’s like if you mixed Ant-Man with Snatch.

The main characters were really good and very well acted. Hugh Grant is hilarious in the movie. Had that Jeff Goldblum from Thor Ragnarök feel. Everyone feels fleshed out, multidimensional, and interesting. I enjoyed all the main characters and thought they complimented each other well and felt like they had leveled up quite a bit by the end. The teamwork aspect felt good; it had that Fast and the Furious vibe where they ain't just a team, their a family.

While not the best graphics in the world, they were above par. The blended use of CGI and practical effects was quite good. The makeup and costumes were really well done. The cinematography was really good as well. I enjoyed the camera angles and the music in the film was terrific! They had me singing along with the bard songs. Felt like I was listening to Toss a Coin to Your Witcher - they even have a Tame Impala song that had me thinking of Muse's Knights of Cydonia.

I really thought this movie was fantastic; it had it's faults like all films do, but I thought all the negatives were quite negligible. I would highly recommend it to anyone who is a fan of action comedies.… Expand

@teatom : You present something as a fact while it's you who does not understand humor. Edgin presents Jarnathan as his friend while pleading and desperately wants him to be present....but the quote "fly you big bird" makes very clear how the two are related and why Edgin desperately wanted him to be in the room.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Dungeons and Dragons: Honor Among Thieves delivers on what it promises. There are dungeons and dragons and thieves. If you had the pleasure of watching the trailers for the past four months and also absorbed the San Diego Comic-Con press tour, you are well aware of the sight gags: fat dragons, orifices, Detective Pikachu is going to meet Bridgerton is going to meet Captain Kirk, and at some point Hugh Grant is going to be squeamishly cruel while Chris Pine is restrained like a little Japanese school girl by a tentacle monster. Also, Michelle Rodriguez is in this movie and she is going to brawl like a **** tank. All of that happens! The movie is almost as long as a full campaign but it never quite feels long? Except when Chris Pine is singing on his lute. Or really when anyone is singing along with him. Do I have some questions? Sure. Did this movie make me break out into hysterical and unexpected laughter more than once? Absolutely. Am I skeptical of the ability of this movie to replicate its success in later films? Sure. Will that impinge on your ability to enjoy this movie? Possibly!

What’s important right now is for you to know what worked and what didn’t. So, what worked? What’s clear even from the trailer is that the film has split its allotment of villains into two baskets: in one basket is the cartoonishly evil Red Wizards–shooting lightning out of their hands, throwing kittens into rivers, setting people’s babies on fire, etc.–the Voldemort basket, if you will, and in the other basket is the scoundrel-y, double-crossing, ultimately crueler because of its mundanity, the Draco basket, let’s call it. I’m a fan of splitting villains generally, whether it’s for powerscaling reasons (think goombas vs. Bowser), or because you want to be able to have some of the bad guys momentarily turn on other bad guys (think Thanos vs. Ronan the Accuser), or just because it extends the story somewhat (think Casino Royale’s distinct first and second acts).

Rick Remender’s Seven to Eternity was probably the most fun variant of the enemies to friends plot in a D&D-type story I’ve ever encountered for many of the same reasons cited above. The Mud King’s capture forces a motley band of heroes to endure some very wise cracks from the most silver of silver tongues. The forces at work to return him to power are sundry and legion, but there are all sorts who have motives for inflicting maximal pain on him before he can be brought to justice. In Honor Among Thieves, I was a little worried that the trailer had given away too much of the Red Wizard’s arc (and in some ways it does), but there’s a fair bit of interaction between the wizard and the rest of the cast, which doesn’t rely on combat to resolve itself. Probably the most satisfying villain is actually Hugh Grant, whose quick and easy lies devastate and vex by virtue of his former place as a trusted confidante.

Does Hugh Grant have a power? Is he a wizard? I ask all twelve Friends who made it to this over-invited movie event. “No, he’s just a guy.” But all the other guys can turn into bears and stuff, right? So what’s his deal? “He doesn’t have a deal. He’s just a thing.” The film does have a fair bit of excellent power scaling in it. Not every character is made equally. I think a lot about how one of my favorite parts of Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars is the fact that your party is composed of 1) a plumber, 2) a princess, 3) a prince made of clouds, 4) a lizard king, and 5) a **** fallen star wizard puppet that has a move that does over 9000 damage. Just so, Honor Among Thieves features a dude who can’t play the lute miming playing the lute, a brawler, a minor sorcerer, a shapeshifter, a… just normal guy with plans, I guess?, and Regé-Jean Page, skilled swordsman and powerful magical being. It means that the party has a formidable opponent to guard against big and small problems as they occur. A friend described this “everybody gets a moment” quality to the movie as reminiscent of the best elements of Phase 2 in the MCU, those Avengers moments when you’d get to see Iron Man do something badass and then maybe Cap would do something that would get the crowd cheering, etc. Kind of reminds me of how Gandalf in his infinite wisdom doesn’t call Eagles to deliver the Ring of Power to Mordor in a day’s time, but instead concocts a generations-long plan to have halflings journey for thousands of miles to assemble the forces of Man, Elf, and Dwarf to… eventually have Eagles finish the job, etc. So so much more to say but I'm hitting the word limit soon on this site!… Expand

I mean, I waited to watch the movie at home and didn't even bother with the big screen experience... Also, I'm no stranger to DnD or DnD movies. Oh, God... Those movies... Sorry, getting flashbacks.

I know that I almost always enjoy Chris Pine's acting and I have a soft spot for Michelle Rodriguez, so I assumed I would at least have a decent time watching this and with "The Legend of Vox Machina" out there my DnD itch was scratched... or so I think. Never before has a movie made me want to play DnD more. Never before did a movie make me actively try to gather my friends or seek out a video game or ANYTHING to just... be in the Forgotten Realms again. This movie is just fun. It's a fun watch. It's good. It's not a cinematic masterpiece but I was left wanting more! I just had fun watching a DnD movie! And it wasn't ironic fun... it was that pure, childlike fun of adventure. I really don't want to spoil anything, even by accident, so I will cut this short and I'll tell you this: there are things that make no sense in the lore and some errors here and there but in the moment, when you're watching it... none of that matters. It's just so fun! Give it a watch, you'll have fun too!… Expand

The film has excellent special effects and Lorne Balfe's score is also fabulous.

This is as much an adventure as you could get. Ending and motivation of Good and Evil were obvious from second one and yet I did not mind. CGI was great with some great shots, scenes and action sequences. If I compare the worldbuilding and depth of the world with other more recent movies or shows, it clearly comes out as one of the better.

Definitely a must-watch if you like adventure movies, magic, dragons and undead.

What a Surprise, Something new and Fresh, entertaining, funny, and cinematically modern. To put it simply this movie is a product of what you'd get if you were to combine the MCU(The good MCU) and Lord of The Rings. This a true testament toWhat a Surprise, Something new and Fresh, entertaining, funny, and cinematically modern. To put it simply this movie is a product of what you'd get if you were to combine the MCU(The good MCU) and Lord of The Rings. This a true testament to the D&D Franchise that has been alive for a long time, and this movie captures the essence and the general fun of D&D.

The Visuals, the characters, and just the way things are filmed show that this was a film that the cast and Crew enjoyed making. Not only is it well-paced its also filled with lore that is appealing.

I enjoyed watching this film, it took its time, and it immersed you in a new world filled with wonder and time, crazy fun and wacky scenes that I never thought I'd want to see on screen.

Ok let me roll my dice here for ratings:
VFX and Practicals - 10/10, this is the perfect blend and use of visuals I have not seen in a while.

Characters - 9/10, While I don't remember all of their names, I liked every character in this movie, maybe some were sidelined a little bit but still an outstanding job.

Story and Plot 8/10, Simple, takes its time and is charming.

Comedy Factor - 8/10, not every Joke will hit especially for those not familiar with D&D but most will.

Action and Adventure - 9/10, It's all in the Journey and that's all that matters, maybe lacks some action at points but when there is action it's top tier.

This movie Hit me in the sweet spot and really did something new for a change compared to Hollywood standards.
9/10, well done, I expect a sequel and more adventures to come in the future. Everyone that had to do with the making of this film should be proud of themselves, they deserve praise and respect for the service done to the fans and the standard of movie-making.… Expand

I didn't know much about this movie going into it and have only seen bits from trailers that were shown on TV. To my surprise I was entertained and laughing the entire time. I never played DnD when I was younger, but I could see the imagination in the story to how a group of kids would plan their DnD quest! Even though I haven't played DnD I didn't feel lost or confused when they would talk about the world or lore, they make it very easy to follow. All the characters were over the top, exciting, and unique. Its fast paced filled with action, comedy, and drama. The CGI was amazing in most scenes, but some did feel a little uneasy to look at. The score was disappointing and forgettable, it should have been better for a movie of this scale and with a better score the overall rating and feel of this movie would improve. Overall this is a fun movie to watch with a group of friends or your family. It's an easy watch and I will definitely be watching it multiple times, as I enjoyed this movie a great deal. I hope they continue this franchise and keep the same humor and quirkiness.… Expand

The story is also well thought out but there were still inconsistencies (not much). It is a strong comedy with very good jokes and funny moments. You can see that the jokes are not only for the kids but also for the older community. The fans of Dungeons and Dragons should be happy with the result, because it is not a bad film.

O filme inicia com a dupla de protagonistas presos, e é bem feliz a escolha dos flashbacks por parte do roteiro, inserindo-os em momentos oportunos e com a dinamicidade que não nos faz perder o fio da história. Após escaparem da prisão, eles saem em busca de aliados para derrotar o vilão. Há que se dizer que os personagens encontrados pelo caminho tem todos uma personalidade própria, o que garante uma boa dose de humanidade a eles. Infelizmente sobrou pro aprendiz de feiticeiro interpretado por Justice Smith ser a válvula de humor do filme, do típico humor infantil, o que é uma pena, o filme poderia muito bem sobreviver sem certas piadinhas idiotas que ele faz ao longo do percurso, mas ainda assim o filme cheira mais a aventura mesmo, então relevemos.
A dose de drama familiar e de romance principalmente, está super bem equilibrada, não fazendo a qualidade cair. Há alguns easter eggs no caminho (como a turma da "caverna do dragão"), mas o filme basta por si, tem passagens bem criativas e ainda um plost no cargo da vilania que, embora seja sentido de longe, usou o timing correto.
Nesse tipo de projeto não se pode usar muito a lógica ou não querer que o roteiro abuse de conveniências, então claro que aqui há muitas, conquanto elas favoreçam o ritmo do filme e em prol de uma boa história, tá valendo, e foi exatamente isso que aconteceu.
Apesar de ser um pouco violento, não jorra sangue, permitindo a ida de jovens ao cinema, e certamente terão muita diversão a encontrar. Eu gostei que os planos foram bem arquitetados, não tratou seu expectador como idiota.
Com um ritmo bem intenso, pra mim as mais de duas horas passaram voando, não houve momentos de queda ou cansativos, o filme está divertido e empolgante do início ao fim. Uma grata surpresa.… Expand

It isn't the best film ever made, however, it's worth watching. It keeps the soul of DnD; in some scenes though the eyes of some secondary character you can really see the hate of the DM just after a member of the party has completely destroyed his plans. The plot is fairly linear and simple, but not obvious or stupid, just like a one-shot. It's enjoyable by both DnD veterans and those who never heard what DnD is: the story is well explained so that everyone can understand it, but DnD veterans won't be bored because they will be focused on pointing out every single reference and hint to classes, locations, abilities, spells and so forth. The locations are wonderfully made, the atmosphere is not bad at all thanks to a solid soundtrack, the outfits are astounding (with few exceptions), and the characters are quite characterized and well-made. Even though some reviews talk about wokeness and cast diversity, it's never brought up in the film and the cast diversity doesn't seem forced. However, it has few flaws: most of the action scenes are full with blinding lights, mediocre VFXs and hundreds of cuts and horribles camera movements that prevent you from understanding what happens. And finally most of the CGI is mediocre (except from the final scenes). If you like watching fantasy films or you like DnD you'll surely love it, and even if you don't love fantasy films I think you will probably still like it due to it's light-hearted comedy; just don't expect an action packed film, or a film filled with intrigue or high emotions, but a simple solid, light-hearted fantasy film.… Expand

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

The movie is engaging and it's filled with action and laughter.… Expand

Great funny fantasy film of all time. Better than lords of the rings. Go watch it already, worth your money. Bring your whole family too.

Watching Honor among thieves was a bit like entering the imagination of a group of DnD players and their DMs. The movie covers the main pillars of DnD and the type of exaggerations people usually embed in their DnD characters. It is in myWatching Honor among thieves was a bit like entering the imagination of a group of DnD players and their DMs. The movie covers the main pillars of DnD and the type of exaggerations people usually embed in their DnD characters. It is in my opinion a movie that properly captures and pays respect to a hobby a lot of people enjoy while also providing an entertaining experience to a new audience. If you read other comments you’ll see most people make similar comments. It’s fun. It’s enjoyable.… Expand

The work honors the feel of D&D without rolling a die. There are certainly moments you could point to where the person rolled a NAT 1 or NAT 20 without them breaking the 4th wall and saying such.

Even non-fans or casuals of the game could enjoy the film without being privy to some of the more inside baseball. If you have an inkling to see it, please support the movie in theaters so more great works like this can be made.… Expand

I went into the movie without knowing much about Dnd and thoroughly enjoyed the movie! It had a great blend of action and comedy, making me want to know more about the universe and setting in general.

Bonus points for the kind of shenanigans your average D&D enjoyer gets up to. Two: the film respects women (y'know, literally half of the population. I'm a guy and the male gaze in cinema makes me feel uncomfortable). Three: the film simply being good all by itself.

It exceeded my expectations in all three. It's tight, action-packed and the humour is on-point. Go watch it; you won't be disappointed.… Expand

Unlike other attempts to adapt not just board games, but any sort of source material, there really is a sense of respect and adoration for the game here, with special reverence towards the process of teamwork and problem-solving. You gotta love a film that just makes you want to drop everything and engage with the thing it's based on. Especially when you've never even engaged with that subject matter before. This really is the first real winner of 2023 for me and a solid contender for movie of the year so far — no joke.… Expand
