Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves
Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves does a really good job at displaying an actual D&D campaign. Some of this doesn’t translate well into a film. For the first half of the movie or so, some problems that arises were quickly solved by some convenient coincidence that was not spoken of prior, making it appear a little lazy.
The second half of the movie really corrected the course. The writing started picking up a bit and the plot progression became more natural.
Something this film does really well, is making sure each character has a well thought out character arc. Each of the main characters were given attention to their development without distracting from the overall story.
The fight scenes were done very creatively, they were seemingly turn-based but done very fluidly as to not distract from the quality of the scene.
Overall, this is a very creative film that wonderfully displays a D&D Quest. While having some questionable plot points and a bit of lazy writing, it makes up in humor and action.
