Avoiding spoilers I’ll give it my highest praise for how they handled the character relationships. You could argue the movie is action/adventure slop but it handles the characters quite well.
“Not amazing”? Have you even seen any other D&D movie ever made? They’re mud-caked shitbricks to this flick. Comparing it to any other film is right up there with expecting a fish to climb a tree. 🤌🏼
You don’t have to compare movies to other entries in the same franchise. Just the same genre is enough.
Like, Resident Evil movies suck. A lot. I don’t have to pick one and say “The others are worse, so this must be good”. I can confidently say that “this is the better one, but it still sucks”.
As for the DnD movie, I was honestly disappointed, especially as I went to watch it after hearing the very positive online discourse about it, which elevated my expectations a bit.
I don’t have the slightest idea of what the meaning of those words is, but “gargling Peter Jackson’s kiwi fruit” might be the funniest insult I’ve ever received.
Actually, no, scratch that. I was called an “inverted can of shoe polish” once on Reddit. That’s still the funniest. You take the second spot, though.
It’s pretty good. Not amazing, but pretty good.

The fact that a dnd movie, nowadays, is pretty good is what is fucking amazing.

I swear, if you’re one of those still gargling Peter Jackson’s kiwi fruits… 🤦🏼♂️

NGL, that sounds low-key racist, but I wasn’t there. 😅
