Yes, this is one of the best tabletop-rpg-party movies ever made. Like The Mummy or The Princess Bride.

Edit: or Treasure Planet

Never played DnD (nor do I ever care to; I'm not autistic enough for it), but I'm curious: what do you mean by "tabletop movie"?

Ah, most tabletop roleplaying games, like DnD, tend to have a sort of chaotic "we didn't think this through properly" seat-of-your-pants energy where the group bumbles from situation to situation and somehow still manages to succeed. There's also a strong tendency of there being wildly different characters who somehow still work really well together.

Those are great! I feel like the recent DnD movie was also very well done in that sense.
