It’s a great fun movie. The plot’s great, the pacing is great, the references are great, the comedy is great. It’s a fun adventure with a relatable team of misfit heroes.

It takes some liberties with the game mechanics to accomplish this. If you can’t forgive that, you’ll have a rough time, especially if you like wildshaping druids and spellcasting bards.

I honestly enjoyed it way more than I thought I would. They is a chonky dragon. I repeat, a chonky dragon!

It's fun. Don't expect anything extraordinary and you won't be disappointed.

Some of the plans they hatch really feel like the wacky stuff players come up with.

As far as franchised products based films it's very rewatchable and I imagine will be a comfort movie on the future.

Id put it just a little below the Lego Movie for quality for what's essentially an advertisement movie. No complaints however.

As a D&D fan it hits the sweet spots of references but not to feel like it's pandering (see Super Mario Movie). For a die hard D&D fan you can feel the die rolls going on in the movie.

I imagine Hasbro will kill or ruin Studio One somehow which is a shame I would want more of these kind of D&D movies

It was such a fun movie! It was much better then it had any right being! With that said, the things I appreciated was, the world felt lived in, they didn't make a big deal out of races other then humans, just continued on like "Yeah, bird people, that's a thing we all know is real and accept".

With no spoilers, I heavily appreciated the "dragon scene", it was an interesting take that made it fresh but was still an incredibly dangerous situation for the characters.

Thought I'd hate it. But all in all i came out of the cinema with a positive experience. The plot is kinda basic, but it captures a homebrew dnd campaign pretty well. It's a lot of fun

First off I mean this in a good way. I thought it felt a lot more like a movie of how real life players would play the campaign, rather than an attempt at a movie adaptation of a book. And having played D&D, I think it made the movie more relatable to the core audience.

So definitely recommend it.

Recently watched it. As a DND movie I give it 9/10, a nearly perfect DND movie

As a movie, maybe 7/10. It doesn't take too many risks, and it won't make you cry.

It's like a dumb heist movie, and very enjoyable.

I had a great time watching it. It’s definitely worth checking out even if it’s not for you. There’s enough fun to justify it.

It's something we haven't seen at the the movies for a while. A nice fun action romp. Think what Marvel films used to be at the start when they were self contained stories and not just set up for the next movie. It somehow manages to be exactly like a D&D game while also being completely enjoyable even if you don't know what D&D is.

It is very good. Feels like DnD as played by players and a dm that has to adapt to their stupid ideas.

Super underrated!! I didn't expect to be laughing the whole time. Loved it!

It's quite good. Far better than I expected it to be.

It's an absolutely fine action fantasy movie. Expect a middle of the pack Marvel movie but it's D&D. Lot's of fun lore for newer and older Forgotten Realms nerds.

We had fun at the movies when I watched it with both my DnD and Pathfinder group.

It’s a cute movie. Some scenes are funny to watch because they reminded me of what my group would come up in a situation.

It is some times campy, but in a good way. It doesn't take itself too seriously. Overall al lot of fun and a lot of great references for fans.

Highly recommend it!

You people don't understand how grateful I am that this movie wasn't shit. It was very 'safe' sure but I don't care. This movie was good enough to warrant a sequel and that's all I ever wanted I am ecstatic about this movie.

It is funny, charming, and ISNT HORRIBLE! We might get sequels! Shows! I don't care! It just isn't a shitshow most game-movies are

Both myself and my wife really enjoyed it. I have played D&D for a long time and my wife had never had any interest in it.

It's a good fun time. The stakes aren't massive so it feels real. The characters are a lot of fun, and have a good variety to their personalities.

I really liked the visualization of magic, it looks great, and really breathes life into the spells we've played with for years.

And the practical effects are great. The movie uses costumes, props, and setpieces for a lot of creatures and spells which gives it a very real look.

I loved it. Campy as fuck but awesome.

I enjoyed it a lot. It has just the right amount of humour, and it was suprisingly loyal to D&D lore.

+1 i loved it

Haven't seen it yet but looking forward to it, I've heard lots of good things

Much better than I thought it was going to be.

There would have been so many ways to make this movie suck. IMO they avoided all of them. I loved it.

Many people are saying that it was faithful to DND mechanics, but I personally don't care about that so much. I loved how it captured the feel of an evening of dnd at the table with my friends. The lightheartedness, the nonsensical stunts, the banter. It even makes fun of insane DM puzzles at some point. You can really tell the writers have some love for DND.

Never played DnD but i enjoyed the movie!

I didn't think it was. I'd definitely be down for more movies in the dnd universe though if this was an example of what they'd be doing if that helps at all. Probably not a theater level movie but a good home movie or fun with friends watching for sure.

It's been out long enough that it's starting to get some opinions that hate or nitpick it to death, but I think the fact it got so much overall good reception from the DnD crowd when it first came out says something. And once you realize it's a visualization of a session between players and the DM, a rewatch to catch the little details that were missed before makes it even more enjoyable.

I enjoyed the movie. Watching it felt like a DND campaign.

A brilliant little romp. Stays faithful to core DnD mechanics, without diving into the detail, getting bogged down and alienating people who don't play.

Jarnathan for president!

as someone who casually plays D&D, I loved it. It seemed chock full of references and was genuinely funny

I loved it. It was fun.

I thought it was a lot of fun. Not a D&D fan though, so I'm not sure what the hardcore fans thought.

It was a really fun movie, and while not top-tier cinema I'd definitely rate it as good. The actors did well, the dialogue was great, and there were so many easter eggs.

And you definitely felt in parts that it was a D&D game. The characters doing stupid things, the GM throwing a lifeline here and there, the sequence of combat in some of the battles...

I'm sad it came out at a bad time, I think it could've done better.

I really enjoyed it. Probably a 8/10 for fantasy movies, 9/10 for D&D movie. Maybe a 7/10 for a movie in general? It's hard for me to say because I loved it.

I'd say it's okay, not bad and not particularly good.

My group and I went and saw it together, and the consensus from us 6 is that it was awesome!

it is great I actually went to see more then once

I really enjoyed it. Its very self aware and a fun silly adventure story.
