They broke the curse of the D&D movies. This one will apeal to gamers and non gamers.

Full on fun fantasy adventure. It brings all of the elements of D&D to the screen and not in a way that will make people who have never played the game feel like they are missing out. But for any of you that have played it will feel like a story put together by a great D&D Master. And Hugh Grant is amazing as the slimy guy as he always nails it whenever he is in a movie.

The film’s set pieces are built around comedy, with bits of (cleverly choreographed and directed) action and suspense to add some urgency, not the other way around.

Co-directors Jonathan Goldstein and John Francis Daley, working from a script they penned with Michael Gilio, have struck the right balance between high-stakes action, warm drama and clever comedy in a consistently engaging, mostly family-friendly romp that features some of the most spot-on casting of any film so far this year.

Honour Among Thieves could have tidied away its plot more economically, but the leisurely pacing does allow us to connect with the surprisingly fleshy characters. It is no mean feat to make something so funny from such unpromising material. It is more impressive still to end on a genuinely moving note. A welcome surprise.
