The new movie Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves has gotten rave reviews so far, including a Certified Fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes. It’s buckets of fun, laugh-out-loud funny and has a surprising amount of heart for a movie based on a table top game.
A large part of the movie’s charm rests with its leading man. Chris Pine is part of Hollywood’s Handsome Chris Coalition — along with Chrises Hemsworth, Evans and Pratt — and is undeniably charismatic and incredibly funny. His dry delivery of lines that include mention of Hither Thither Staffs, Helms of Disjunction and the Underdark hit perfectly and make a complicated world seem utterly accessible.
