It Was Okay!

Matthew, Nathaniel, two of my local buddies, and I all took in a screening of the new D&D movie yesterday. It was okay! I actually enjoyed it less than I thought I would, but I still enjoyed it. It was a fun, Marvel-esque romp with some genuinely good humor, and -- this is no small feat -- managed to be accessible to those who aren't D&D aficionados but still had plenty of Easter Eggs for those who are steeped in the lore of the Forgotten Realms. My favorite bit was a couple of quick cameos of the six plucky kids from the D&D cartoon of yesteryear. I guess I would have preferred a whole movie about them!
