Hey everyone, yesterday I got to check out a sneak preview screening of Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves. I really had no excitement (or even really plans) to go see this movie even just a month or two back but I have to admit... the more I saw and heard about this film, the more I wanted to see it. The positive reviews combined with a great cast, director and entertaining clips built my interest in this movie greatly. All that's to say, I've never played D&D in my whole life. So, does Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves provide a fun time at the movies or is this yet another generic studio fantasy flick?
