D&D Movie/TV D&D, Honor Among Thieves, Certified Fresh at Rotten Tomatoes

The movie being Certified Fresh at 90% is somewhat beyond my best case scenario during the production of the film...

Just being Fresh seemed optimistic.

It’s wild. Just… breathtaking!

 

[Blue Orange]

What interests me is the audience rating is even higher--94% last time I checked.

Just bought tickets to see it Friday night with my sons. Should be a good time.

Audience is usually more forgiving than critics for big blockbuster fare.

My cautious optimism dating back to the teaser trailer continues to tick upward. It certainly sounds like something I will like. I was at Gary Con this past weekend and they were bussing people out to a theatre in Lake Geneva for free preview screenings on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, but I was booked for games at all of the showtimes. I'll have to see it with the rest of the civilians starting Friday.

I don't know how well it will do financially--between Mario and John Wick, they might be screwed--but it seems like "The D&D movie is pretty good" will finally be something we can say unironically.

Seems to me that it is pretty good counter programming: John Wick is aiming at an older audience on average, and Mario at a younger one.

I know the John Wick franchise is very popular, but is the Mario movie getting any buzz? The last time I heard anything about it was a month or two ago and it was being derided pretty heavily …

Is it actually supposed to have a decent opening this weekend now?
