[QUOTE="Nathaniel Lee, post: 8972414, member: 6948827"] I thought that the movie was great. I liked that it had dramatic moments, but didn't take itself too seriously... that it had humorous moments, but didn't fall into the trap of wink-wink nudge-nudge making fun of the source material. I thought the action sequences played out pretty well. I think they did a great job of really leaning into the roles of the different classes in the party, and really played up their different contributions to the story. I especially liked that there were lots of nice allusions to the source material, and that often times they fit "naturally" into the world that they were building: not every single monster was the centerpiece thing that the party had to fight and conquer, some were just pests or livestock. I kind of liken it to Detective Pikachu in the sense that nobody in the world really questioned the validity of things: it was all just part of their reality. But what this movie does loads better than that one is present a film that even people without any notion of the source material can still enjoy as a fun fantasy romp... the familiarity with the source material just enhances the experience.
