Anyone seen it? Is it awful?
It was fun, but the CGI was dated in parts. Overall, glad I streamed it instead of seeing it in theaters

MODERATORS
It's good even if some mechanical inaccuracies bother me (Mostly the fact that the bard casts zero spells)
To be fair I understand why they did that and I'm very happy with how they handled a spell-less bard. The writers have stated that they wanted to make each character feel distinct and needed, even from the eyes of someone who doesn't know anything about DnD. The way they handled that was to make the sorcerer the only spell caster so that no other protagonist could cast spells and weaken his importance to the group dynamic. To remedy that they leaned hard into bardic inspiration. While it's never said and never made explicit, it'sso clear to me as a long time DnD fan that the bard is constantly rolling bardic inspiration die. Honestly I think it brings out the unique strengths of his class more than if he was also casting spells, which is what I think the writers were going for.
It's not awful, but not the kind of movie I like. Most of the community seems to view it positively. I think marvel movies are a fair analogue in terms of quality, although my markers for quality might differ from yours.
Surprisingly decent. I agree with the other poster that it's just below the lego movie.
Good fun! Not an amazing movie but thoroughly watchable. I don't know a lot about D&D and at no point did I feel like I was missing some necessary background info.
I saw it last week and I think it's brilliant.
It's amazing. Highly recommend it!
Please no links to streaming sites or downloads please.
It was ok. Had it's moments
