In his four-star review of Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves, guest-host Christian Hoffer had the following breakdown, as a longtime D&D fan:
Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves gets off to a slow start but quickly becomes an enjoyable blockbuster film that mixes action, humor, and heart. The new movie directed by John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein leverages the rich world of Dungeons & Dragons to tell the same kind of story that one would tell when playing an actual Dungeons & Dragons game, with a group of misfit characters overcoming the odds to complete a specific mission and save the world in the process. While neither the characters nor the plot of Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves are particularly unique, the movie captures the balance of humor and heart found in the best kinds of Dungeons & Dragons campaigns, although it takes a bit for the movie to truly find its groove... By figuring out that the strength of Dungeons & Dragons isn't the rules of the game or the worlds that support it, but rather the intrinsic fun that comes with getting into fantasy shenanigans with people you like, Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves is both enjoyable and a true representation of the game itself.
