Dungeons and Dragons - Honor among theives

 

Yes I did this like this film. 

Hugh Grant plays a very large ham- He is well written until one last heel turn.

Lots of faces from Game of Thrones - East Enders etc


Chris Pine is playing a snarky MCU lead- but the script is a lot better than it should be. It has a lot digs at the absurdity of the situation - The Magic spells are used to cheat people as well as work wonders. 

It is actually in the same continuity into the 1980 cartoon - WOW. That is really Hank and Eric! 


Yes- it was a lot of fun

I want to thank my cousin Gerald for his quiet patient manner with my daughter

I would like to thank the staff of the wood hill house in Adara and Harvey's point in Donegal
