Dungeons & Dragons: Honour Among Thieves (2023) Review

A month ago at the point of Quantumania’s release I was discussing superhero fatigue, especially with the MCU. However now it seems it may in fact be fatigue of cinema as a whole! 2023...what have you done.

Plot: A charming thief and a band of unlikely adventurers embark on an epic quest to retrieve a long lost relic, but their charming adventure goes dangerously awry when they run afoul of the wrong people.

Straight off the bat I’ll say that I am not really an avid diehard D&D fan. I have played a few games during university with one of my more nerdier mates back then. Yeah, you know the one. Everyone has that one geek king in their uni years who’s an expert in all things pop culture, comics, movies and D&D. So yeah, that cool dude! However outside of those few D&D sessions where I’d cameo as my dwarf character that I aptly named Gimli the Second, my knowledge of this trademark tabletop game begins and ends there. So of course I won’t get all the references and Easter eggs that are sure to please fans in this movie. That being said, as more of a casual viewer I must say...I didn’t really like this movie.

I know, I know, many of you liked this one. I’ve seen the positive critical reviews on Rotten Tomatoes and the excited audience response on IMDb. Yet I am not one of these lucky chums. Look, I’ve been getting really frustrated with the sheer mediocrity that Hollywood has been churning out recently. This year alone we had Adam Driver take on dinosaurs and somehow make it boring; M Night Shyamalan tackled the end of the world and there was no signature big twist; Nicolas Cage starred in his first ever western and surprisingly did not Cage-rage once; the new MCU big bad Kang ended up not being that intimidating...look, it’s been a crappy year for films so far. The fact that I’m considering Cocaine Bear at the top spot is heavily concerning. Now we have the new Dungeons & Dragons movie that I personally found to reinstate that fact of banality.

The plot of the film is filled with predictable clichés all ripped from the likes of Lord of the Rings, Guardians of the Galaxy and The Princess Bride, only all those did it better. I found myself daydreaming multiple times throughout the movie and being flat out bored by a lot of what was going on. It was a weak narrative with very cringeworthy dialogue. Heck, even the comedy wasn’t really good. Hugh Grant does his usual over the top shtick, yet even though that worked superbly for him in Guy Ritchie’s The Gentlemen, in here it came off pompous and annoying. Chris Pine, as charming as he may be, is miscast as the lead bard, as the main character is supposed to be more of a know-it-all doofus, as such I feel someone like Jason Bateman would have fit the part more. In fact, this movie is directed and produced by John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein, whom both worked with Bateman previously on Game Night and Horrible Bosses, so I feel like they may have even had him in mind when they first wrote the script. Michelle Rodriguez is bland as ever, Sophia Lillis is forgettable, Rege-Jean Page was only cast for his looks and Daisy Head isn’t menacing enough as the villain. Justice Smith is the only one really who actually got some laughs out of the audience in my cinema, and also the only one to really have a proper character arc in the whole movie.

The visuals in all fairness were solid. The creature designs were realised really well, and the use of some practical effects is always a welcome. But overall this D&D adventure came off as a lazy fantasy rehash, and one that offered minimum thrill. Again, this may appeal more to hardcore fans of the original game, but overall the cure of 2023 movie mediocrity continues. Here’s hoping Chris Pratt voicing Mario isn’t as bad as it sounds...

Overall score: 4/10

Argentina Set A Total Football Clash v. the Netherlands to Start the Knock-Out Stage

Memphis Depay celebrated his goal against the United States of America (📸 Reuters via The Telegraph)

The first set of the knock-out stage matches began with the Netherlands taking the United States of America, continued by Argentina facing Australia. On paper, it looked doable for both the Netherlands and Argentina. On the field? This is how everything unfolded.

Netherlands v. United States of America

The tactical view for 15 seconds before the Netherlands' first goal v. the United States (🎥 Kan 11 IL additional feed)

The Netherlands started in fiery fashion as Cody Gakpo led the continued assistance from one pass to another, where Denzel Dumfries cut it back from the edge of the box and was perfectly executed by Memphis Depay to secure the 1-0 lead. While the United States tried to outpace the Netherlands in the first half by attacking more, they did not come to fruition until the Netherlands scored another goal during the injury time (45+1'), where Daley Blind perfectly nailed the last kick from the previous contributions.

A team's capability to accurately convert their defense into offense was tested in the second set, where both teams had their own chances (some were notably close) before the United States minimized its margin 1-2 from Haji Wright's goal, which caught the Dutch defense off-guard at 75', being assisted by Christian Pulisic from the right. While most chances became on-target near the end of the second half, Dumfries scored again at 81' after receiving an assist from Blind in an undefended spot, converting it into a goal to strengthen their 3-1 lead. Both teams hung on until the final whistle, with the Netherlands becoming the first to qualify in the semifinal.

In the quarterfinals, they will face the winner of the match after them, which was Argentina v. Australia.

Argentina v. Australia

Lionel Messi's goal celebration, which secured the 1-0 lead v. Australia (📸 Athletistic)

Both Argentina and Australia started sluggishly in flow (still floating with unclear direction, no one could create offense) before contact between Lionel Messi and Aziz Behich, which resulted in a free kick, where after several passes until it reached Nicolas Otamendi, Messi executed it straight away at 35' to score a goal in his 1000th international match. Both teams held on until the end of the first half.

Argentina tried to maintain its pace in the second half as Australia tried to increase its intensity. However, Argentina's pace maintenance came to fruition in 57', where the misplay from Matt Ryan enabled the Argentinean side to put more pressure, hence Julian Alvarez was able to score a goal on an undefended pitch, securing their lead 2-0. Argentina's ability to maximize their on-target chances enabled them to have several more possible goals (for example how Messi's chance at 64' was saved by the Australian defense) until the moment when they were caught off-guard after a good strike from Craig Goodwin at 77', but deflected towards Enzo Fernandez, hence this being recognized as the latter's own goal.

Australia was then "fired up really late" from several notable chances toward the end of the match, in hopes of an equalizer. One of those chances came from Behich, who sprinted to the box but found himself tackled by Lisandro Martinez in defense at 81'. Toward the end of the match, it must be hurtful for Australia as Garang Kuol "free-ran" himself, fired a shot that was saved by Emiliano Martinez right before the final whistle. When the final whistle blew, it was over for Australia: Argentina advanced to the quarterfinals.

Netherlands v. Argentina: Short Flow Preview

Daley Blind and Lionel Messi back in the 2014 FIFA World Cup semifinal, which ended with the Argentinean victory after the penalty shootout (📸 MLS)

While this outcome sets a total football clash between the Netherlands and Argentina, where effective collaboration and points construction will be tested. One of the moments that was kept brought up was Dennis Bergkamp's goal from the 1998 FIFA World Cup, where he completed the shot in an excellent angle, and how he stayed in composure despite the pressures coming from the Argentinean side back then.

Knowing the possible "key players," such as but not limited to Gakpo, Dumfries, and Depay for the Netherlands, and the likes of Messi, de Paul, and Mac Allister for Argentina, among others, this would be an exciting match to follow. One could think of the involvement of the penalty shootouts to settle this match since the level looked equal on paper (a possible close match here), but the team who maximized their offense by executing their shots more accurately will prevail. Definitely worth watching/following, and the intensity will deliver.
