Better than the other D&D movies by a lot. It’s fun and occasionally funny, nothing really epic or rewatchable about it. The cast did a pretty good job with their characters, some really captured the their archetype with the antisocial Druid, and too good to be around paladin. The self doubting wizard is way overdone. The speak with dead gag is exactly what would happen, with real gamers but they don’t drag it out till it’s painful.

The totality telegraphed and obvious evil plan was stopped by distracting the towns people away from it’s effects. Couldn’t bother to lock them in or maybe a spell, to trap them if all it takes to avoid your evil master plan is to leave?

There is sorta dungeon crawling and a few dragons so at least they got that right.
