Chris Pine's 'Dungeons & Dragons Honor Among Thieves' leads Box Office with $15M opening
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Hear, hear 'Dungeons & Dragons' fans as most of the review reads that the Chris Pine starring movie is nothing short of a "cinematic universe," and we cannot deny as the opening numbers at the box office do reflect the film's popularity. The fantasy heist action comedy film is helmed by Jonathan Goldstein and John Francis Daley. Daley also co-wrote the screenplay with Michael Gilio from a story by Chris McKay and Gilio. Nonetheless, it is based on the tabletop role-playing game 'Dungeons & Dragons,' to be more specific, it is set in the 'Forgotten Realms' campaign setting, and has no connections to the film trilogy released between 2000 and 2012. The March 31 released movie has received positive reviews from critics who praised the direction, visual effects, action sequences, emotional weight, performances, tone, humor, and the cast's chemistry. The fantasy heist action comedy film stars Chris Pine, Michelle Rodriguez, Regé-Jean Page, Justice Smith, Sophia Lillis, and Hugh Grant.
