company website.Grant also admitted that, although he stars in the movie, he’s never actually played “Dungeons & Dragons” — but not for Pine’s lack of trying to convince his costar to join in on the nearly 50-year-old role-playing game while on set. Grant previously claimed on “The Late Show With Stephen Colbert” that the behind-the-scenes aspect of filming is no longer as fun as is once was.“Films are so weird now.

awarded the first film zero stars — few people saw and even fewer remember. Running time: 134 minutes. Rated PG-13 (fantasy action/violence and some language.) In theaters.And the source material, the role-playing game “Dungeons & Dragons,” is famously confusing and impenetrable to outsiders.

“Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves” (out this Friday) is a movie that introduces audiences to an entire world – one full of magical creatures, dangerous enchantments and larger-than-life characters. It’s the kind of world that you want to learn more about and the type of movie that is just as fascinating (seriously, how can you not get excited about a movie with this many animatronic creatures?) Thankfully, you can learn all about the making of the movie starting on April 4.

Marc Malkin Senior Film Awards, Events & Lifestyle Editor Chris Pine is hopeful that “Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves” gives moviegoers a true escape from real-world problems. “I’ve seen this film probably more than I’ve seen many of my other films because I love watching it with an audience,” the actor told me on Sunday at the film’s Los Angeles premiere. “To come out and see audience’s faces, you see exactly what cinema should do, which is people are, like, alive. They want to talk about it. They’re in a great mood.

Pine stars alongside Michelle Rodriguez, Regé-Jean Page, Justin Smith, Sophia Lillis, Hugh Grant and Daisy Head.

adores it. The beloved table-top game, which was introduced nearly 50 years ago, is just that: beloved — which is why it might be puzzling that it took so many years for the property to be adapted for the screen.

With Hollywood now turning to franchises like “The Last of Us” and “Borderlands” in the search for new audiences, it might be safe to say that video games are no longer the untapped frontier of adaptations. And that might mean it is the tabletop industry’s time to shine.

Owen Gleiberman Chief Film Critic Introducing “Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves,” the lavish hyperkinetic popcorn fairy tale that kicked off SXSW this evening, the film’s co-directors, John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein, told the audience that they had designed the movie to appeal to hardcore D&D players — and also to those who know absolutely nothing about the game.
