Thieves steal the show

THE latest film offering, Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves brings the rich world and playful spirit of the legendary roleplaying game to the big screen in a hilarious and action-packed adventure.

A charming thief and a band of unlikely adventurers undertake an epic heist to retrieve a lost relic, but things go dangerously awry when they run foul of the wrong people.

Honor Among Thieves stars Chris Pine and Michelle Rodriguez as professional bard Edgin Darvis and axe-wielder Holga la Barbare, who were once part of a band of criminals that carried out heists alongside sorcerer Simon Aumar (Justice Smith) and cunning Forge Fletcher (Hugh Grant).

After Edgin agrees to a particularly dangerous job in the hope of acquiring an artefact that would enable him to resurrect his deceased wife, the group are captured or scattered to the winds.

After breaking out of prison – in an undeniably fun scene involving an aarakocra, one of D&D’s bird people – Edgin and Holga must gather a new team to steal the artefact again and regain the trust of Edgin’s daughter.

The film is directed by John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein. The cast includes Rege-Jean Page, Sophia Lillis, Chloe Coleman and Daisy Head.

Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves is now showing at Showbiz Cinemas Swan Hill.
