Some of the plot elements are a stretch at best, completely illogical at worst, but if you're willing to ignore the fact that Rachel doesn't stop anyone to call the police immediately after being rammed off the road by a very angry Russell Crowe, then perhaps you'll find a tight thriller, with some tense action with a dark underbelly.
Crowe is genuinely quite terrifying, and his character isn't an unrealistic one. Situations such as this could happen (the movie thankfully just about stops short of beating one over the head with its message).
Unhinged is certainly flawed, but it's high octane action, memorable villain, and sudden dashes of brutality make it a compelling watch.

KyleQ (267 KP) rated Dungeons and Dragons: Honour Among Thieves (2023) in Movies
Apr 13, 2023
Honor Among Thieves moves along at a brisk pace, using plenty of humor, which is well delivered by its humorous cast.
I was particularly worried from the trailer that this would be too focused on action and humor. Thankfully it wasn't.
Characters all have different backstories, though they are all quite predictable.
The main villain is very interesting and intense.
Action sequences are spaced out, well-choreographed, and quite clever.
Overall, Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves doesn't really do anything new or different for the fantasy adventure genre. But what it does, it does well.
Very enjoyable, and a good introduction for D&D into the world of cinema.
