Critics Consensus

Critics say this movie has a cheap look and is badly directed. Despite the presence of talented actors, the performances are really bad, and additionally, some people are offended at Marlon Wayans' character, calling it a racist throwback to black stereotypes.

Lisa Schwarzbaum Entertainment Weekly Rated: C Sep 7, 2011 Full Review BBC.com Rated: 2/5 Feb 26, 2003 Full Review Globe and Mail Rated: 1.5/4 Jan 24, 2003 Full Review Jeffrey M. Anderson Combustible Celluloid 'Dungeons & Dragons' is a very, very bad movie. Rated: 1/4 Jun 17, 2023 Full Review Kyle Wilson The Ringer If you’re wondering why it took until 2023 for Hollywood to turn the iconic role-playing game into a movie, that’s just how long it took to wash off the stink caused by this 2000 disasterpiece. Apr 3, 2023 Full Review Tim Brayton Antagony & Ecstasy Almost totally devoid of redeeming facets, not even really bad enough to be funny, since one of the things it is worst at is providing comedy. Rated: 1/10 Dec 4, 2016 Full Review Read all reviews

J. Scott G Excellent performances and great dragons! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/17/24 Full Review Daniel D I absolutely love the film. It's funny and simple made and it doesn't take itself too serious. The story is holding up and special effects is not always digital but made by hand. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/16/24 Full Review Oaklee D Bad acting, terrible CGI that looks like something off an early PS2 game, chunky dialogue with a script full of pot holes... So can someone PLEASE tell me why I enjoyed this as much as I did? Jeremy Irons clearly took the role for the pay day but is the definite highlight as he hams it up and has a blast. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 09/09/24 Full Review Max H You’d be rolling with a disadvantage on this one. You can check out my full review on my blog (maxholland93.blogspot.com) Also, subscribe to my YouTube channel (@Maxthemetalkid) Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 09/10/24 Full Review Radio O Oof pass go watch the one from 2023 Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 08/18/24 Full Review Istari D One of the worst movies i've ever watched. A reference on this field. Worth to watch for this reason only. You may laugh due to the terrible acting and story telling, the low cost special effects and some strange ideas like blue lipsstick for Damodar.
