…(looking at you, 2023’s “Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves”)…
The irreverent tone harkens back to “Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves” and “Thor: Ragnarok,” movies that captured the spirit of their source material.
If you were expecting “Masters of the Universe” (2026) (“MOTU”) to be the second coming of “Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves” (2023), you will be sorely disappointed.
En ese sentido, la referencia cercana más evidente es 'Dungeons & Dragons: Honor entre ladrones'. Ambas comparten una comprensión muy parecida de la fantasía como terreno para la aventura, la acción y el humor con espacio suficiente para personajes genuinamente entrañables.
I’m reminded of other movies with ostensibly silly premises that pulled off the magic trick of being better than expected, 2023’s Dungeons and Dragons and 2003’s Pirates of the Caribbean.
