If you have just recently developed an interest in D&D, then you might enjoy it. I think it was designed with a lot of 3rd Edition rules in mind.

I'm an "old-timer" - strictly 1st Edition type-of-guy. I've been gaming for about 15 years, so I had pretty high hopes for the movie. While I was generally disappointed with the movie overall, there WERE a few parts that I felt were excellent and well done.

One "thumbs up" were the "fights" between the main character (thief) and the one of the main henchmen (fighter). As the fight progressed, the fighter would gain a definite advantage, which holds true to the rules. There were other bright areas and an equal number of very "not bright" areas.

I won't "spoil" those (unless you ask). My suggestion...for $4.00 bucks, why not? It is no more mindless than your average Steven Segall or Van Damme movie..and like those, it provides short-term, no brainer entertainment.</font>
