Even if it did lay it on a little to marvel-y with some of the jokes the action was good and I think it did the source material well. It was a delight to see my favorite D&D monsters in a movie, I pogged when the displacer beast showed up.

      I watched it on a rental vhs that had the text crawl every ten minutes saying "for promotional purposes only, not for rental or purchase" lmao it really was bad, so bad the video store didn't stock a real copy. We MST3K style roasted the shit out of it.

      Jeremy Irons overacted so hard it boomerangs back to being a great performance

      It's one of the few movies that I think really earns the title "so bad it's good." As the other person posted, Jeremy Irons' extreme overacting is easily the highlight of the film.
