Seriously, guys, you need to check out this awesome back scratcher I just got. – Photos: UIP MalaysiaCast: Chris Pine, Michelle Rodriguez, Regé-Jean Page, Justice Smith, Sophia Lillis, and Hugh Grant.

For at least 20 years, it’s been obvious that the geeks shall inherit the earth, pop culturally speaking. Comic books have crawled out of the cons to dominate mainstream movie culture,First published in 1974, the popular fantasy role-playing game has mostly been relegated to a punchline in media . But now, the medieval-inspired game gets a splashy, big budget blockbuster adaptation, replete with swaggering charm and sex appeal. In a perfectly full-circle media moment,is co-directed and co-written by John Francis Daley, who played one of the primary geeks on Judd Apatow’s short-lived but much beloved comedy seriesWell, the Round Table is significantly smaller than I thought it would be.

Daley and co-director Jonathan Goldstein co-wrote the script with Michael Gilio, and they take a genius approach to bringing D&D to the masses, smuggling the heavy-duty lore of the game into a garden-variety bank heist plot.in a fantasy setting, with massive movie stars riffing on their well-known personae offering a crucial assist.

Daley and Goldstein don’t ask their team of actors to stretch much beyond what we already know and love about them. Chris Pine is on the charm offensive, Michelle Rodriguez plays a tough warrior and Hugh Grant grins and fumbles and fops endearingly, as he has for decades.With this trio in place, tackling a familiar plot, Daley and Goldstein thread D&D mythos throughout in a way that’s not too challenging for a newbie, but will serve as a treat for the experienced player.
