A fun and comedic adventure quest. Chris Pine plays Edgin Darvis, a man who turned to thievery after his wife was murdered, leaving him on his own to raise his young daughter, Kira. He joins up with warrior Holga (Michelle Rodriguez), sorcerer Simon (Justice Smith) and con-artist Forge (a deliciously devilish Hugh Grant). When an ambitious heist goes wrong, Edgin and Holga are imprisoned, before escaping two years later. In order to win back the trust of his daughter, Edgin must complete a quest for a resurrection tablet. There are a lot more details – involving corpses, zombies, enchantments, and underground worlds. And if you find that intimidating, be assured that the directors balance out the demands of D&D devotees and regular folk who have no idea what to make of all those high-concept fantasy elements.—News.com.au
