When the dust all settles after the final confrontation, the biggest revelations are the emotional ones about letting go of the past.
The Big Picture The most pressing questions left after the rather fun fantasy romp that is Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves don’t surround its plot, themes, or world-building, as these are all quite straightforward. However, there is an emotional journey that it takes us on and results in a conclusion where a significant death is reversed that is worth breaking down.
As some brief context, the film follows the aforementioned Edgin who finds himself locked away with his fellow thief Holga in an icy prison after a job goes awry. Even when they manage to escape, they discover the whole reason they were there is because they were betrayed by someone they once counted as a friend. The selfish Forge sold them out to the mysterious sorceress Sofina who is intending to use dark magic to build an army of undead soldiers. You know, typical end-of-the-world stakes.
The Real Treasure Were The Friends We Made Along The Way While he had been clinging to this dream of bringing his departed wife back, Edgin decides it cannot come at the expense of Holga after all that they have been through together. When he subsequently brings her back, she is stunned at her resurrection. She proclaims that this magic should not have been wasted on her, but she still embraces the people that she thought she would never see again.
In particular, Edgin actually made a plan that worked and also helped him to come to terms with all he had been carrying with up until now. While the film never took itself too seriously, the confrontation with the reality that Holga could die brought into focus what it was that mattered in the here and now. He still cracked plenty of jokes, but that was not something Edgin had been fully ready to face until this moment.
