Opinion seems divided on the movie. Seems to have about 93% positive reviews on Rotten Tomatoes from the audience, and 90% from critics.

So many terrible names."Xenk Yendar", "Szass Tam", "Mordenkainen", "Themberchaud". Who makes up this shit?

I don't recognise the others, but Mordenkainen was a Gary Gygax character going back to 1973.

Edit: The others are forgotten realms characters.

Such terrible names. Almost as bad as George Lucas' names for Star Wars characters after the original movie.

(I have a tiny suspicion that the reason Star Wars was so amazing and everything that followed was ... less amazing ... is that Lucas' ex-wife had a major uncredited role in writing the first but not the others.)
