I haven’t stopped to verify, but in the battle at the end, they apparently all attack in initiative order each lasting about six seconds. It’s those little attention to detail bits that make it fun for players, on top of being enjoyable for non-players as a fantasy action movie.
Yep, and you can tell what spells they’re using pretty often (obviously adapted for screen) without someone yelling “Your Maximillion’s Earthen Grasp is no match for my Bigby’s Hand!” so it’s fun as a player to see that as well.
There are scenes where you can very much see the rolls being made and how the “players” are dealing with them. And I like that a lot about it.
And also the parts where the GM is going “this would make the scene better even though it doesn’t work that way” like the scene in the graveyard.
