10 Exact Moments Recent Movies Won Us Over
10. Bradley Cooper's Cameo - Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves
Dungeons and Dragons: Honor Among Thieves touted a rock solid first act which suggested the rest of the movie was in good hands, but it was pushed over the top by a hilarious, hugely unexpected cameo at the start of act two.
Holga (Michelle Rodriguez) heads home to pick up some things, where she reunites with her halfling ex-husband Marlamin, who just so happens to be played by Bradley freakin' Cooper of all people.
Seeing a tiny Bradley Cooper sit with the much larger Holga in his home and have a surprisingly tender conversation about their former relationship is the moment at which Dungeons and Dragons proved it could be funny and take itself dramatically seriously all at the same time.
And the reveal that Marlamin's new partner, Gwinn (Hayley-Marie Axe), is also a barbarian just like Holga was the icing on the cake.
While Cooper's side of the scene was shot separately from Michelle Rodriguez due to pandemic restrictions, it impressively doesn't feel like any of the human warmth is lost.
