While it does skirt some game mechanics, probably due to it being a movie and it’s a strange medium to adapt, it also does some really cool subtle things with the mechanics. For example, in the final major fight all of the characters attack in the same order. They’re in initiative!
This, pretty much. Pretty hard to be 100% game accurate and make a good movie. Appreciated where they took license, and where they stuck to some (often, obscure) lore.

They also show one of the characters, the bad guy if I remember, having to use concentration for a spell!
