Review of Warcraft (2016) by Thereceptor — 09 Jun 2016
Comparable to the Shannara Chronicles, this is just plain bad.
Acting, script, characterisations... as with many movies in the end it´s just a boring CGI show, which makes no sense whatsoever. No humor, bad action sequences, nothing is comprehensible - it just feels like a senseless collection of scenes with slightly the same theme. I think no one even cared about it making sense a little bit or about continuity.
The design, while true to the games which I like btw., doesn´t fit the big screen in any way. It´s just plain ridiculous.
To the people, who seem to think, they must defend their beloved franchise by ignoring the failure of this movie: even as a WC fan you don´t need to like this to be a true fan, you know? It´s not heresy to be critical when something is as obviously bad as this adaption. Just think about, what would have been possible with some film making skills involved.
