Entertaining

Rating: 6/10 (9 August 2017)

I am always a little skeptical about movies based on computer games, as they often turn out not so well. But this one did. A special effects extravaganza, of course, and with a not too complicated story, it is an action-filled entertaining movie.
More surprisingly, it manages quite well to stand for itself, I haven't played much of the game(s) (or read any of the books) but could still find my way into the story. If you are familiar to the franchise you might pick up more subtle references, but it worked well even without knowing much beforehand. You just need to be into the genre of fantasy and special effects.
