A wonderful presentation of the World of Warcraft

Rating: 10/10 (1 December 2016)

In the fantastic world of Warcraft, the Orcs seek a new land to conquer as their previous home was destroyed. With the help of a powerful Mage, who learned how to control the dark arts of Fel, they open a portal to the peaceful human world and start attacking every living being. Meanwhile, the Alliance tries to reunite in order to prevent the imminent extermination which lies ahead. With the help of a curious character, known as the Guardian, the human race struggles to find the best solution to the attacks by focusing on the source, but it will prove to be a bigger challenge than they are ready for, especially when there are "surprises" to be uncovered by the main characters.
First of all, the action is placed directly into the Warcraft universe, which simply thrills me as a fan of the franchise. Seeing places like Stormwind or Ironforge, generated and animated in such detail simply gives me the chills. Beautifully designed and presented, this familiar world is truly warming, thus a film based on it can only bring excitement, but this is not enough to make it great. This is where the plot rolls on with its well shaped characters, its breath-taking action and, of course, its story.
I cannot find something bad about this film. I know I am a bit subjective because I simply adore Warcraft, but no matter how hard I try to find a weakness to it, I fail. It's packed with action, it fills you with drama, it grabs a smile from your face but it can also bring a lot of tears.
It's very easy to recommend this one to anybody. You can enjoy it and see it as a very good movie which it is without ever hearing a single word about its name or its incredible universe.
