Warcraft: A beautiful but rough piece of "game adapted" cinema!

Rating: 6/10 (6 June 2016)

Can critics please stop comparing this movie to Lord of the Rings! Simply because they both have orcs and war, doesn't mean they are the god damn same! Or that this movie tries to imitate it!
In my opinion this movie is gorgeous to look at. A technical delight, especially in the animations of the orcs. Set pieces are creative and colorful, and the visual presentation of the characters are also very creative. Sure the story can be a bit inconsistent, and the acting leaves some to be desired. But i still feel like this movie has a beautiful presentation, a serious take on the lore of Warcraft with a well-rounded story and cool scenes and characters. In addition, I find the topic of duality within the orcish society and within themselves to be both interesting and dare I say original for this genre.
