Doesn't do the name warcraft justice, watch and take it with a pinch of salt :)

Rating: 5/10 (20 June 2016)

Me and my wife decided to watch this because we used to play world of warcraft. We thought watching this would be a fun reminiscent of our earlier years together.
The movie started well enough, I love how the orcs look, I love how the movie shows us the different cities in warcraft, but then the movie lose me halfway through. I understand the movie was made for warcraft gamer, but a movie should stand by its own merit. You can't create a movie and expect people to already knows the lore behind it. And based on that, no I don't think the movie stand by its own.
The good: - In game items come to life (The ride, the magic) - The orcs looks good - Cities and locations are pretty much spot on - Murloc as cameo
The bad: - Pacing was really bad, we're being led from one scene to another without real sense of purpose. There was one time in the movie where I checked my watch and groaned that it's not over yet. - Acting was pretty meh (Travis Fimmel is so one dimensional, it's almost like watching Ragnar Lothbrok got stuck in a different movie setting). - Bad writing (that supposed "romance" scene, I cringe every time) - Dwarf and Elves look fake as F***.
So yeah, I don't enjoy the movie that I would love to like. Maybe I'm just getting old, but this movie doesn't do the name Warcraft justice.
People should stop rating these movie 10/10 just because they are fans of the game. Clearly there are a lot of audiences that really enjoy this movie, but for me it's an average movie at its best! 6/10
