Who exactly was this made for?

Rating: 6/10 (14 July 2016)

I am pretty disappointed with this movie.
Don't get me wrong. It's still a decent movie, I gave it a six, it's verging on good, but not quite there.
There are a fair number of things in this movie that you won't notice or won't quite make sense if you aren't familiar with the material... they never get explained or commented on. But at the same time they seem to have randomly changed some things to no benefit, and even to fairly obvious detriment. There's no one they won't kinda annoy a bit.
'Decent' is pretty good for a movie, but this movie was a collaboration between LEGENDARY PICTURES and BLIZZARD. This should have been the best movie of the the year *easily*. It had everything lined up, it had piles of money behind it, but it just didn't quite...
It's still a solid movie, and it's still a good choice if you're not sure what you want to watch... but this *could* have been a epic to reverberate through the ages. It's really not though.
But hey, if you're bored, definitely go for it.
