Not his best work

Rating: 5/10 (28 May 2016)

I really like Duncan Jones. I think he is a talented Director and Moon is one of my favorite Movies. I never played the World of Warcraft Games and I only went to see this movie because Duncan Jones directed it. I had hopes for it but in the end I was a bit disappointed. It is certainly not a bad movie. I think it is one of the best Video Game movies, which is obviously not saying much but you can really see that there was passion behind this project.
Duncan Jones played World of Warcraft and a lot of the Actors and a lot of the Actors did to and you really can feel that this isn't a Uwe Boll movie or something. The acting was OK i guess nothing groundbreaking but it wasn't awful. The visuals weren't bad either although it was a little bit too much CGI. What I also like is that it was easy to understand and you didn't have to play the games to be able to follow the Story.
My complaints with the movie are the Characters and the story. The Characters weren't that bad, but at no point in the movie did i really care for them and i didn't feel any emotions when some of them died. The Story was predictable and also at times not progressing so that I got a little bit bored. Also sometimes there was too much going on and it couldn't focus that well.
All in all the movie isn't bad but it isn't good either. I think Fans of the Game will be able to enjoy it. I'm looking forward to Duncan's next movie and if you haven't seen Moon watch it is great.
5.5/10
