Verdict of a lore fanatic: Good movie

Rating: 9/10 (26 May 2016)

So.. before seeing this movie I was praying "Please don't screw up the lore!", but even tho some major details that we get from the movie are different from the books & RPG, the main story line was respected in a great proportion. The screening was amazing the character build up was not bad, actually great for Garona and Lothar. You can see their evolution and their struggling, you can even feel their emotions and their pain which is great.

But if a guy who had never had contact with the books & games would seen this movie, I can clearly say that he would be a little confused about certain events. I am more talking here about Medivh. Ben Foster indeed made a good job playing him, but the character illustrated in the movie is very mysterious. He suffers a major change in the movie,and at one point we actually see him as being a totally different person/entity without getting a clue why and what determined him to become like that. Those who know the lore actually know the background of what happened, but thinking a bit more I am also expecting to get an explanation in possible the third movie as players got the first clues in the Warcraft 3 RPG.
***************** End of spoiler *********************
As a conclusion I believe the movie was actually quite good and I would really recommend it to anyone. It is not the best movie you have ever seen, but it is a nice illustrated story which is worth your time & cinema ticket money. I hope the next one will be great as well :)
