Why Jesus gave up on the world....after seeing "Warcraft"...

Rating: Null/10 (24 June 2016)

Well, if you are one of those people who've asked themselves, why has Jesus forsaken the world, and when is he coming back?! Your answers are, because of "Warcraft" and never.
I am not familiar with the game (games?!), so I am not judging them. The movie, while based on the game and perhaps appealing primarily to that fan base, should also try, at least try, to appeal to wider audiences who are perhaps not familiar with it.
Well it doesn't! This movie is unforgivingly boring, the cast is sub par and so is the acting...the directing and the production values are just underwhelming! Besides, seeing Ruth Negga and Dominic Cooper share the screen yet again, I can see why the TV series "Preacher" over on AMC sucks...
"Warcraft" also amounts to visual plagiarism of "The Lord Of The Rings" and "The Hobbit" movies...something it doesn't even try to hide.
I had high hopes, then just hope, then reasonable expectations, that "Warcraft" would deliver the kind of fun, well made, summer popcorn movie entertainment we've been missing. But it doesn't do any of those things. Instead "Warcraft" joins a long line of lame, crummy, lacklustre and failed video game adaptations.
I think that Jesus saw this movie...and suddenly realized he died for nothing, so he said "F **k it!" and then cancelled the Second Coming...
"Warcraft" is basically larping with a $170 million dollars budget!
