The best Fantasy film since Avatar

Rating: 8/10 (16 June 2016)

I loved Warcraft. It really makes you think about the human condition, Take a look at the movie poster for this film;--it is fascinating, depicting the leaders of two warring factions, one with red war paint, and the other, with blue. The tag-line for the film is;-- "Two worlds; one home." So many films are centered around that whole "red vs. blue" thesis. And it seems like this trend has a real world gravitas to it, when you consider the fact that our civilization was always in a sort of civil war with itself.
But not just politically. In a sense, I found that these two particular factions in the film, the "orcs," and the "humans," represented the duality of man. The Orcs, our animal side, and the Royal Blue side, is our left-brain analytical computer brain side. The ideological conflict that arises in this film is no different than what we have gone through on this planet, conflicted between 2 worlds, the natural and technological, and cycling through revelation. And during the time of Revelation, the two sides of human nature will result in a conflict. The world will be divided into two groups. One group, will deal with the world's pressing problems with their conditioned, conservative, pre-programmed responses of the past, and the other group, will be ready to embrace change and step into the unknown.
The acting in this film was solid, Ben Foster stole the cake in my opinion. He's a fine actor that guy. I wish there was more make-up and set design in the film, but with CGI this good, It hardly irked me. The CGI and motion capture acting was some of the best I've ever seen! I look forward to a sequel!
