Surprisingly Exceeds All Expectations

Rating: 10/10 (21 June 2016)

I have to admit, even though I counted down the days to the release in great anticipation, I had my doubts and concerns on how they intended to base the plot.
1- Worried they would do as many anticipated, WOW themed, and was not thrilled (explained in #3). Then the first trailer came out and I find the plot is centered around the actual story-line and explaining the birth of Warcraft. First concern reassured and +1 in approval. 2- Worried it would turn out like 99% of 'game inspired movies' and flop. When in reality I can't really think of anything that could have made this film any better. The CGI was some of the best I've seen, it was extremely well written, and very well performed. Hands down the best 'game inspired movie' of all time and adding to my approval +8. 3- Worried it would end up as a 'one&done' film. The way this film played out left a gaping hole of possibilities for the series to grow making me foresee, at the very least, two more films coming our way adding a final +2 to my approval. **For those paying attention, yes that adds up to 11 but IMDb will only allow a max rating of 10.**
In conclusion, I am relieved to say this turned out to be nothing I expected, but instead, exceeded all my expectations and threw up a big "F#$% You" to all my doubts during pre-production and filming. This is absolutely the movie to see for any Blizzard fan, SyFi fan, and, in my opinion, even those who are not fans will still enjoy this movie.
