surprisingly good

Rating: 8/10 (8 November 2016)

I thought it would be a kind of dumb children's film (considering what happened to the actual game of world of warcraft over the years as it changed from being a game for geeky adults, into getting dumbed down and made like a cartoon game to cater to a younger and younger audience) but actually this film felt more like it was intended for the older adult audience, whilst still being appropriate for younger people. It wasn't super violent or realistic but it was more violent than I expected, which was a good thing for me. Some of the acting was pretty good and some of it was pretty bad, actually its funny because the orc characters felt most believable even though they are cgi and they had great voice acting, whilst some of the human characters such as the king just seems like terrible actors which took me out of the immersion a bit. It's kind of the same for the cgi some pretty good and some pretty bad. The story will make anyone nostalgic of the burning crusade world of warcraft expansion and overall I enjoyed the film a lot more than I thought I would, I hope they make more and I hope the acting is better and I hope the human characters and I the CGI characters can kind of blend in a bit better in the future films.
