I'm not saying Warcraft's IMDb reviews are fake/paid...

Rating: 2/10 (3 August 2016)

...but they very well basically might be. OK, I'm saying that. They're paid reviews. The positive reviews are fake. This movie is not good. Use your judgment. Don't be a fool. There are people who get paid to write fake reviews. Of course everyone knew Warcraft was going to be a trash movie, just like the game has been going totally downhill since 2011 or so. Of course a huge company is going to pay PR companies to write positive reviews and artificially buff the score of the film. Why wouldn't they do that? So, I'm not necessarily upset about that. They made a movie, they want to make money off of it. But the movie shouldn't have been made to begin with. This film just randomly throws in a bunch of superficial aspects of the game (e.g., Oooh, they're flying on Griffins!) with some atrocious writing and acting. The film exemplifies just how bad the game has gotten and how removed it is from the actual culture of WoW and all the things that made the game appealing and good. The movie is downright awful. The scene where the orc chick calls out the insufferably nerdy mage for wanting to go to bed with her, and then refusing, is so completely telling of the targeted demographic of this film. The demographic is the nerdy mage. It's too bad this film was made. I'll admit the game was really great in it's heyday and started to decline with Lich King and overcomplicating and over-noobifying everything. Any true fan of the game will agree with me. Don't watch this film.
