"Very watchable"
3 stars"

The critics slammed it, but I enjoyed it. Characters and creatures seemed like a mixture of Lord of the Rings/Game of Thrones/Harry Potter. I haven't played the games so have nothing to compare it to, but the animation was awesome, and it was a good basic fantasy/action/sci-fi war story.

"Not good."
2 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

A consistently poor movie that proves difficult to watch for even the most ardent of Warcraft/Bliz­zard fans.

"What an Amazing Movie"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Linus Roache (from Vikings) plays a dramatic role in this powerful movie. Though based on a game the movie builds intrigue and interest from the opening moments. The character development is well paced and in depth not to the detriment of the speed of the movie. Watch out Star Wars War craft could be nipping at your heels a long running epic series.

Description

The peaceful realm of Azeroth stands on the brink of war as its civilization faces a fearsome race of invaders: orc warriors fleeing their dying home to colonize another. As a portal opens to connect the two worlds, one army faces destruction and the other faces extinction. From opposing sides, two heroes are set on a collision course that will decide the fate of their family, their people, and their home.

Warcraft Reviews

“This franchise itself is like a portal to new adventures where the action is for ever open-ended, and fresh personalities and intrigue lie in wait. So far, this video game epic is pushing the right buttons.” – Independent Online

“Jones maintains patience with the tale and delivers compelling visuals, allowing those capable of surrendering to the material a chance to immerse themselves in storytelling expanse.” – Blu-ray.com

“Bold, unapologetic, hardcore fantasy. There are times when it feels like watching an '80s heavy metal album cover in cinematic form, which isn't necessarily a bad thing.” – Tribune News Service
