Good fun for sure. It's not often we get good fantasy movies. I went in with pretty low expectations, and left pleasantly surprised.

That being said, it's definitely a movie "for the fans." I'm not sure the uninitiated would understand a lot of the film, and might even find the -extremely- high fantasy setting to be a bit suffocating. I found myself often wondering how I would have known something if I had never played the games before.

My two biggest gripes would be the pacing and the character development, which kind of go hand in hand in a way. I found myself wanting more development, more screen time... I wanted to get to know these people more than I was able to. It falls short here.

All things aside though I feel they really did a great job bringing Azeroth to life. I hope the movie is successful. It was a lot of fun to watch and was on some level emotional for me as a life long fan. If you're a fan of fantasy and big, loud adventures then I think you will enjoy it.

I'm giving it a 7. It's on the higher end of how I may really feel about it.

Here's a few short review points to go off of.

Cons.

- The story's fluency. This is probably the biggest problem with the movie as a whole. We were told the movie had multiple directors (Which I dont know if they all worked separately to form a giant mess...) but at the times the movies jumps ALL over the place. Did not seem like they had a solid script to go off of. Scenes randomly ended, and the transition to the next scene was worse than the one before.

-Acting was bad. the female orc Garona (or half human/orc) was very hard to believe.

Pros.

+ CGI was great

+ Some battles were awesome

+ A lot of cool classes, magic, etc, lore from the game

+ The last 30 minutes or so was very well done. The story had you drawn in, the characters were building, the action was intense. After seeing the ending of the movie, I said.. The Warcraft series can easily have many sequels to come just like the Marvel franchise. They just need to work on the holes of the movie, which is mostly story telling, script, and directing. (ugh, sounds like everything)

---

Verdict.

If you are a HUGE Warcraft fan, go see it. The ending alone will make up for it. I for myself, fell asleep for a good 20 minutes. The filler was bad and some plots were all over the place, but if you can look pass it, there's something to enjoy here.

Gul'dan is one of the most cool villain that i ever seen on big screen.

The sound is, as expected, epic and the visual effects are totally stunning.

As i said, i really didn't know why about that awful reviews of critics.

Though some of their criticisms are valid, there was so much to enjoy, and the good outweighs the bad by far. It was genuinely a good story, great CGI, good acting, and at times, quite moving. I felt true concern for the heroes on both sides of the war, particularly Lothar and Durotan, which is a credit to the creators because I know they wanted to achieve that. I definitely had tears in my eyes a few times during some sad moments (and there were several). And fans of the game like me will surely enjoy seeing key places in Azeroth and some of the game's humanoid races brought to life.
I do agree that there should have been a bit more character development, and the plot moved along too fast at times, leaving people confused. I would have been fine with a little longer movie if they allowed more time for those things. I saw it in 3-D, which really brought me into the film. It was obvious that the scenes were designed to be particularly appealing in a 3-D movie, and it really worked well.
I enjoyed the movie and look forward to the next, hoping that together with international sales, the producers find that it will be worthwhile to make the sequel. If so, I hope the writers listen to at least some of the criticisms regarding the character development and overly fast pace, so these factors can be improved for the next installment.

I should preface this by saying that not only was I SURE this movie would be terrible, I was SO sure that over time I started actively rooting against the film.

SO, it came as a surprise that what I got instead was a decent fantasy movie. One that I enjoyed more than any of the Hobbit movies, even with all of the obvious setting up of future movies (studios need to stop doing this), lackluster acting, and some cheap effects, the movie came off as a solid 7/10 film for me.

Duncan Jones did the fans of the series real service, maybe even too much; I played a lot of WoW years ago, and grew up playing the RTS series, so I was very at home in the world, but I don't know how well the world-building was fed to the uninitiated. There was a lot going on in a movie that was 2 hours long.

Ultimately, I got used to the CGI in the same way I did the new Planet of the Apes movies, so the fights were fun, Gul'dan and his death magic were awesome, and it was oddly not predictable.

I don't understand why this film got such a low score, it had a few problems, but overall was an amazing film.

First of all the CGI for the orcs! That might be the best CGI characters I have ever seen in a movie ever. While I agree the human side of the story lacked some depth, the orc side was very compelling. You felt for these characters Durotan, Garona and Orgrim were very well done. Gul'dan was a very terrifying villain and really evokes great emotion on screen. The actors who did play human characters, notably Medivh and Lothar were excellent. The battle scenes were friggen awesome. This movie is HIGHLY underrated in my opinion.

Even with a talented director; a video game based movie will never be four star material. The same will probably be proven by Assassin's Creed. Warcraft however was better than I expected and one of the better video game based movies.
The film still lacked great story telling though or a good reason for existing. However the musical score was at least solid and there was some good fantasy; I admit. In the end it probably would been better if they didn't leave it open for sequels. The film is a hit in China. In the U.S, it might not have been enough of a hit for sequels unfortunately.

I don't generally like movies based on video games but I enjoyed this one. Is it a Hollywood blockbuster? - no. Is it what is should be - a decent tribute to the video game it is based on with decent quality CGI and acting - yes. If you are a fan of the World of Warcraft video game or ever have been then you will enjoy this movie. I think it can still be enjoyable by people who haven't played the game too. At least it has originality compared to all of the lousy Hollywood reboots that have been put out lately. It is just a fun movie, no gender politics or anything thrown in to ruin it as has happened to many other franchises lately. Expand

Either way, I enjoyed the movie quite a bit and frankly I can recommend it because hey, it's a nice fantasy flick even if you're not a huge fan of the Warcraft series and if anything I still hope for more one day.

It has potential for sure!

Thank you so much for doing such a perfect adaptation from the game, I enjoyed it from the beginning to the end. I know Warcraft 3, but did not play WoW much, I even watched this movie twice and still I have been entertained greatly. Some people wrote, that they didnt like the characters. Durotan was a great character: full of wisdom. I liked his calm way of solving problems. Medivh and Khadgar were very interesting characters also and all of them fit perfectly into the Warcraft world. Only Lothar was a bit unsympathic in the beginnning.

There is another thing I liked so much: I was often wondering, why there are not so many fantasy movies with a lot of spells, like in the games. With the spells you can play with beautiful effects, they would fit in there a lot. And here you have many spells.
Another thing that I liked was the perspective of the film: I saw much more about the orc culture than that of the humans. It was very interesting.
The story is superb also with some sad moments.

So please, do the 2nd part.

Ignore the critics on this one. Worse than the mario bros movie? Don't make me laugh.

Is the movie perfect? Not at all. Was it still entertaining? Absolutely

I went with 2 friends, a guy and a girl, who have never touched the Warcraft series at all and know nothing about it. They both really enjoyed the movie and zero problems following it.

The CGI was FANTASTIC, the magic looked good and fit within the Warcraft world. Acting varied from good to meh. Some of the best moments were between Durotan and Drakka. They had great chemistry, especially for being CGI orcs.

Yes, the movie is flawed and Duncan Jones has already commented on how much he had to cut to meet studio demands for the length. This was detrimental to several plot points (such as never explaining what happened to the orc homeworld, what fel is, etc).

I'm hoping the film made enough to warrant a sequel so that we can begin moving to the games that actually had stories (WC1, what this film was based on, was the most bare-bones plot of all the games).

These things matter. The quality of a piece of art is not only in the art object itself, it's also in the social environment, in the art consumers' expectations. If it fits the audience and generates intense resonance in the audience, it's good art, regardless of any boxes ticked or not ticked on some dead-inside "quality inspectors"' checklists. Expand

Warcraft le commencement
Je connais vaguement l'univers du jeu vidéo de Blizzard sur lequel c'est appuyé le réalisateur Duncan Jones.
Commençons par le plus triste je préfère le seigneur des anneaux.
Des scènes d'action centrée sur les personnages c'est bien, tout le film c'est trop.
Des effets spéciaux surement très chers, mais pas assez fondus et trop flous (la caméra bouge trop vite en mouvement lisse) cependant les particules et lumières sont très réussies.
Le côté jeux vidéo est totalement assumé, c'est peux être pour cette raison que les effets sont comme ça.
J'ai adoré les déplacements de la caméra sur ce qui semblerait une carte (petit clin d'oeil au jeu).
-Une belle 3D, mais pas vraiment utile ... c'est dommage pour un film comme ça.
-Les musiques sont bonnes, mais moins que Game of Thrones merci Ramin Djawadi.
-Un Dolby Atmos rarement utilisé.
Bref ça se laisse manger, mais je ne suis pas tellement fan.

Senaryo bakımından yeterli bulduğum, yine de bazı eksikleri olan fakat Aksiyon bakımından bu eksiği dolduran bir film olmuş. Tanıdık yüzlerin oynaması da ayrı bir güzellik olmuş benim açımdan.

And it would be wonderful if this film crept up to the amazing Lord of the Rings. Of course, Warcraft is not the Lord of the rings, I can't compare them. However, this is a very good fantasy. Even the hobbit was much weaker than Warcraft.
Probably a lot will not be understandable to people who are not familiar with the lore of the game, but it does not hurt to enjoy the movie! I don't know lore, but the questions to the movie I have almost was not, and some dramatic scenes I was in shock. The film is very beautiful, orcs are very realistic. Well, what kind of graphics not lost the plot. It keeps the screen on, and after I want to review the film. Warcraft is a great movie. It's from fans for fans, and it feels.
Was it possible to shoot better? I don't know. Ideally you need a series. But what happened is good, the best fantasy of recent years.

This movie was so good but only if you're a fan of the games. It was either bad or decent for a regular audience and no, I'm not saying that this movie sucks, it just had so much potential to "BLOW THE F*** OUT OF EVERYBODY'S MIND!" This is one of the best video games movie by far but this movie had so much potential to be one of the greatest films of all time (like Lord of the Rings). I don't blame the director, Duncan Jones because he did his best to fit in everything he knew the movie could be but the studio panicked and cut 40+ minutes of useful & valuable scenes of the movie! That's what made some of the humans characters so **** because there's no character development and that's why you needed those scenes to stay. Like Duncan Jones stated: "Trying to make a movie like Warcraft, and trying to do it in a unique way... you get killed by a death of 1,000 cuts. Not just editing cuts. It's little changes that seem really innocuous. As a filmmaker the only way that I understand how to make a film is holistically. Every choice that I make, whether it is story or character or costume, all works together. When you make a little change it doesn't seem like a big deal. When you keep making those little changes, especially over three and a half years, suddenly you're basically spending all of your time trying to work out how to patch up what has been messed around with. I was able to maintain Durotan and Draka's relationship, keep it feeling like a real relationship between a husband and wife, and those two characters being orcs. That was something that I pitched right from the start, and fought hard for, and was able to keep that in there. That always felt like a real win. SEQUEL? If there were an opportunity for us to make another film in the Warcraft universe I really feel like we did the hard work in the first movie as far as setting the table. I would love to capitalize on three and a half years of hard work and be able to have some fun in that world now that I've done the hard work. [So] who knows? Maybe I'm just being a masochist. What drives the Director crazy about Warcraft? I'm equally proud and furious about Warcraft. I love it. I spent so much time on it. I put all my heart into trying to make it work. Parts of it, I think, work, but it also drives me crazy that I wasn't able to push through everything that I knew needed to happen in order to make the film I knew it could be. Expand

Mostly well-acted as well, although Ben Foster is actually really bad throughout and really chews the scenery. It does end in an open-ended sequel-prepared fashion which is a bit frustrating also and probably won't be fulfilled by the sequel it desires. Perfectly competent though and slightly compelling.

Получилось ли из «Варкрафта» качественное фэнтези?
Я большой фанат игр по «Варкрафту». Играл в них с детства. Игры умели затягивать сюжетом и красивой картинкой. Поэтому когда в 2006 году компания-создатель игр Blizzard Entertainment сообщила об объединении с киностудией Legendary Pictures для подготовки к съемкам и выходу фильма по «Варкрафту», я был на седьмом небе от счастья. Долгие 10 лет ожидания: смены режиссеров, сценариев, мрогочисленные заморозки проекта и вот, наконец, фильм вышел. Но хорош ли он для зрителя, как для фаната, так и для человека, не знакомого с играми? Для решения этого вопроса я пошёл на фильм вместе со своей женой, которая никогда в «Варкрафт» не играла. Поэтому я составил общую оценку фильма. Итак, начнём.
За основу для фильма взяли первую часть игры «Варкрафт», которая вышла аж в 1994 году. Особым сюжетом игра не блистала. Однако вышедшие позднее книги скрасили события этой игры, добавив интригу и колоритность. Сюжет у фильма, все же отличается, и от игры, и от книг. Множество переделанных сцен дали фильму возможность понимания его обычному зрителю. Однако, события в фильме показались немного скомканными. Режиссёр так много хотел рассказать зрителю, что 2 часа не хватило для полного и чувственного просмотра фильма. События слишком быстро сменяют друг друга. Только, вроде бы, начинаешь сопереживать одному герою — нас быстро переносят к другому, не дав рассказать про первого. И подобных действий в фильме множество. Не дожали драму, чтобы переживать за персонажей. Юмор в фильме есть, но, по большей части для людей, знающих игры. Неожиданностей в фильме не присутствовало, хотя и было множество намеков на это.
Игра каждого актера не вызвала отвратительной реакции. Но и раскрывшихся персонажей здесь по пальцам перечесть: Лотар (Трэвис Фиммел), Дуротан (Тоби Кеббел) да и Дрека (Анна Галвин), остальные играют нейтрально, не вызывая ярких эмоций. Графика, эффекты, декорации, костюмы, режиссура на очень крепком уровне. Орки и прочие расы и создания, построенные на графике, смотрятся очень гармонично. Мир передан с душой. Атмосфера игры присутствует. А отсылки к играм вызывают нескромную улыбку. Фильм, в целом, получился бодреньким, смелым, самостоятельным фэнтези с (естественно) явным намеком на продолжение.

Working through my Blu-Ray backlog, I finally reached Warcraft. This is a movie that is obviously based off of Blizzard's iconic Warcraft series in order to milk that IP for all of its financial worth.

Did it succeed? I would say Yes.
Working through my Blu-Ray backlog, I finally reached Warcraft. This is a movie that is obviously based off of Blizzard's iconic Warcraft series in order to milk that IP for all of its financial worth.

Did it succeed?

I would say Yes. Largely.

In fact I would recommend this film to anyone who wants a comfortable fantasy flick and I even finished the film with a smile on my face. I will state for balance that I have been a player of Blizzard's series since Warcraft 3 and played World of Warcraft until the end of Arthas' story in patch 3.3, so take that as you will.

The film is effectively the first video game compressed and changed in order fit into the 123 minutes run time and it actually works without leaving too much for the audience the wonder about. The major heroes and villains of the movie are both played well, although I will say that those on the Human side: Lothar, Khadgar and King Llane (played by Travis Fimmel, Ben Schnetzer and Dominic Copper respectively) did seem a bit wooden and at times even a little tired. But it did not have a jarring impact on the film. Even with the huge amounts of CGI the Orc actors portrayed themselves well and were thoroughly believable. Except maybe Paula Patton, playing Garona the half-orc, she did seem very robotic even in the emotional parts.

The CGI was fantastic and was great for the larger scale battles but it does look odd in close up - there is a scene early on with Durotan and wife where it really hits you with the Uncanny Valley. But overall the CGI is consistently strong, from the actors to the battle effects. I will say however that the entire movie felt too clean, too fake. I know that is odd to say however it is true. If one was so watch Lord of the Rings after this then they will see what I mean. There is violence in this movie but there is no grit.
There were also some wonderful cameos from the other races of Warcraft which I really hope that will appear in a sequel. The Story itself is effectively altered retelling, but although I was annoyed at this, for anyone trying to get into the Warcraft IP it does a decent job balance things it tells you and things it leaves you wondering about. If you want to tease people with a bigger world beyond this film then this is how you do it.

Overall I would say this is a successful video game movie adaptation, and considering the sheer amount of cockups by companies in the past to jump industries, Warcraft does exceedingly well - just like World of Warcraft did when it first launched. It has problems and really I would never to go see this movie in at launch - a DVD/Blu-Ray definitely though. But that is only due to the fact that cinemas are just so damn expensive and this isn't an AAA production that is worth the extortionate price.

I still do not know what Blizzard did not decide to make a Trilogy based off of Arthas Menethil's story - But I am hopeful that Blizzard will see that they have some decent stories that can be turned into decent films.

I think I was tired that day or sleepyTL;DR - Honestly I fell asleep the first time I saw this movie on the Big Screen in 2016, this rarely happens hence I never considered rewatching the movie dismissing it as 'so boring that I dozed off'. I think I was tired that day or sleepy because I was wrong, I may have also gone in with an expectation of an Action Spectacle.
Rewatching the movie at home paying attention to the plot and not expecting to see some amazing action sequences I really have a newfound love for this film, so much that it almost made we want to get back into the 'WOW' games that I quit after finishing Wrath of the Lich King more than 6 years ago.

The Good
The CGI was really good for about 95 percent of the movie, some shots look dated now in 2020 but most of it holds up pretty well. We live in an age where movies with heavy VFX start looking bad as soon as you see them at your home after a theater watch. Four plus years later this movie is still pretty watchable which shows passion from Art Direction and VFX teams. The Music was amazing for the film, every track and piece of background music added to the immersion and has very accurately replicated the feeling of the games.

The story is also pretty good, quite straightforward nothing too deep but executed well enough. The pacing was decent with Travis Fimmel really putting his all into the role, Dominic Cooper and Ruth Negga have good chemistry on Preacher but sadly they did not spend any time together in the film. Ben as Khadgar and Ben as Medivh turn in interesting performances, a little uneven at times but mostly works well.

The detailing in all the Horde and Alliance parts of the Visual Storytelling were extremely satisfying to experience in movie form. The Gryphons, Azeroth, the Murlock going 'mrglwglwlg', the Orc Watchtowers, the Dwarf Guns and much more made the Warcraft Nerd in me watch in awe at how good they were.

The Bad
Even though the CGI was amazing I felt all the actors playing the Orcs were lost under the cgi, unlike now where we can still see Mark Ruffalo under all the Hulk CGI. There were some big names, one being Clancy Brown who even after a rewatch I could not figure out who he was playing. I feel any big names on the orc side are wasted and should instead cast lesser known but good actors thereby saving budget on getting and wasting mainstream actors.
Paula Patton was alright considering the role but she felt a little uninteresting as I know she can act, it just felt she was not really into it.
The story although not bad, stays a little bland and goes as expected, maybe hiring a good screenwriter should be more of a focus over big names for the cast if they were to do a sequel as recent rumors have stated.

Warcraft 2016 is a good watch if you are not really into the games, from a Visual standpoint and a Story standpoint the movie delivers a good experience as an entry into the universe.
The the fans, which clearly from the high Metacritic user score confirms I was incorrectly judging the movie for a while now; tell me that it was a satisfying movie and hopefully the rumors of a sequel become reality soon.

I hope someday will release a second part, but being realistic won't happen

Filme legal, me diverti, excelentes CGI, pra mim cinema tem de ser para se divertir. Porem se olhar com olhos de fãs, o filme foi bem decepcionante.

Lol, 32 critic score? WTF? This is a really great movie for us fans of the universe. It deserves atleast a 60-70 score, but 30??? Ignorant media.

I don't understand why this movie failed? I absolutely loved the Warcraft movie! And there isn't much movies that I love, I tell ya. The story, the epic graphics, everything, kept me on the edge entire cinema session. Just gets to show you,I don't understand why this movie failed? I absolutely loved the Warcraft movie!

Only brainlets can't get past that they had to change some things to appeal to a wider audience. I still see people complain about this movie and it's a shame.

Warcraft was an entertaining fantasy movie. The visuals were good, acting could have been better, the action scenes were good but had more potential. Pacing was not good; the beginning is fast but after that film slows down.

Even after having run time of 2 hours, the movie feels a bit short. You could easily add 20 minutes without the audience feeling bored.

I do not agree with critic's review. It is worth watching in cinemas. You will most likely have a good time. It's no masterpiece, but it's an entertaining blockbuster.

Warcraft, in my opinion, destroyed that and managed to make a good movie. There has been a piece in the past that I liked, and it was Assassin's Creed, which got some hate, but I liked it and since then I've come to believe that movies based on games are slowly but surely starting to work and Warcraft just confirmed that in my opinion. Beautiful CGI. Cool plot. Cool fight scenes. What can I say. It just worked. Maybe I even liked the movie because I'm not a Warcraft fan and so I don't know any of the story or just don't know what it's about properly. A friend of mine who is totally into the world of Warcraft, she just didn't like the movie. So I don't know if this movie will only be for those who don't know much of the game. On the one hand, I remember just well enough that I'm a big fan of the Assassin's Creed series and I've played (except for the minor ones) all the episodes and I loved the movie. (Probably the only one). So purely for me, Warcraft is a good movie to recommend. Expand

Well. look, this movie isnt perfect. But 3 out of 10? Oh come on. They tried to make a movie translating one of the richest lores in gaming history into a 2 hours movie and a 50 hours long games.

They tried to make a movie translating one of the richest lores in gaming history into a 2 hours movie and a 50 hours long games. BUT. They did a good job. The story is good, its 90% spot on, they changed a few things because they HAD TO due to budget. Too bad we never got a second and a third movie. The director did miracles, probably a WoW player, he even got the flight paths right. We would have an Arthas movie 100% accurate. Give this man another gaming project he loves. He does an INCREDIBLE job. But if you will, give this man a chance for another Warcraft movie. Expand

de las mejores adaptaciones de juegos a peliculas, los criticos la mataron porque son todos unos gorditos que juegan wow, pero a los que venimos de warcraft nos cumplió un sueño que siempre tuvimos.

Not perfect but quite enjoyable, a movie that i waited for long time since the first trailer, as a fan of the warcraft games it made me wanted to play the first games again.
At the end of the movie, some cuts are quite visible and took you

From the beginning 'till the end, I just couldn't but adore the beautiful landscapes, incredible CGI and simply astonishing soundtrack which pulled all of it together.
I'm not saying that this is the best movie of all times, but it certainly deserves more recognition than it has. I sincerely hope that eventually, we will get a continuation - as low the chance of it actually is.
