The clips didn't look melodramatic serious to me. When those two orcs were sitting in the grassfield talking about their dying world it didn't have the weight of Attack on Titan or even during the forest battle . There was this casulness to all the soberity. Idk anything about WOW but the clips looked ok. The whole film doesn't know how to have fun with itself? Uh I'll see evidence thus far says othrrwise

let me put it this way: the story take seriously as DCCU but with dialogue of Marvel, that mean it have storyline that take seriously but with all hammy speechies of more laid back film, both cannot coexist and come across as narmy
Of course the metacritic score was low, they had only 4 critics review and no user review at all. By comparison, Green Room
has 42 reviews.
That all you got?
So we may be looking at an example of Critical Dissonance, unless we get more reviewers that are more familiar with World of Warcraft and are smart enough to know that this isn't a WOW movie.
That is the face of a man who just ate a kitten. Raw.
I just returned from the movie. I thought it was mostly good, but I am a biased reviewer as I am a long-time Warcraft fan. I get the feeling that people who aren't familiar with Warcraft and fantasy in general might have a harder time with the movie than those who are.
There are some things I have issues with and some Narmy dialogue, but apart from that I liked it.
Do a barrel roll!
Don't all Blizzard games have occasionally goofy dialog? ;)

Yeah I guess the Narmy dialogue is to be expected. It IS Warcraft.
Also Llane's armor needs to be added to World of Warcraft.
kind of, Warcraft 3 have some very good dialogue, specially when Arthas is concern, Wow just went overboard with this.
The movie has no gnomes. 0/10, do it over with more gnomes.
Still not embarrassing enough to stan billionaires or tech companies.
Just a harmless giant from a foreign land.
Dayum, Gul'dan did some Senior Citizen Pilates. He earned his Badass Grandpa creds even if he cheated in the end.

What a weird beast that film is. I might have to write a thing on it.

Yes, but so were dwarves and high elves, and I've seen them in the promotional videos, so it's fair to say they're not following the games 100% when it comes to different races' debuts.
Any Goblins?

No goblins, no gnomes.
0/10

Does it have Blizzard's epic soundtrack?
It has Ramin Djawadi doing his best fantasy soundtrack, and it's really good. The music kinda sells a scene when the acting doesn't.

I play the games, I read the books, and I'm about to watch it. What should I expect? LOL
I'm reading this because it's interesting. I think. Whiskey, Tango, Foxtrot, over.
Awesome design, choreography and audio. Paper thin story that relies too much on background details.
Basically, it's a Blizzard product.

Just returned after impulsively going to watch the movie for the second time. I still enjoyed it, and I'm not entirely sure why it's been reviewed so poorly. I can understand the critique of elements in the movie (Characterization, pacing, etc.), but not hating watching it so much that it'd be rated so horribly. Did they expect something along the lines of The Lord of the Rings?

Coming out of the movie yesterday, and I have these questions:
1. While the Azeroth/Stormwind troops eventually mass-produced the flintlock Lothar got from the Dwarves, how come the Orcs didn't have spear throwers as their own ranger troops as a nod to the game?
2. Would the Orcs' landing spot be the Stranglethorn Vale?
3. Would the guy Go'el/Thrall hissed at in the ending where he is picked up be Tammis Foxtron, given that, IIRC, he said "Sire" as soon as he picked up the infantile orc?
1. Can't say I have much of an answer to that. I was more disappointed to not see as many knights, if any at all. Some of the soldiers were mounted at least.
2. Their landing spot is in the Black Morass, the area south of the Swamp of Sorrows. They even call it the Morass in the movie.
3. Probably. Or just a random servant.
And about being to serious....that is not the problem, is that combined with camping acting that make everything come as narmy instead.
