At the hands of the gifted director Duncan Jones (Moon and Source Code), Warcraft is still a complete and utter misfire. Filled with bloated CGI, sluggish characters and a flimsy story this film is strictly for geeks only. Outsiders you’ve been warned.Director Duncan Jones will live to seize another day. For now, though his newest film is a complete misfire and utter waste of your time. Warcraft is nothing more than a scattershot adventure of Orcs vs. Man. This is yet another example of why video games fail to deliver satisfaction to the big screen. The story follows an Orc horde invading the realm of Azeroth. Now, a few human heroes and dissenting Orcs must attempt to stop the true evil behind this war. A.KA. bloated CGI sequences with actors thrown into the middle of the chaos. Jones tries his best to craft the battlefield, but fails to bring justice to the flimsy story. This lumbering adaptation was obviously made for fans of the game only. For me, I found it very hard to care about paper-thin characters and a convoluted plot that felt more like a first chapter in an endless, tedious saga of movies full of noise. In the end, Warcraft is a code you can’t crack which makes it frustrating for viewers alike. Apparently, this is only the beginning for more films to follow … God help us all. Warcraft is rated PG-13 (Parents Strongly Cautioned). For extended sequences of intense fantasy violence.
