I really was expecting very little from this movie, but I was surprised. Good action and quite a decent story. Not all fresh, but well put together. I think the biggest pity is the lack of talent of Fimmel. He learnt how to perform for Vikings and he lays another flat copy of the same character. Positive points to the very good OST by Djawadi.

Even if you have never played "Warcraft" or "World of Warcraft" before, I think you will like this movie. It has a great story, good acting & is visually stunning. The special effects are not over the top, but are very good & believable. Do yourself a favor & don't think of this a another "video game movie", see it & you will love it & want another to be made. I hope this turns this into a great franchise, there are too many good stories in the "Warcraft" universe waiting to be told on the big screen. Some non WoW fans might have a hard time following the fast paced story, but watch it again if you missed it & you will understand it more. I think there could have been a bit more character development & the addition of a narration track might help non Warcraft fans understand a little better, I hope they will do a little better on the sequel.
