Warcraft (2016)
Directed by Duncan
Jones this film based on the video game franchise of the same name
stars Travis Fimmel, Paula Patton, Ben Foster and Dominic Cooper.
Orcs escape their dying world lead by an evil shaman and come into
conflict with humans on the new world.
I have no idea if this
film does a good job of translated the video game lore to the big
screen but the script lacks any character or personality. There is
also something really worrying about the idea of corrupted immigrants
whose skin gets darker when they turn evil wanting to take over the
world, especially in light of real world events. It does not help
that the casting for this film does not have a single actor of
gravitas to carry the film. Paula Patton also really sticks out as
the only non CGI orc in what seems to be an odd decision from the
film makers.
1/5
