Plot

The peaceful realm of Azeroth stands on the brink of war as its civilization faces a fearsome race of invaders: orc warriors fleeing their dying home to colonize another. As a portal opens to connect the two worlds, one army faces destruction and the other faces extinction.

Sinekatalog’s take

A big, noisy fantasy epic that tries to cram an entire game universe into one film. The orcs are rendered with unusual depth, but the human side feels thin and the lore arrives in heavy gulps. Best for fans of the games and sword-and-sorcery spectacle.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
