    I'm sorry, but I can't take this seriously:
    Problem is, that metacritic is one of the biggest movie critics

    I must say... I am now VERY hyped to see this movie. I was at the 2007 Blizzcon when they announced the movie and I glad to see that is finally here.

    The 60 isn't too bad. The others seem like they have some agenda against Warcraft, CGI or videogame movies.

    It is their only arguement, their are gunna be negative reviews regardless. But when the possitive reviews roll in we will not have anything to worry about.

    So good at making the most outlandish elements of his first two films seem completely credible, Jones can’t find a way to get this cartoony spectacle to soar. His heartfelt approach to the material only underlines the silliness.
    It seems like they love Duncan .

    Problem is.... 1) I don't listen to most professional critics because if it isn't a piece of art, it is CRAP to them. 2) User Reviews is a cesspool of trolls. So I ignore metacritc.

    This guy had literally the gun ready to shoot in his pocket. Well, "critics" gonna be "critics". We know how it works.

    Any idiot can write a review for that. I read some of it and some of the arguments are retarded. Comparing the movie with the subscription numbers of WoW as a sign of quality? Really? They don't even know what they are talking about. Products eventually going in decline is 100% guaranteed, it's business 101. All products go through a products life cycle. They don't even understand that so why should I believe them on other points? It's just uninformed rambling.

    I'm betting he already had half of that written before watching the movie.

    That is, if he's even watched it.

    The others are a bit more reasonable, but still not very fair. And the 60 sums up to "not everybody is going to like it", which could be said about anything.

    He also said : "especially when the warlike Orc characters, who boast some of the least expressive character design since the aliens in “John Carter,” stand next to the film’s human beings." What ? They're more expressive than the humans...

    This guy's review absolutely destroys the movie... (Hollywood movie critic)

    He says Mario Bros movie is better. Not sure what to make of that.

    I hope this isn't right... "And the generically percussive action score composed by Ramin Djawadi (“Game of Thrones”) doesn’t help much either."

    Anyway to hell with critics, I'll decide if I like it or not after I see it, not before.

    I read here that Gul'Dan felt unfinished (graphically) in the movie. I didn't have that impression.
    However, there is a change between the Movie and the Comic Con Preview.
    Gul'Dan does not scream when he unleashes the magic to open the portal. This magic is green and not white anymore.

    I think we've heard what we needed to hear.

    Critics wont appreciate movies like this. Ever. The only reason LotR didn't get equally slammed is the fact that it was written by a respectable author a while ago.

    Anyways, all we can hope for now is that general fantasy fans will like it. And that seems to be the case so far. As for critics - I can't say I'm surprised. I never quite understood that species anyways.

    I'm not expecting this movie to be great(I honestly don't even really expect it to be good), but this reviewer seems like a total cunt. He went into this looking to hate it.

    It's TheWrap. What exactly did you expect? Hell, one of his first lines is
    Critics throw the term “soulless corporate filmmaking” around with abandon, but movies like “Warcraft really manage to redefine the term.
    Yeah, because we all know that no soul went into this movie, and it was all for corporate money-milking...
