Overview

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. From opposing sides, two heroes are set on a collision course that will decide the fate of their family, their people, and their home.

A lot of sentimental hogwash about fathers and sons heading off to war.

J. R. Jones, Chicago Reader
Rotten

Warcraft isn't decent. It isn't awful, either, though that would honestly be preferable.

Alison Willmore, BuzzFeed News
Rotten

Crowded and scattershot.

Anthony Lane, New Yorker
Rotten

Large scale battles and magical pyrotechnics are nice supplements but the absence of well-formed characters and a meaningful narrative render such pretty things moot.

James Berardinelli, ReelViews
Rotten

Warcraft is a language you don't speak, a code you can't crack, a party you weren't invited to.

Will Leitch, The New Republic
