Reviews are surfacing, so far it's not looking good... pretty much all saying the same thing: It's shit.
I think Kotaku of all things gave a good description
"The fundamental flaw in Warcraft is the same flaw we find in most video game movies: it takes itself too seriously. These games are set in a world full of in-jokes and surreal humour, one that’s inhabited by a race of giant panda bears because the developers at Blizzard really liked one of their own April Fool’s jokes. Even when the Warcraftgames get dark, and they do get dark, they’ve always been adept at having fun with their players. The film does no such thing. If only this film had the charm of a Warcraftunit who’s been clicked too many times."
