Score: 30/100, ★.
Of the cinema films I've seen this year, the only ones I've received one star are "Warcraft" and "Macao 3" from the Spring Festival. In all fairness, "Warcraft" is still much better than "Macau 3" - unfortunately, the latter is a 10/100 or even lower-grade film, and it is enough to be shameful to be better than it.
In a word: Except for a specific group of people who will climax into confusion when they see the visual elements of the game being restored, and a specific group of people who will climax into confusion when they see any special effects scenes, the appearance of this kind of film is a big surprise to all normal audiences. nightmare.
This is the third time this year that a major production has made such a ridiculous mistake - the first two were "Bat Wars" and "Apocalypse". The difference is that this time, Warcraft's blunder was a complete disaster. The problem with it is poor editing and transitions, the panorama of the scene and the lack of detail, but more importantly, the rough characterization—or rather, the characterization that doesn’t care at all.
Although "Bat Wars" and "Apocalypse" are also presented with complicated appearances, they have paid more or less effort in the portrayal of specific characters. The success of this portrayal is another matter, at least because of this, there are characters in these two films that the audience can empathize with.
It's a pity that in "Warcraft", there is not even one such character.
Let's not mention other characters here. The screenwriter invites you to talk about Garona's life.
This girl is a half-orc who first served as a slave to Gul'dan, was released by Durotan and then fell into the hands of humans. Because she knew two languages, she once acted as a translator, almost brought about the union of Stormwind City and Durotan's tribe, and even cooperated with humans. The army fought side by side, and finally killed Ryan at the request of King Ryan, and was accepted by the tribe. In the middle, she teased Khadgar, talked to the queen and Medivh,
developed some kind of relationship with Lothar , and finally attacked Gul'dan's arrogance...
From the perspective of birth background and development, Garona should be the most complicated character in this work. She, who has multiple identities in one, can be used to reflect the internal problems and disadvantages of the orc tribe, to express the differences in human attitudes towards aliens, to describe the difficulty of survival in the gap between aliens, and to write a small character. Growth history... In short, Garona can be said to be the character with the most potential in this game.
The results of it? What the audience sees is only -
her life experience has never been discovered , the speed of integration into human beings is astounding, she is indirectly responsible for the death of Lothar's son, but she is forgiven in a flash, and she is indirectly responsible for the human beings falling into an ambush but No one has questioned, and the confrontation with Medivh and Khadgar highlights a useless... The scene where
Garona is finally forced to kill Ryan should have been an emotionally inciting climax, but the above said And all the plots that were not said made this scene a joke.
Of course, the most hilarious part is her faded make-up. A real person's makeup is far less real than a group of CG animations. I don't know if it is the progress of special effects technology, or the sadness of makeup and actors.
Garona's characters are so scrawled, so in this movie with many characters and scattered scenes, other characters with more or less flat settings can stand out. And know.
Is there any value in watching a film in which a character has not been created well, or even a character has not been carefully created?
As a mainstream commercial, no.
