10 Redeeming Elements In Otherwise Awful Movies

10. The Orc Half Of Warcraft (2016)

Duncan Jones' Warcraft somehow feels both overwrought AND half baked at the same time, and ironically it has very little war, and even less craft. Once you finish reading this segment, it'll fade back into obscurity along with every single other video game inspired film.

All that said, it is a positive step forward for the genre because there is a good movie buried in this convoluted mess, though it is only ever readily apparent when there is not a single human actor on screen. See, the Orc half of the plot is actually a pretty entertaining and unique (if extremely goofy) fantasy film, and it's a real shame it has to share screen time with the suffocatingly bland human characters.

The story of Durotan is a classic tragedy with stakes and real emotions behind it that somehow gets smothered by a paint by numbers fantasy plot courtesy of the humans. Unfortunately, it is impossible to untangle the two halves of this film, otherwise I'd recommend fans get to work on creating a version of the film with only Orc scenes in.

Not only would it be a more compelling film with fewer odd fantasy names to remember, it would be an hour shorter.
