Warcraft (2016)
An epic fantasy adventure unfolds as warring factions clash, deciding the fate of their worlds.
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.
How intense is Warcraft?
Warcraft is mildly scary, with light gore and strong violence. Emotionally it carries some weight. The pace is brisk, and it is a full-attention watch and a party watch. Rated PG-13.
