Could have been something really great.......
17 December 2010
I really wanted this movie to be great. I had been waiting months for this to be released and although my expectations weren't that high i still felt let down by this title. As i watched this i really wanted to get in to it and had read many of the warhammer books in the past so felt I could overlook any failing in the movie as i really wanted it to be good. Unfortunately the animation is so poor that it constantly pulls you back out of the story. Characters look wooden and reminded me of older animated TV series e.g. starship troopers. The special effects, such as explosions and gunfire look terrible. There is only one half decent fight scene but even there the characters move as if they have arthritis and clunk about the place with as much grace as the miniature figurines upon which this movie gets its source material. Again. I wanted this to be good and wish i could give it a higher score but honestly. The cut scenes in many of the games are of much higher quality.

The good: excellent voice acting/casting. good music. Attention to detail of 40k lore. decent story if a little slow.

The bad: Animation is very poor.
