Anyone else find this movie was kinda...simple? Like a made for tv Disney movie from the 2000s. I mean all they did was place modern American race dynamics with fantasy creatures, (the ugliest most hated creatures resembling the treatment of blacks and the graceful, intelligent creatures resemble whites 
). I get why people like Will Smith but his acting skills aren’t all that great. It’s really evident in the scenes where they have to fill dead air with ad lib like when they call in Rodriguez to help them. He kills movies for me.
I get the low rating, but I get why people like it too. It’s fun and action packed, like a buddy cop movie usually is. And anytime we get a black protagonist is great

nah its those fakkit critics. Audience score is like a 90% on RT. People like itI thought the movie was good. Definitely didn’t deserve the 28% RT rating, but fukk ‘RT.
Man watched this last night. Surprisingly good and lots of really well done action scenes and stunts. They were blowing all kinds of shyt up, but it wasn't Michael Bay like stupidity.
Only a handful of things I didn't like:
* They didn't set up the world very well. Sometimes you can just throw people in and it's OK, but this made the first 1/4 of the movie feel very weird.
* Didn't like the makeup for the orcs. Kind of lame. considering all the thinks they could have done and other orcs we've seen in cinema. I guess they didn't want to look like anything else.

This movie could be a game changer too. A lot of critics are industry shills. They might not like the idea of an indie movie industry.
I think the implication was magic use was obsolete and the government is pushing the idea that no one uses it anymore
At the end when the orc starts singing like a canary and the elf FBI guy just looks at Will Smith for the "official" report, he just completely denies the existence of a wand. They obviously don't want panic over the "Dark One" returning.

just your usual nerdy brotha
He denied existence of the wand publically and privately also because he doesn’t trust the feds. If the feds were heroes he would of told them and they would of worked together to secure the wand and stop the dark lord return in the sequel set up but that didn’t happen because the feds were not heroes.
NZA
LOL
script is absolutely terrible but the visuals were good and the acting of the orc was very good. it deserves all the bad reviews it is getting but it was watchable
just finished it....not a good flick for someone of Will Smith's character......should have been a SyFy channel movie....very hum drum....

Action scenes are dope but the storyline and dialog is all over the place
