Movies that feel likeWarcraft (2016)
If you loved Warcraft, the closest films we have are Mortal Kombat II (2026), The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug (2013) and Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness (2022). All three share Warcraft's kinetic and epic feel, which is what we rank on before quality.
Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings (2021).
Can't choose? Answer three questions and get one movie for tonight.
If Warcraft hit the spot, these will too

Champions battling to stop a tyrant from wiping out an entire realm
The difference: Tournament combat between fighters, not a clash of civilizations

Dwarves pressing deeper into a hostile, dragon-guarded fantasy world
The difference: A single treasure quest, not a war threatening two whole peoples

One thread runs through both: magic
The difference: Critics rated this one higher still

The same mix in both: momentum, then scale

Both lean on dream logic more than on action

Kinetic adventure in both cases

A rogue royal and ancient magic pulling you into a full fantasy world
The difference: A magic-dagger caper, no armies and no war for a homeland

An adventurer risking everything in a dangerous, unexplored world
The difference: A solitary search for one missing father, not a war for a homeland

A fantastical world rendered with the same big-budget, kinetic sweep
The difference: A jungle rescue story, no magic and no warring realms

A massive historical-fantasy war staged with the same kinetic scale
The difference: Monsters storming a wall, not two peoples fighting over survival

Soldiers thrown into a hostile fantasy world and forced to fight to survive
The difference: Monster-hunting survival, not a war fought over a dying homeland

Warriors and sorcery clashing in a pulpy, larger-than-life ancient world
The difference: A revenge quest for one man, not a clash between two civilizations
