-
A not particularly satisfying ending that involves silly CG effects. On the other hand, the acting is uniformly compelling, the fight sequences are energetic, and, as character drama, the material is especially enthralling.
-
The best case for Warriors is its cinematic time travels and its peek into the natural wildness of a long-closed countryside.
-
60Thoroughly old-fashioned entertainment.
