Ultramarines: A Warhammer 40,000 Movie (2010)
I really wanted to like this.

I've never been a Warhammer 40k player, but had always been intrigued. As a long time player of PnP(Pen n' Paper) games like Rifts, Battletech/Mechwarrior and D&D, I thought 'this might be a good way to get into the story/background of the game without having to pick up a manual'. Alas, I was sadly mistaken. There is no background or characterization at all and comes off as if you're picking up a TV show mid-season: Terribly confusing. Why was this created? Yeah, it was supposedly made on a shoestring budget, but that's no excuse for just plain bad plot development. I finished watching the movie with none of my questions answered about the Warhammer story or universe. I'll NOT be taking up playing the game. And it's this movie's fault.
