For a film that constantly insists its world is one of boundless creative potential and pure imagination, it's almost impressive how painfully uninspired A Minecraft Movie is. It may yearn for the mines, but you'll merely wish for death to end its misery. Sure, it makes references galore to the video game and the many in-jokes that have been made over the years since it released (the "yearn for the mines" bit being one of the funniest, yet it still lands awkwardly right out of the gate here).
