Review of Ready Player One (2018) by Drake22 — 28 Mar 2018
Not bad I guess.
It's a pretty movie. Some genuinely funny moments. It's great to see cyberpunk, video games, and VR represented in a mainstream movie. Product tie-ins / references are fun. Acting wasn't bad. Writing wasn't noticeably bad.Not bad I guess.

Some genuinely funny moments.
It's great to see cyberpunk, video games, and VR represented in a mainstream movie.
Product tie-ins / references are fun.
Acting wasn't bad.
Writing wasn't noticeably bad.
Really strains the limits for suspension of disbelief, both in terms of the technology and the world built in the movie.
Plot is predictable, unoriginal, and shallow.
No real reason to care about any of the characters.
Feels rushed, especially the love story.
Scope is way too big.
Not worth paying movie theater prices.
Probably worth renting at home or watching on Netflix.
Excited to see someone else make a (hopefully good) adaptation of Snow Crash if this movie sells well.
