Review of Ready Player One (2018) by Frances W — 23 Apr 2018
As a "golden age of television" brat, I really wanted to see the characters on-screen--specifically Wade and his (human) team--given as many episodes and character arcs as was their due. Lots of potential unmet in that category, instead given over to quick plot points that illustrated how much we'd like to see these characters do more.
Still, the CGI was insanely exciting, and even heartfelt, which was a hair surprising. Best scene by far was a Stephen King throwback, whose gorgeous recreation took this review from 3 stars to 4. All in all, solidly entertaining--but, Mr.
Spielberg, take note, let's get this scope on our TV screens ASAP. We've got more stories to tell.
