Review of Ready Player One (2018) by Jess S — 09 Apr 2018
A video game related action adventure movie that was very enjoyable. There's a title screen near the beginning BUT I think it was lazily done. Most of the movie was CG and it looks like you are in an actual video game battling it out in the Oasis.
The girl and Wade's friends who are H and the Samurai guy and Sho were likable characters and did good helping Parzival throughout the movie. The villain is just like any other villain in a video game where he wants to take the game company for himself and tries to do it but it would have been better if they settled the fight in the Oasis more instead of the real world.
The game creator Halliday was kind of a goof and didn't like his personality. This movie has a lot of references to other movies like the Shinning, Back to the Future, King Kong, and Jurassic Park.
Keep an eye out for them. The ending was spectacular in the Oasis with an all out battle scene but after they are in the real world, it kind of slacked off. Overall a great movie if you like video games.
