Is it the best , Oscar winner awesome movie? No. but it's pretty funny, with a fun light hearted premise .

I might not be from either but I have played some of these gameboy and DS like the original Pakeman and Donkey Kong. This was very a thrilling for both me and my sister especially because it is the first film we watched in IMax at the cinema and it was very good especially with all of the pixelations and special effects used in this film.Ignore the haters this is a very good film.

This won't be a lenghty review. I just need to say that i loved this movie. My weakness for old classic arcade games might ofcourse have influence my rating, but i still think this would be a very entertaining movie for the whole family. I've learned through the years not to take all movies so seriously but instead let the movie tell me what is real.Again, i loved this movie and now i must see it one more time!

Critics panned the movie for precisely the reasons it's fun. It highlights the fun of video games and arcades in the 80s. The plot isn't deep, but it's creative. The special effects were first rate. It *IS* a movie made using 2015 technology, it's just set in the "blocky pixel" days of the 80s. The marriage of those two elements is excellent. And who can pass on a chance to see Peter Dinklage in a mullet! Ignore the critics. Watch this movie for the fun that it is.
