Ready Player One: Begin!
By George Robbins
[usr 4.4]
As a blockbuster film, it is already expected that this film would be relatively well received. I rather enjoyed the movie as well, though I have to admit I haven’t read the book. It doesn’t at all matter though whether you read the book or not, because the film is an experience all on its own. It is by no means a perfect film, but it is entertaining nonetheless. The biggest issue I had with the film was the pacing and the sudden character changes as a result of the pacing. I understand that in order to not make the movie unbelievably long, the pacing needs to be adjusted accordingly. It is for this reason that I believe the movie is good for what it is and I don’t expect it to be anything more. It is simply a fun action movie to watch and myself being a gamer makes me like it just that little bit more.
