Did director Steven Spielberg do the pop culture-loaded bestseller justice?
Did director Steven Spielberg do the pop culture-loaded bestseller justice?
As much as i want this to be a great movie because im a gamer, it feels like its going to be a whole lot of fan service. But who nows i might be wrong
There’s nothing wrong with fan service, unless it’s forced providing nothing to the movie other than “Oh, I know what that is!!!”
harrison jananto that’s the whole point of it. The book is full of 80s references the author grew up in that time period so it makes sense. The have obviously added new addition like tracer in order to update it.
7.5/10
J. Michael Miller at least it’s not Pixels.
J. Michael Miller can i ask what your first name is?
*7.5 – Player 2 not ready.* – IGN

Gold ???
Wow different from what angry joe said
HeavySandvichGuy1 delusional bastard!??
i think some of her question can be answered if she just reads the book, and tbh, something with a story like this are better left to the imagination, cause if told it could through the plot off, or convoluted it too much, but, 7.5 is still worth seeing. i told my self if reviews gave it anything less than a c i wasn’t going to go see. tbh i hope its better then she says it is when i go see
Yes!!! The book is very well written and basically answers all the questions that the movie will leave out (just like any movie based off a book).
Yeah. I mean is there a movie that doesn’t leave out stuff from the books? Nah
A movie should stand on its own. Dont tie it on with the book.
I just read the book and cant wait to see the movie
Douglas Walker the movie should stand on its own I bet you’re one of those Destiny kids who said just read the grimoire on the website for the story.
Do .50 speed enjoy a drunk girl reviewing a movie lol
Lmaooooooo wtf
Brilliant.
Thx
omg you are so right its hilarious
As a Tokusatsu fan, I should be upset that the Iron Giant replaced Supaidaman’s Leopardon, but I understand since Iron Giant is more well known in America.
Marcosatsu (maybe he means a different mech but your probably right)
Don’t worry, I managed to catch Kamen Rider in one shot.
Tim Walsh There is a Gundum in the movie its in the trailers
Quinton Blackburn Where did you hear that Ruby is in it
Should’ve called it VR Chat the Movie
FullBlown StolenMemer VR chat was made after the book.
Overused joke
FullBlown StolenMemer Too bad the book was made in 2011
The problem with the real world is they are tech obsessed and they don’t really explain it. The real world we live in right now is a tech obsessed without really any explanation. I’m currently watching this while on the toilet. Something we couldn’t do 10+ years ago. Imagine what it’d be like in 30+ years from now. I bet pretty similar!
LordSpectre yes, literally all these questions are answered in the book
A movie should successfully stand on its own without people having to read the book. If it doesn’t, it’s a bad movie.
Alanah Pearce : I understand what you are saying, but a movie like this requires a read first. This movie would easily be over 3hrs long, just trying to explain every little thing for everyone. People now days need to use their imagination and just enjoy a movie. We as a society don’t need to nitpick every little thing about everything.
Bruh Just READ the Damn Book
George Lin No. I don’t wanna.
George Lin You forgot to say please…
Why would I read that shitastic piece of name-dropping pedestrian garbage?
the book suxxxxx. read “Snow Crash” instead!!!
7.5 “Only one player, needs to be multiplayer…” – IGN
Yeah, not enough multiplayer
7.5 – Too much CGI
the movie is about a fake video game world…of course there will be a lot of CGI
Week9nd like marvel right… shut up If you don’t like don’t go watch it
5/10 Can’t play offline
GamerHeadX hehe, you actually CAN so uh, go read the book, it is good
wait 7.5 because the real world is boring? that’s the whole point the allure of the Oasis as its not dark and depressing. its almost like the the reviewer missed the entire point of the film/book
Alanah Pearce true but go context matters a whole lot and some of what was done makes sense
Well it’s still better than when Assassin’s Creed’s movie transitioned into the real world. Those scenes that didn’t take place in the simulation were boring to watch.
Yeah I agree with Alanah on all her points ps: Hi
moleogod 7.5 because many of the reviewer’s questions about the real world were left unanswered.
7.5 seems a little low from what she was saying or might be just me?
Tom Cabler Yeah IGN are pretty terrible with they’re scores.
Tom Cabler bo its pretty high given the characters are pretty weak, but the virtual parts make up for it. 7.5 is pretty high
Seems about right to me… Fun “hero’s adventure” action flick with not very deep characters and a lot of unexplained stuff and a few bad acting moments. A higher score would only be possible if you’re just hyping it as a fan of the book or something. It’s not the next Star Wars or anything… just a popcorn flick.
Seems too high to me
I need to see this movie!
Marulindda go read the book
BUT! Will it be available in VR headset in Full 3D. LOL. Spielberg. Where is your innovation. Go beyond CGI animation.
Who is not watching this
MINNEEEEEEE DIAAAAAMONDSSSS
7.5 is just typical IGN.
for the kind of stories and involvement of the communitiy and some characters i should say vrchat might be even better than this movie, really there are some moments that get you laugh so hard and other that makes you cry so bad, because of the feels, that you just cant imagine, just start by subscribing to nagzz21 youtube account and you will see the future its now
I said high 8s or 9. The entire review she nothing but positive stuff besides the backstory and the cheesey stuff
Not really, she privides several problems with the movie from a weak villain to extremaly shallow character development. Sounded like a 7.5 to me.
Too bad the book is from 2011
Yeah, I honestly found little-no spoilers I honestly don’t wouldn’t expect. The 7.5? Yeah, I’ll decide cor.myself because I feel like this got treated like another typical IGN video game review.
Btw IGN….. I MISS GA.ETRAILERS (style) reviews! Revamps that stuff with a decent department to upload new 1s, maybe. Was so nicely broken down and presented in it’s time…. Story/plot, presentation, design, gameplay, virdict. (which I consider an overall replay value and review score virdict)
Endangered Mexican do you know that he can say anything he wants
Zombiesize go ahead let’s see what happens after ok ?
