Ready Player One
People play online games so they can escape the callousness of this world and just cyberbully.
The troll in this sci-fi film, however, is actually the head of a tech conglomerate.
When the fan-boy creator of OASIS dies, he bequeaths jurisdiction of said online virtual reality world to the player that can locate three keys - or Easter eggs - hidden inside of his referential universe.
Accepting the challenge is an improvised gamer (Tye Sheridan) trying to escape his real world existence; a famed Easter egg hunter (Olivia Cooke); and a CEO (Ben Mendelsohn) looking to enslave OSAIS avatars.
Crammed with references to movies, video games and other pop-culture touchstones, this half live-action, half computer-animated production from director Steven Spielberg relies on nostalgia and eye-candy to keep viewers distracted from its toothless villain and predictable plot.
Moreover, who wants to rule a world that has so many character copyright and licensing agreements? Yellow Light
