Worst book adaptation i have ever seen

Rating: 1/10 (14 February 2019)

I couldnt believe what I saw and stopped the movie half way through. I loved the book and was really excited for the movie, but Spielberg destroyed everything original and smart about the book and dumbed it down for a 21st century American audience. The story of a bestselling book was rewritten in a way that transformers 3 had a better storyline. The characters were soulless and had no background to them. The challenges had no challenge in them. In the first challenges, which is a car race, the a answer is driving backwards. A 6 year old would have tried that in no time. The story goes on like that for the rest of the movie. The all too realistic dystopian was a unrealistic joke. The movie is exactly what the book is warning about. It's the mentality of just wanting to be entertained with easy, dumb trash instead of getting you to think where society and the world might be heading to of people stop caring. Please start using your brains again, read a good book like the real ready player one and don't watch this atrocity. They added a villain and gave him a mayor role, who is mentioned once in the book and has the classic easy Hollywood dumb jokes role. He is ja ja bings all over again. I am done with Spielberg from now on and should have been from the Indiana Jones crystal skull movie. Just sad how his career ends. Bad movie for a dumb audience with bad characters and worse storyline. What a disappointment.
