The most fun I've had with a movie in 2018

Rating: 6/10 (2 August 2018)

The moment the first race for the key began, I was in awe. Cars flying everywhere, pure chaos, beautiful effects. Never have I had this much fun with a movie. Stellar acting across the board, especially from Mark Rylance. But I have a major gripe with this movie, and that's sadly about an important aspect of every movie. The plot. It's no issue for me if a story seems silly, I can get behind that, but this one just doesn't seem believeable at all. A bunch of "Gunters" (short for Egg Hunters) set out to find three keys in order to take control of the Oasis, this virtual world everyone is so addicted to. It is stated that several years have passed since the compitiation began, and a strange portal to a race opened, that upon completition, will grant players with the first key. But it seems that completition is impossible due to King Kong blocking the path to the end. And that's where the Gunters come in, and after a quick look at some archives, the Gunters find out that the only way to complete the race...is to drive backwards... Yes, this movie wants you to believe that it has taken people several years to try out driving backwards. It's dumb things like these that just make you go, "what?" And that's why it's so important that you watch this movie on a big screen. Because otherwise, you'll notice how dumb this whole thing is, instead of being sucked in by the visuals.
