A massive pander.

Rating: 1/10 (2 April 2018)

This movie contains all the elements of the last 20 years I personally haven't been a fan of. People's obsession with technological gimmicks, corporate CEO worship, overindulgent CGI, superhero fascination.. and retro nostalgia thrown in for good measure.
The look of the film's only consistency is that it has no consistency- each scene is as gaudy and ugly as the last.
I managed to last about three quarters of the film, mainly because I was hoping that the dead CEO would tell the guy to destroy the entire game (I since read he did, but was declined), but I just didn't want to watch it after a certain point. I did however break my desire to leave during the first 20 minutes, and then very ten minutes after that, so I did pretty good I think.
I feel for the producers who have to make back 440 million dollars, but I'm sure this movie's extreme pandering to a society that is loosing to it's mind to corporations and technology will probably pay off even with my little viewpoint.
