Left me flat

Rating: 5/10 (30 November 2018)

I can never enjoy a movie when I fly. The screen is too close to my eyes and I can never settle down enough to really pay attention to what I'm looking at. That said, I can watch the screen in the next row just fine. This past August I watched bits and pieces of "Ready Player One" flying back and forth from NYC to San Diego. It really grabbed me. I thought the action and CGI looked great. It still looks good on DVD but it little else going for it. Uninteresting characters and an uninteresting story are a bad mix. And I'm sorry, I find constant references to other (and usually better) movies a little tiresome. "RPO" is one '80s movie reference after another. Despite all of the action, it's gets kind of boring after a while.
