Today: films about games! Or films heavily influenced by games and gaming. And note: the games themselves don’t have to actually exist. That opens the remit up a bit, doesn’t it? But the films have to exist otherwise this would be a very strange article indeed. Happy Friday!
Real talk: this film is way better than it has any right to be. Or maybe not. You’ve got the Zero Effect director in charge, and a cast that is absolutely filled with charm. At the heart of it, though, is a brilliant little examination of games and the ways that they transform their players.
