Uno: The Movie

Throughout the years there have been plenty of video game movies that have been terrible and some have been alright, but none have truly been great, until now.

Uno:The Movie is a story about Uno for sure, but it also has heart, joy, sadness, and a mixture of other emotions that makes it a well balanced and well paced film. The characters are great and the stakes are truly there once the film hit the final act.

This movie also shows the power of friendship and the effect an event like this can have. People's lives change in an instant and no one can really guess where this goes, and no one can guess the ending. Also, make sure to stay though the credits, you won't be disappointed with what you see.

The cast does a great job. You really feel like they are friends with each other and they all know each other so well. It gets even better when you learn that two people played Ryan in this film and you can't even tell the difference. They both sound so alike that there is not a chance to tell them apart.

Move over Mortal Kombat, this is the great video game movie of all time and one of the best ever regardless of genre.

10/10

THE MOVIE ITSELF This movie is amazing. The character development was like nothing I have ever seen before. Their acting was so good it looked like they were really held there by a spirit, and you could hear the stress in their voices. Although it is a very long movie, there is little off time. The plot twist at the end was made by a genius, and I believe the director did an amazing job with the special affects. SPECIAL AFFECTS This has some of the best special affects in recent movies, it looks like cards float and the spirit really does appear as a blue mass in front of one of them. I have even heard the cards themselves weren't real, which is insane if it's true. I would suggest this movie to anyone who isn't afraid of oceans or bad decks.

I had my doubt when I started this movie. A nearly three hour long comedy? There would be no way that it could keep the comedy for that long. Now, I know that the creators have pulled of some great short films before, like Fuel and The Game of Life -- but a full-length movie? I honestly didn't think they had it in them. But they did.

Their previous short film, Let's Play Uno, was a amazing. This feature length follow-up was nothing less than a masterpiece.

In my opinion, Pattillo has the best performance. His acting is superb -- ranging from his loud outbursts of obscene words and jokes, to his silent denial of reality near the end. He's the best actor Rooster Teeth has had on camera. They missed a huge potential by not giving him more screen time.

The cinematography is amazing. The red color really symbolizes the hell the players are truly lost in. My only wish would have been that the Director would have added stationary cameras for the players faces. That would have really given us an opportunity to see the true depth of their despair.

The soundtrack is also incredible. The smooth jazz playing in some of the sequences really fits the story well. The song playing during the credits was also insanely beautiful.

I haven't seen a movie where I've been so immersed in the plot in a long time. I could compare it to movies like Shutter Island -- you're just sucked into the story, coming up with crazy ideas and conspiracies for how it's going to end. It's extremely unpredictable. The entire story can change in the play of a single card. The Notorious Seven or the Crazy Zero are telltale signs that something is going to happen.

I can't recommend this movie enough. It's definitely the Let's Play Movie of the decade.

I can honestly say that when I saw that this film was 2 hours long - I was a bit wary. I watched a preview of the video on Twitter of Jeremy and Ryan's humorous reverse debacle, and figured that I'd watch the first 10 or so minutes and then keep it on in the background while I finished up some work. But 5 minutes in I was already hooked. Rules that I'd never even hear of made it a thrilling nail-biter throughout the whole thing. The humour is made all the better by the fact that none of the players knew what was coming. Very immersive in that way. 10/10, would highly recommend for any fellow fan or someone just looking to throw away a couple of hours watching complete nonsense unfold by watching 4 grown men play a game made for children.

Play on, Achievement Hunters.

Despite the name of the movie being called Uno, ill happily keep drawing to have this rated a 10

You're first thoughts upon seeing the run time might be 'uno... for 3 hours... how could they make this a movie?' but i assure you, unlike most other video game movie adaptations this one is true to the source material in it's fullest. All the cards are well represented even with a few new character traits added to '0' and '7' which weren't shown in the short film that this was based off.

You've really got your hands full with this one

With that I call UNO
