Max Reload: O Jogo Começou

Wasted screenplay. Has moments that are decent but the sub par acting just did it in for me. Kevin Smith was funny. The brat kid Max is what brings everything down the most. Poor actor choice for his role.

This was a fun nostalgia fueled flick that failed to really knock it out of the park and sort've landed in mediocre territory thanks to it's delivery and clunky storytelling. There's just too much up and down here, moments I loved and others I rolled my eyes at. Not really much to say about it but it's not the worst thing ever, worth a background watch if you're in the mood for some retro gamer vibes but it's not exactly brilliant.

This is a watered down Todd and the book of pure evil with Atari instead of heavy metal. The story line exists (more than I can say for some B movies), the FX are good enough to support the story, and they got a real cast although they are mostly supporting characters. The story gets lost for about 20 minutes around the 1 hour mark and the main character is obnoxious with his everybody sucks but me attitude. I have definitely seen worse.

From looking at the poster, I was expecting to see some monster fighting action going on in this. There really wasn't... It felt kinda bland and only really gave me a chuckle or two. Since it is an action comedy, the corny, low budget effects are excusable. I guess I just thought it was going to be a little more heavy handed with the action element than it was. I kinda thought it would turn out to be something sorta similar to "Ready Player One", but it wasn't even remotely. Its not the end of the world if you decide to give this one a pass. Kevin Smith was kinda funny and he was part of the reason I gave it a watch, but he didn't have an incredibly big role in it.

I can get past the the fact that it's a massive b movie. But when they have massive gaming nerds use macbooks thats where i turned it off..
