Pixels

A movie that as Deadpool and Wolverine is all about fun and have a real sense... even if in some ways has its owns sense, the movie is pure fans for gamer lovers so I don't get why everybody accepted the marvel Deadpool and Wolverine movie and not this one. Probably times are changed but if you are gonna watched after 2024 and you love games as people love marvel, you are gonna have fun watching this movie which in my opinion has been not understood since probably many people are not old games lovers or I don't know why. So, this movie is promoted cause it's about game lovers and fun, as Deadpool and Wolverine is about the two heroes fighting, Deadpool's jokes, and Marvel fanbase. However, contrary to the marvel movie, Pixels was not well seen by the critics and most imports by people. However, now times are changed and you can see many people' s reviews talking about it. Talking about the fact this movie has been underrated and in order to understand it you have to admit that " why a movie cannot be just fan and for game lovers ?!." To conclude if you wanna have fun with some chilly and fun actors, you miss old movies and old games, and you have something light to watch; this movie will give you a perfect movie night alone or with whoever you want to :)

I guess the the way to describe this movie is Ghostbusters lit up in neon. Please see it just for the cgi, it's awesome. If you have the dvd look for the short on how they created one of the cute characters. The comedy is snappy, almost witty, and yet nothing new, but it works. You'll smile rather than laugh out loud. The story is absurd, which is exactly what we pay Hollywood for, and with this one they've outdone themselves. There's a classic chase. There's a great cameo appearance. There's a cleverly worded love affair. There's a great homage to nerds of the 1980s and overall, I thought, a really whacky satire of big budget invasion movies. It's just such fun.

Aliens in the guise of video game characters prepare to take over the world and a group of 80s arcade gamers re-team to stop the threat.

From the director of Home Alone, Chris Columbus' Pixels plays as a mix of Wreck it Ralph, The Lego Movie and channels the likes of Independence Day and is reminiscent of Ghostbusters to name a few. This highly under-appreciated scifi comedy is a feature-length adaptation of Patrick Jean's video- game themed short. There's something for everyone but if you're a 30 something or more you'll find it hard not to like this retro game blast of a movie complete with arcade slot machine sounds.

Opening in 1982 those with an appreciation of the late 70s and early 80s surely can't help but love the throwback gags. It then fast forwards to the present day with Adam Sandler, Kevin James and Peter Dinklage's characters all grown up. It's fast paced fun with aliens disguised as Hervé Villechaize, Madonna and President Reagan. The contemporary cheap quips about Gandalf and Harry Potter also hit the mark. As the grown up nerd gamers assist the President (James) to save the world it's good natured with a flood of one liners, fitting effects and a soundtrack emulating a bygone era. It's packed with references from StarWars to Tron, writers Tim Herlihy and Timothy Dowling induce nostalgia successfully.

The supporting cast include the likes of Brian Cox, Sean Bean and Dan Ackroyd to name a few. There's also some celebrity cameos including Serena Williams and Martha Stewart. Characters from classic arcade games such as Paperboy, Space Invaders, Pac-Man and Donkey Kong among many others appear.

Despite scattered anachronisms (who's checking) Columbus' Pixels is sorely underrated, it has great visuals and perfect comedy timing. It also has subtext about today's games. It's very entertaining, even if your 're not a retro gamer or and 8-bit lover, it still comes recommended.

A fun movie, with bright actors. Entertaining and authentic. Worth surely the view

I enjoyed it, Pixels is much better than people say. It has some really funny parts, and if you grew up in the 80's and played some old games you will like this I am betting.

Of course there are some silly parts, but that's how all Adam Sandler movies are. It reminded me a bit of Billy Madison or Happy Gilmore. It was fun to watch.

Ignore the reviews from critics, the SJW's these days will find anything to complain about and they did with this movie too. They want everything, whether it be a movie, video game, or comic book to cater to them. Anything they find offensive immediately they claim to be insulting and they will overlook anything good about the movie just so they can talk negatively about it.

Never listen to an SJW when it comes to reviews, they are awful critics.

Watch a movie, and judge it for yourself.
