The shots they got are dope. I am a girl streamer and I wish it talked more about girl's roles in eSports, but it does a nice job featuring three girls that I can relate to.Stunning visuals, excellent acting. This movie is just absolutely amazing, the best I've seen all year! Please watch it, you will not be disappointed.
There is a lot of good content in this video, but there are so many issues. The video starts off with a voiceover that "this isn't going to be a normal documentary" and unfortunately, that is the case. Supposedly, the video follows two rival gamers and how gaming affects their social lives, but that is far from the case. There are bits and pieces about these two gamers, but most of the video is crammed full of other info - cosplay, health impacts, first games played, parental limits, etc. The video is also disorganized. It may cover esports, then cut to a kid talking about why he loves gaming, then to a pro competitor talking about why s/he started gaming, then to Twitch, and back to another person and why s/he games. If you have 86 minutes and are willing to be patient for the info that is worth your time, then go for it. But be aware, this video is about a whole lot more than professional gaming. Not a bad thing, but not what is advertised.
I just saw this on snapchat. It made me feel like a kid again when watching their ad. At first, I was like what is this? I watched it on Hulu and sure it got slow at some parts, but overall I feel it was really cool seeing every day people with day jobs and trying to live their dreams well unleash their inner child. BOOM....
We live in a society that thinks this represents us games. Where the f was the weed and friendzone issues gamers deal with. Why Veronica
I thought this was a an overall good documentary that gave you an insight and some knowledge about gamers, esports among other things. I would recommend checking this out if you have desire to do streaming or join esports.
