Uno: The Movie

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.

I started the film skeptical. Who are these people to think that they can build a film upon a family card game? Was I wrong...

You begin as our heroes start fresh into the world of the game. Taking in its atmosphere and overall happy to be apart of the aura it puts off. However, things begin to fall in spectacular, confusing, awe-inspiring, and meaningful ways.

This film turned out to be not just a film created from a vision, but one that shapes the vision as it is filmed. It held no boundaries and it gave no cares to what human nature may wish for in life. This film wasn't a comedy, horror, suspense, drama, nor romance. This film was a close look into the sociology behind human nature. The slow degradation of man, the ever increasing distrust of others, the wish to only find the end.

Overall, this is not a film to be taken lightly. Expect nothing and accept everything for this is a commentary on life. I won't say that I cried, but I definitely cried. I give it a perfect 5/7.

When I heard about this I thought it will be terrible. little did I know it will literally made me laugh so hard. A true masterpiece perfect for Christmas nights and New Years. Also perfect for making people think "what the firetruck did I just watch, because who the heck plays UNO THAT long?" Anyway, I still have to write around 5 more lines because I'm just here to top rate this awesome movie, okay? Seriously, it's really hilarious, and you're probably not gonna read this anyway, and there's so much I can do to extend this text! Make sure you get cozy before watching this, because your ass is gonna hurt a lot after this, sans padding. Oh and by the way, the cake is a lie.

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

I arrived home from work, exhausted from a long day, and noticed a video in my YouTube subscription box titled "Uno: The Movie". I scoffed at the thumbnail, Hollywood has officially run out of ideas! With a cynical smirk on my face, I decided to click on the video, thinking I was to see the death of cinema occur right before my eyes.

From the moment the video started to the moment it ended, I found myself captivated by the story, characters, and cinematography. Coworkers trapped in a room together until they finish a 500-point round of the classic card game "Uno", but with some sadistic rules added. As the hours wore on, I could feel the character's desperation to finish the game- almost as if they were actually playing a three-hour game of Uno. The camera angles used to show us each player's hand makes the viewer feel as if they were actually playing the game themselves.

With a stunning cast, crew, and soundtrack, I predict a complete sweep at next year's Oscars for this breathtaking film. "Uno: The Movie" did not kill cinema, it brought it back to life.
