I saw this movie and I loved it! Granted, it's not the best in the series (hands down to 1 and 2, I'm not sure which is better)and the story focuses mainly around Juni (my least favorite character). The plot for this movie is the toymaker has a new game called Game Over (hence the title), and the main puropes is for him to take over children's minds. He kidnaps Carmen, and it's basically up to Juni to save her. Arnold and his friends so could have been left out, or, portrayed by people that can act. The story starts out strong, the action is always there, and other than the fact that the movie is focused on Juni and him alone, that's probably the only glich that this movie has. Don't let the 3-d thing get to you, it's not that hard. However, if one is going to see it, they had better come with an open mind about movie making and special effects.
This movie is one that would have mortified Tobias Wolff, the real Tobias. The movie is supposed to be based on his life and what he went through with his stepfather. The direcetor, if he tried, had either not read the book or had not paid attention to the details. First off, when your doing a biography, make sure the character's names are correct. Caroline Wolff is incorrect, her name is Virgina, it states it in the book. Second, make sure the character's personality's check out correctly. He did ok on some of it, but when it came to Norma, they messed up big time. Her charcater, according to the book was up-beat, a kind of person that would be fun to be around. According to the movie, she is quiet and reserved,and physical descreption was incorrect. I could go on and on, but, I'll stop here. This movie is a lousy piece of crap that should have never been invented. It was a waste of talent of Robert De Niro, Ellen Barkin, Carla Gugino, and Eliza Dushku. Avoid this movie at all costs. As for Leo, he's always been a piece of crap actor, and this one (tobias) describes hime perfetcly.
The movie is focused on the whole town of Clyde, Ohio, yet it's basically centered around Dinky. Dinky is a misfit, both at home (she's adopted) and school. Although most kids would not enjoy this and would want to keep their heads down, Dinky has her head up and is not afraid to admit that she's different. The town is going bonkers over the arrival of Roxy Charmichael, a person who went from a somebody in Clyde, to a somebody all across the world. You also get to see the life of Roxy's former love interest before she left Ohio, a man named Denton. Denton and Dinky form an interesting bond, she's obsessed with Roxy, he know literally everything about her. She becomes convinced that Roxy is her mom, due to what Denton tells her one day. All in all this movie is an original classic that let's the viewrs look into the life of nearly the whole town. Watch for Carla Gugino's cameo appearence at the very begining of the movie as young Roxy. The movie is basically saying, everybody wants to be somebody else, whether it's a famous person, or the kid next door, everybody wants to be somebody. This is a fine movie, so if you have nothing else to watch on t.v. and this is on, give it a shot.
