lowkey this felt like a chaotic 90s fever dream the cgi is fighting for its life but thats kinda the charm its giving early internet anxiety before the internet was even a thing the whole arcade gone wrong concept is actually cool but the execution is wild in a why did they think this was enough kind of way still i cant lie it made me weirdly nostalgic like its bad but in a comfort trash cinema way three stars for the vibes and accidental comedy

this movie was unbearably bland. the concept of controversial technology getting a mind of its own and seeking “life” for itself is turned into a low budget melodramatic sci-fi epic. but it’s not epic. for the first 70 mins, you’re watching a bunch of high schoolers trying to solve the mystery of an arcade game gone bad. but it’s mostly them arguing whether or not a video game is alive. you’re literally longing to see the video game world in action. and when you do get to the world of the video game, it’s the most boring video game you’ve ever played. there’s nothing imaginative about this.

Hey, Seth Green's in this movie.

Better than Tron or Brainscan.

"I am dead. Watch!" is an all-time line read, actually.
