Ready Player One (2018)
Directed by Steven
Spielberg this film based on the novel of the same name stars Tye
Sheridan, Olivia Cooke, Ben Mendelsohn and Lena Waithe. In the future
young people try to find an Easter egg in a VR world to save it from
being taken over by an evil CEO.
On the superficial
level there is plenty to enjoy here but oddly for a Spielberg project
the film ends up lacking a true emotional core. I found the plot
itself, especially towards the end, to be juvinille and predictable.
There are too many unearned character moments hidden behind dazzling
special effects and pop culture references.
3/5
