Video Games: The Movie, a documentary aiming at entertainment and educating the audiences about how video games are made, marketed, and consumed by looking back at the history and culture of playing game through the view of game developers, publishers, and consumers. The film is not only just about the gaming industry, but also something that contains more ambition; the question of gamers, the game-manufacturer.
Video Games: The Movie is breezy and entertaining, but it's also obvious and simplistic. This is Video Games 101, when the people most likely to be interested in seeing it will want to learn something much more.
Unfocused and repetitive, this feature-length commercial by Jeremy Snead uses a muddled timeline and bargain basement graphics to produce a horn-tooting, "Aren't games awesome?" tone.
A by-the-books documentary that gives the history of video games bracketed with the voices of spirited members of the vast community of gamers, Video Games: The Movie is aimed squarely at its target audience.
The modern stuff is undeniably fawning. But given the eye-popping visuals, you understand the enthusiasm. Especially if you left your heart, and thousands of dollars in quarters, in an arcade.
