I kind of want to see it as well! But the reviews on Rottentomatoes hurt my soul.

Don't read reviews just watch it and decide yourself. I very rarely read movie reviews, game reviews yes. I read reviews of movies that were supposed to be great and myself and the wife look at each other and go, WTF was that. The opposite is also true.

Cohen Brothers movies are a good example, I just don't get it, but I'm just some guy, no real arty type.

True...Some of my favorite movies got the worst reviews.

I watched it. I liked it. Lot's of newer games. About 1/3 of it is retro games. I give it a thumbs up, worth the rental fee I paid on Directv. Lots of cameos, history of video games, etc.

Just watched, it's like an introduction to the history of gaming for your parents, not something for the hardcore nerd. Made me want to put down MAME and get Last of Us though.

I watched it last night and agree it's not for the hardcore.

I found some the comments a bit odd, especially from Reggie and Cliff, unless they were visionary when they were kids. I can't see Reggie at 10 years old discussing the new NES the way he did; kids just think it's cool.

Anyway, a good 1 hour 41 minutes. Next up is King of Arcades.
