So so disappointed... After seeing the marketing for this film it was very apparent to me that 'free guy' isn't meant to be taken seriously at all and it's just a simple switch off comedy. After around half hour into the film however I started to question all these positive reviews I've read. I didn't find any of this film remotely funny besides a few lines here and there and the story itself was cringe and hard to watch at times. The film seems to heavily rely on cameos, references and that 'usual Ryan Reynolds' character which has been milked to death. The acting also comes across as very amateurish considering some actors in this film are great actors in other films. I get 'free guy' is meant to be a comedy but I don't think that's an excuse for actors to perform so poorly. The action sequences also come across as quite meh, which was a let down as I was expecting a film based in a video game world to have unique and crazy type action scenes but instead it was just dull and so so cringeworthy.

Overall I find 'free guy' quite a boring and tedious film, I can see what the creators were trying to do and I do think this film had potential however it was just poorly executed. I really don't get why this film is receiving the praise it has. Personally I can't think I'd watch this film ever again but hey ho that's just my opinion watch it for yourself bro!
