First of all I haven't read the book so I don't compare the movie to it. Now, this is very clearly made by people who 1. Clearly don't play any games whatsoever and 2. Do not understand internet culture. Mediocre at best CGI, actually terrible dialogue and character decisions, you are just endlessly bombarded with "references" and memes that the data they gathered when making it told them were popular without really understanding any of them. And finally a very confused overall message that I am not sure even they even knew what it was supposed to be. If you have no connection to games and internet culture maybe you could enjoy it somewhat, or at least pass some time but if you do... you will find it hard to.
