The Good Guys battle the Bad Guys within a video game for control of the game and its real world fortunes. Very Ambliny. Shallow and superficial. Any hope for real drama lost in the ultra-hi-tech CGI rendering, (the real star of the show), and the fast paced tweeny patter. The moral of the story being, according to the main character, gamers need to spend more time in the real world. At least two whole days per week. Because reality is the only place to get a decent meal. And, of course, a little down home lovin'.

Video game freaks will love this movie. Others? Maybe not so much. Worth the price of admission to see the special effects. Although that can get a little old about halfway through a two and a half hour epic. It has everything moviegoers have come to expect from the Spielberg camp. Except drama. And a soul.

5 stars for effort.
