Review

I came to this films with no preconceptions of it as a movie and I have to say I am glad. I guess I was expecting another Michael Cera movie about some dopey kid in love. And thats what it is ... but done in a unusually great way. For anyone under 25 brought up on gaming (I am 30 and not) this will be just brilliant. The style of the movie with its Ȯnd of level baddies" gameplay setup and visuals are a welcome and refreshing twist on what could have been a humdrum movie. The music rocked the comedy was fast slick and laugh out loud ... Iɽ definitely recommend this to my friends looking for something that little bit special.
