its like Hollywood gave the book to a drunk screenwriter and told him to read half and replace the pivotal timeless key challenges with currently popular games and remove any journey of friendship and add a nonsense Insta romance.

If I had not read the book it would have been better. There were so many changes that I didn't love it. But it could stand on its own had I not had a different storyline in mind.

Trying not to wave the book- was- better- than- the- movie flag... it was entertaining, and I would've really like some of the really deep cuts the book had but understand this was made to be accessible to a wide audience. That being said, the loss ous the characters intelligence, how dire the world is, and how hard the quest really was... that it took serious amounts of time to find the keys... that should've been kept. Still worth the price of admission.

Great movie has a retro feel. I felt like I was in 1980's slash 2000's

Was a big fan of the book and while the movie strays from the original source material, it still did a good job at capturing the same feel. Definitely a fun popcorn flick

Absolutely NOTHING like the book. Spielberg gutted this movie and filled it with cliche love stories that were empty, drawn out, and oh did I mention NOTHING LIKE THE BOOK. The end result? Neat CGI while I nearly fell asleep.

I'm 58 was never a big gamer ( in the 80's we had Pac-Man , Space Invaders) so when the movie referenced the old games I was aware,but clueless of origin.Loved the SHINNING scene. Think too much time in virtual world. Younger audiences ( 16 -22)should enjoy it most. Spielberg didn't need all that composed music it was a distraction.

Not as 80s as I would have expected. Also it didn't have the heart I expected from a Spielberg film.

Epic as Usual from Steven Spielberg. I swear on everything sane in this world I hate Chucky but when they threw him into the movie it made me chuckle so hard because I'm horrified but laughing at what he's doing in the movie. The movie wasn't all predictable but at the end, I imagine in the real world a Human being would've pulled the trigger to gain the power. Who knows? Maybe this movie might wake some people up

it's not the book. don't expect it to be. the characters didn't feel that compelling and relationships appeared out of nowhere

If you loved the book, don't see the movie. If you have not read or do not remember much of the book then by all means it was a good movie.

Disappointing; for such an interesting topic they weren’t willing to take any leap of faiths. Stuck with fluff and cheesy 80’s references.

I saw the film in IMAX, and a week later I’m still waiting for the safe return of my optic nerves, but it was the meagre emotional charge that shocked me most. Toward the end, as in many Spielberg movies, there are tears, but, for once, they feel unearned.

Once the initial thrill wears off, it’s a hollow kind of fun, which is almost certainly the point.

Spielberg has seemingly done the impossible: balancing sugar-rush nostalgia with an involving story to create a pure, uncynical, cinematic ride that recaptures the magic of his early films.
