Starring: John C. Reilly, Sarah Silverman,
Synopsis: A video game villain wants to be a hero and sets out to fulfil his dream, but his quest brings havoc to the whole arcade where he lives.
Visually enchanting and extremely memorable
Excellent film by itself, but there's a lot of depth added with the sheer number of nods to common and not-so-common retro games of several eras. If you grew up in the 80s or 90s and had even a single console, watch everything very closely as there's bound to be a reference you recognise somewhere. They got this one spot on!
