While it's certainly modern, technically impressive, and conceptually ambitious, "Ready Player One" is an exhausting love-letter to nostalgia and pop-culture that's overstretched to a punishingly excessive length.

I loved Ready Player One! Steven Spielberg's dazzling and entertaining trip to the past and the future is one of the best popcorn films I've seen in years. It's a thrilling, visually breathtaking roller coaster ride with colorful characters, a wonderful and engaging story and a truthful message at the center of it all. It's a world built and fleshed out beautifully by Spielberg, and by the end you'll wish you were able to be part of the fun. This is, in my opinion, Spielberg's best film in over a decade.

This is no ordinary sci-fi movie. It has the humor that all successful action flicks out there, and a clear message all melodramas had. I enjoyed this film not because of the graphics and the whole idea of a virtual reality. I enjoyed it because of all the pop culture I can relate to were introduced not in a cheap or mocking way. The irony is, it is a movie marketed and appeared to be appealing to the younger generation who may not have a single idea of all, or at least most, of the references.

Clumsy writing, an excess of pointless exposition, and a distractingly overpacked visual field made me yearn for the simpler, more elegant pleasures of the original Tron.

Visually stunning. See it in 3D, if you can. Otherwise, delightfully disposable entertainment.
