Very good for an 80s action movie
This is one of those movies you love because of how bad it is. Well, that and the sheer amount of fun you have watching a thick-accented commando going up against horrifically ugly aliens.

I remember nothing about this movie other than enjoying the heck out of it and simultaneously having the desire to never watch it again.


Honestly, it's pure cheesy magic, isn't it?

Movie Favorite

"It’s everything! This film also captures an exciting time in American classical ballet. It’s like it’s frozen in time, this magical period in the late ’70s and early ’80s when ballet dancers were rock stars. I loved it even more later in life because, once I moved to New York, I ended up living with Isabel Brown, whose life the story it’s loosely based on. Her daughter, Leslie, stars in the movie opposite Mikhail Baryshnikov."

Watched today friend at my work suggested I watched this movie cause I told I’d never this movie which shocked him anyway what do I think of the movie now I’ve seen it it’s rather good cult classic 80s movie that makes stars
Of both leads there are scenes of drug use and swearing which doesn’t take away the appeal of the movie would I watch again yes

A bit too much referencing (1 more)
Would have liked to know what the winner did with the money after the game was over
I wasn’t alive in the 80s and am not a gamer, but I still got sucked into this book. I have seen a lot of 80s movies and heard of a lot of the consoles and games mentioned, so I was able to catch/understand most of the references. A lot of world building went into this, both inside and outside the OASIS simulation, and I think it was done well. I wish it had gone into what happened after the game was over. Did the winner try to help fix this dystopian society or just buy a big mansion, live like a king and watch the rest of the world burn? I’m glad the main character was from Oklahoma, my home state, and from a city only about 2 to 3 hrs from where I live. Oklahoma isn’t usually a popular place for movies or books to take place so it was nice to see something that partly took place in my state. It was also nice that this character wasn’t portrayed as a country bumpkin being from Oklahoma. Although, his living conditions and home life are pretty standard for characters from my state. I’m excited to see how this story translates from book to movie because, if done right, I think it could be good.

Slimer - there's always one pointless character to ruin the fun
Classic 80s childhood movie
I can still watch this over and over again without flinching. It definitely hails as one of the tops cult movies for the 1980's, it still has charm, comedy, and a decent enough plot to be played on TVs across the globe on a weekly basis. Inspired to watch it now.
