Wordiezett So much average
Lawbolisted Powerful
StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
jaked-76127 It had Adam Sandler in it. And it was better than Shawshank Redemption. I really liked when PAC Man ate Jamie Beltman!
bombersflyup Pixels was what I expected it to be, so I wasn't disappointed. It was some light fun.I think there was some opportunity that was wasted in the casting. Not so much Sandler, but James, Monaghan could of been better. Gad and Dinklage's characters the standouts. Ashley Benson be my pixel baby. They should have done "Frogger" or something for the finale, I don't see the attraction of "Donkey Kong." I liked the song and montage of the scenes in video game form during the credits, a nice touch.
brian2000 Havent you guys realized that Eddie the cheater is Billy Mitchell!
Michael Ledo This is an Adam Sandler movie so it automatically has lovers and haters with parents wondering if their kids can watch it. The film opens in 1982 with kids playing in an arcade championship with the tape being sent into space by NASA for aliens. Years later when Kevin James is POTUS and Sandler is on the NERD Brigade installing TV systems, the world is attacked by aliens using video games tactics. Only the old time players have the ability to defeat them, sort of like "Ghost Busters" but not nearly as funny.For those who like movies based on video games, this one goes over the top. The script is formula with minor twists but not real surprises. The language was iffy as it uses the word "b***h" which made the kids giggle. There was 1 F-bomb. There is some talk about sex such as making a Martha Stewart, Serena Williams sandwich. Definite PG-13 stuff.Adam Sandler managed to score minor roles for his wife and kids. There are some fun scenes with era music and people, even though some came after 1982 creating anachronisms.Good mindless fun, aimed at teens who were around in 1982 and wormholed into the present.
