Plus he wrote one of my favorite movies from the 80's The Goonies! So yeah, I like him. Here I think he was just making a commercial film to have a hit on his repertoire again since Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief wasn't a money maker (actually it lost money).

This film was fun, I'll give it that, but a movie shouldnt run on nostalgia alone, which is what happens here. I just wished that the rockin' 70-80's soundtrack and the old video games were accompanied by a better story, something a bit more gripping. I mean, there's the thing with the kids mom being divorced and what have you, but they didn't even take advantage of that plot line to somehow give the movie heart, which is what this film is missing. They needed to give the characters something more to fight for, something that really mattered. As it is, this is just a special effects showcase, which I love, but I can't give it a high rating because while the old video game characters were awesome, the movie didn't engage me in any other way, this is what I call a "lost opportunity". <br /><br />But yeah, I'm a huge fan of old video games, I play Pac-Man, Super Pac-Man, Mappy, Galaga and Galaxian at home all the time on my big screen tv, and I loved the scenes with Pac-Man, but that's as far as it went. At the very least it made me want to get my hands on Donkey Kong and Centipede.

And if you're fan of oldies video games you might like it. Good review. Poor adam i read somewhere that "Adam Sandler must be stop" but he's trying to be clean in almost all his movie. One of lately (well its a bit old) was "You don't mess with the Zohan" ppl didn't like it but i cracked myself everytime i watch it. Is stupid but is funny in his way.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16734953052163054144noreply@blogger.com
