A big screen romp filled with awesome CGI and a ton of pop culture references, but Ready Player One may not be what fans of Ernest Cline's bestselling novel are hoping for.
PROS
Superb CGI and action sequences; Great attention to detail on pop culture references
CONS
An easy to predict storyline; The Stacks does not get enough screen time
VERDICT
Where the film cannot be faulted though is the stunning CGI work that Spielberg's team has created for Ready Player One. The different virtual worlds are immensely rich and detailed, the expressions and emotions of avatars in the OASIS come through expertly on screen and the action sequences are quite epic.
