Ready Player One レディ・プレイヤー1


Even though the changes from the book are obvious, they don't spoil the film. Who knew Steven Spielberg(スティーヴン・スピルバーグ)had another crowd-pleasing actioner left in him while his focus has been on more realistic period dramas and character pieces for a while? This film seamlessly combines reality and animation into one big, exciting adventure. The comedy in the film is charming and fits in well with the film and the visuals are awesome.
