The nostalgia of a post-80s who had no games in his childhood

Very very American, very very ordinary, very very heroic, very very streamlined movie.

but! I almost cried when Toru Iwatani, the creator of the "Pac-Man" game, faced what his son "Pac-Man" said.
You read that right, I almost watched crying in such a film that "the laugh point is still good, and the novelty is good"!

I don't know if it is because the Japanese English is too bad or something, anyway, I suddenly felt that the moment was so warm. But in fact, what happened in the next second also immediately forced my tears back...

As a person who has only played Tetris and has never had a game since childhood, it’s pretty good to be able to get these points. .

    We have to do it, and if we don't, the world will end.

    What a theme and idea. . . As a result, the director played and smashed it. . . The whole film is long-winded, and the only thing worth giving is probably nostalgia. .
