Description

Ready Player One is a 2018 science fiction action film directed by Steven Spielberg, based on the novel of the same name by Ernest Cline. The story is set in a dystopian future where people escape their grim reality by entering a virtual reality world called the OASIS. When the creator of the OASIS dies, he leaves behind a hidden Easter egg that will give the finder his entire fortune and control of the OASIS. The film follows a group of gamers who race against a powerful corporation to find the Easter egg and save the OASIS from falling into the wrong hands.

The film received positive reviews for its visually stunning world-building and action sequences, as well as its faithful adaptation of the novel. However, some critics felt that the characters and plot lacked depth, with a heavy reliance on nostalgia and pop culture references. Despite this, Ready Player One was a commercial success, grossing over $580 million worldwide.

The film's themes of escapism, virtual reality, and the dangers of corporate control are still relevant today, as technology continues to advance and blur the lines between reality and fantasy. Ready Player One serves as a cautionary tale of the power of technology and the importance of retaining our humanity in a digital age.

Percy Jackson & The Olympians: The Lightning Thief

Percy Jackson & The Olympians: The Lightning Thief

Sci-Fi & Fantasy

Percy Jackson came to replace the "aging" Harry Potter. There are five books already written about the boy's adventures, so you will not be missing Potter for the long time. Rick Reordan, the author of Percy Jackson & The Olympians: The Lightning Thief before becoming a writer, taught at the American school the ancient Greek literature and was a leader in summer camp, where he conceived the idea about the Half Blood. So kids, watching a movie will feel themselves like at the lesson of history in junior high, where it is very lucidly explained that children born from gods and humans, are called demigods, and that Athena has long feud with Poseidon. Of course, the situation that the Greek gods live in America, but still continue to enter into relations with ordinary citizens, looks more than a comic. But in the movie there is no explanation for this divine movement. If you forgive this fact, you will definitely consider Percy Jackson & The Olympians: The Lightning Thief as a good adventure movie for the teenagers.

Battle: Los Angeles

Battle: Los Angeles

Sci-Fi & Fantasy

It has been scary enough to hear of UFO sightings around the globe. Places like China, Germany, France, and even Buenos Aires have all reported evidence that some form of unidentified objects have been seen flying about. In Battle: Los Angeles we find some of these sightings have been documented by trustworthy and qualified people while others are merely random visions offered by "questionable" sources. However now they are beginning to be reported in the U.S. and particularly in the Los Angeles area. This becomes terrifying when the Earth is attacked by forces that are unknown and often unseen. In 2011 the fictional fantasy plays against reality and when LA becomes mankind's last chance to take a stand against alien forces we see a Marine sergeant (played by Aaron Eckhart) leading a platoon and taking on an enemy more powerful and threatening than they have ever been forced to encounter. As large cities fall to the enemy around the world how can a small band of U.S. Marines prevail? Battle: Los Angeles the movie gives UFO sightings an entirely new slant.

Iron Man 2

Sci-Fi & Fantasy

Iron Man is bound to multiple returns, while Robert Downey Jr. plays a major role, and Jon Favreau is the director. And as long as until the protagonist is not exhausted stocks of radioactive charisma, and the chief director allows the actresses enthusiastically clobber themselves in the frame, we will be back for another serving. It is not excluded that many may seem, the "Iron Man 2" had not went long away from the first part. That is very nice and noisily shuffled his feet in one place. So let it be. After all, the movie can afford it, and there is no need in more compelling reasons besides the classic selfishness of the Stark.
