Review of Free Guy

Free Guy (2021)
6/10
Acceptable! Starts powerfully but fails to stay on the rail
11 November 2021
It may be labeled as comedy film which is true, but it still delivers serious messages about real living problems in human societies. How many of us really are players of our lives? We want to be, but it is really hard, like the world is designed in the way that we can't. Like we are useless characters in a video game. The movie also indicates that an intelligent self-aware creature cannot and has not been made to live like that. But the greed of some for money has changed the suitable environment.

Those are all the brilliant and successful parts of the story which has been visualized and produced greatly. However, when it comes to the concept of change and escaping from a repetitive life, the movie cannot be considered as a simulated version of real life. There are big philosophical holes there in the plot. The creators' rule and the players and the game characters interactions are not related to the real solutions in real life for humanity to scape the current corrupt system of living.

So, the movie is in overall acceptable conceptually but it is not the best. Visuals and CGI work is excellent. The scenario is good but there are several scenes with cheap clichés. Very good and directing is acceptable. The movie is entertaining for sure and worth a shot.
