It was 1989. I was 12 years old. My mother left my dad and filed for a divorce. I cried a lot. She ask me what I wanted for Christmas. I told her a the New Nintendo Gameboy. She told me she couldn’t afford it. She secretly worked two jobs so she could surprise me with a Gameboy. It was the first Christmas without my dad. But I can’t remember ever being so happy. I lost countless hours playing Tetris. I completely forgot about divorce and all the mess that comes with it. This movie made that moment even more special. Long Live Nintendo.
This film is amazing, i love it.
If not for anything else, you should watch this just to hear Toby Jones speak Hungarian. But this movie is... PERFECT!
The music is superb.
The video-game insertions are amazing.
The plot is thrilling.
The ending is sublime.
And it's based on true events as well.
Tetris fans, video-game fans and all human beings in general: this might be the best movie you'll see this year. DO NOT MISS IT!
I can't believe my grandma liked it even though the name of the film is a video game.
i never would've expected this movie to be SO GOOD ! i reccommend it to everyone ! its very engaging and keeps you entertained the whole run of the movie . the plot was very sweet and shows how amidst all of the greedy corporations fighting for their next cash cow, theres still people that truly care about creators of media !
Really great film.. we’ll worth watching !
Eggsy, I mean, Taron Egerton was remarkable to me. I went without expectations because Tetris (the game) is a giant milestone for the game industry, I didn’t even expect to like it so much. And I loved it a lot.
To the religious people of Tetris, the film is not a limitation or decrease of what was Tetris and its conquest. It’s just a perspective that was well told, of the parts they wanted to count and show with that vision.
Taron, as always, delivered a lot. He really plays in acting and does more than everyone else, right, but in general, I loved it. I was a little shocked by the KGB woman, but maybe it was naive, just like the character.
Well, now I’m going to play some Tetris.
excellent, wild and awesome history movie, congrats!!
I’ve loved the game since I was little but was not expecting to love this movie. It was really fast paced and kept my attention. It was really a wild ride. I definitely recommend it, even if you don’t think you’d enjoy it.
There's so many things that amazed me about this movie, I honestly don't know if it's because I absolutely adore Tetris. One thing I can say that it definitely captured the Tetris spirit - so if you love the game, you will love this as well. Bonus relatablity points if you're from any post soviet country
The constant thrill, the soviet environment and the whole political situation in Russia at that point - it was all on point. [spoiler] I absolutely lost my mind during the car chase scene with Russian version of Holding Out For A Hero - it was SO on point, the cars getting pixalated, and the car fitting just right in the crack.
