He's Gonna Take You Back To The Past!
6 August 2014
I had the privilege of seeing The Angry Video Game Nerd Movie at the Colonial Theatre premier in Phoenixville, PA (yes, the theater from The Blob). As a long-time admirer of James Rolfe's work as the AVGN, I had high hopes—I was not disappointed at all. This movie exceeded my expectations in every regard. This movie is wonderfully casted, well- written, and had a ton of laughs! Some of the jokes were very inside and only TRUE fans of The Nerd's work would appreciate…which was awesome! But, even first-time viewers can expect to enjoy the movie as it just strives to pack as much fun as possible into each moment. I literally can't say a bad word about this movie. Even the movie's "flaws" are intentional and, in fact, garner some of the biggest laughs. So far as video game movies go (The Wizard, The Lawnmower Man, Tron, etc.), this one is an instant classic and deserves to be seen by all the joystick jockeys out there!
