Ryan Reynolds stars in one of the funniest movies of this year.
It feels good to see a well-made movie after such a long time

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Easily one of the best movies I've seen in a long time. Beneath the cliché of comedy that surface movie watchers only see is this thought - the birth of thinking, feeling AI. The writers and the creatives behind this, tackles this concept not in a matrix'y Turing kind of way and that's what's so profoundly cool about it. I found myself empathizing to the on screen characters, NPCs, gamer characters, the coders, you name'em. Molotov girl's reaction to her moment was brilliant, how the story unfolds and how it ends is satisfying despite the tragedy of it's setting. If you did not like this on your first watch, see it with a philosophical perspective the second time around.

Ryan Reynolds good job, erm great job producing this … Expand

Really nice movie though i have one problem with it. The character introductions. I found out who was the main villain pretty much at the very end of the movie. I still recommend it though.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I found it an interesting start, approaching the themes of "movies in game worlds". Already the medium had some unnecessary moments; the ending (no spoiler) was not what I would think of the best.… Expand

Love the movie, somehow it turned out to be so good even along with two other Reynolds films released this same year. Saw it with family on my birthday and didn't regret one second of it we all loved it.

A film that showed that games are not just a means to earn money and to obtain pleasure, but also to change the world and connect people with each other.

Did I enjoy it? Yes. Is it a flawless masterpiece? Maybe not. Did I smile throughout the whole film just because how fun it is? Hell yeah.

The movie has a clever premise that works well as a metaphor for living an unassuming life and then choosing to make an impact. Ryan Reynolds is perfectly cast as the lovable but naive Guy, and he brings a lot of humor and heart to the role. The visual effects are colorful and create an authentic looking game world. The action scenes are creative and well choreographed.

Some of the strongest elements of the film are the comedic side characters played by Lil Rel Howery, Taika Waititi and Joe Keery. They add a lot of fun and eccentricity to the story. Shawn Levy directs with a light touch that balances the action and comedy well.

The main weaknesses of Free Guy are a somewhat predictable plot and one-dimensional villains. The romantic subplot between Guy and Molotov Girl (Jodie Comer) also feels tacked on and underdeveloped.

Free Guy is a fun and entertaining summer blockbuster that succeeds based more on its creative concept, visuals and comedic performances rather than a deep or unique story. However, for fans of action comedies and Ryan Reynolds' particular brand of humor, Free Guy delivers plenty of laughs and some heartwarming moments to make it a good way to spend 2 hours escaping reality.… Expand
