About this movie

When aliens misinterpret video-feeds of classic arcade games as a declaration of war against them, they attack the Earth, using the games like PAC-MAN, Donkey Kong, Galaga, Centipede and Space Invaders as models for their various assaults. President Will Cooper (Kevin James) has to call on his childhood best friend, ’80s video game champion Sam Brenner (Adam Sandler) to lead a team of old-school arcaders (Peter Dinklage and Josh Gad) to defeat the aliens and save the planet.

Ratings and reviews

Would have liked the movie better if the words 'woman' and 'girl' were not used as a term to insult people. Not a great moment watching that happen with my daughter sitting with me. There were other terrible moments relating to how women were portrayed littered through this movie. Other bad bits? Plot. Weird dialogue. Good bits? Graphics were amazing. Good moments of nostalgia.

I hate it because it had crude humor and was to much about *sexy girls* and stuff like that. I only loved pacman because he was cute. The story line is worse then good. Id say it was OK.

Disappointing. This movie could have been good. Really good. So many possibilities and it was wasted on watered down humour and an almost non existant story line which was cheesy and thin.
